Indepth Bible Study Aids
Precept Ministries has developed the Inductive Study aids described in this online catalogue to help you dig deeper into God's Word.
Whether you have 15 minutes a day or 5 hours a week, you can be sure that one of these tools is just what you need to get started.
The truth is that deep inside each one of us is a longing for something more than second-hand experience. We want the joy of hearing God's voice for ourselves.
That's why Precept Ministries believes so strongly in the Inductive Bible Study method as the best way to discover God's truths. Find a group near you.
Inductive Bible Study
Inductive Bible Study goes directly to the Scriptures. You discover for yourself what God is saying to you in His Word. It does NOT depend on human insights.
Inductive Bible Study = Bible > You
Deductive Bible Study = Bible > Man > You
The goals of every course are:
- To lead to a deeper knowledge of the ways and character of God.
- To provide a working knowledge of the Biblical book and enable a practical application to life.
- To develop inductive study skills.
- To see a life being changed into the image of our Lord.
The unique quality of Precept Ministries is that it emphasises training in the skills and personal application of inductive Bible study. The application of this method will enhance the personal devotion of the servants of God and equip them as disciples in a creative mode that is rarely seen today.
