Isa 28:9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?

them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
Isa 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, and there a little: Rom 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh, 4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of
Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith:

I'll tell you my thoughts on precepts. It's hard. It was for me.

Hi, I am going through a Precepts study right now.

On the one hand, it's been providing a very rich look into the scriptures, something I haven't had for a very long time. I've benefitted from the word studies and the usually inductive approach.

Usually. I can't tell yet. I hope I am wrong. It seems like a lot of the study is set up to perpetuate the pre-mil, pre-dis position, "using" the scripture as a launching pad to present and promulgate this position.

It's sad to see the instructor participating in blatant proof-texting to present this position . . . when that's not even anywhere near the emphasis of the text under study.

I have not done a study on Biblical precepts, but would be interested in hearing of studies that others have done and feel they have learned from. Which study did you do, and what is the training you are doing to prepare to lead?
---Bev on 3/2/09


Yes, I have. When I was a young believer. Precepts are hard without Bible tools. In class people did better than I did. And that's when God said you need some Bible tools. And believe it or not, that's all I remember about the experience.

I did the book of Ruth andboth sets of Practcal Christian Living and am a PCL Leader but have not ever led a group yet. God bless you as you dig DEEP Sister!

Done many Bible studies and Precepts is one of them. The discussion groups can go "all over the place" with a topic and the Scriptures seem to get lost. I think the leader could set bounderies and direct the discussion to be more focused, keeping out opinons that have no Bible bases. Have an outline where you want the discussion to go and have informed information. Add some applications. Any study is great with Scriptures. I pray you become a great leader! The main word is "focus".

Hi, I've done the Precepts Course covering Creation. Found it very good, but VERY hard going. Somedays you can feel very demoralised because you can't get to grips with the topic. But having said that I'd love to do another course sometime.

Personally, I prefer the Biblical form of precept study found in Isa 28:10 "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:" Check out Amazing Facts. They offer free precept studies on line.

I guess I need to clarify. Precepts studies are Bible studies written by Kay Arthur. They are inductive and study the Bible in great depth.

Precepts or Mores were given to address the many civil issues in society, but they are not considered more adhering then God's primary directives or commands. For example, the Ministers asked if divorce was lawful because Moses affirmed it. But Jesus said, "For the hardness of your heart Moses wrote this precept, but from the beginning it was not so...for the two have become one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate." Mark 10:2-12.

Beth Moore wrote a book on the precepts and it had many good harhitting ideas that apply to our daily lives. You can find her on Amazon. I know you will learn and enjoy this study as it ties in so many ideas in an easy to follow sequence.
