A Word from the President Heaven and earth will pass away, but God's Word is everlasting! Souls are dying every second of every day. According to the Scriptures, most are unprepared to meet their Maker! It urgently behooves us to get the saving message of the Lord Jesus Christ to the lost without delay, before it is everlastingly too late!   "There's a call comes ringing o'er the restless wave; Send the light. There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save: Send the light.”   As a teacher or preacher of the Gospel, these free lessons are available for your use We would like to hear about how you are using them. Write us at: sewell6252@comcast.net.   We are looking forward to hearing from you. John Sewell, Ph.D. President Go ye therefore, and teach all nations… Matthew 28:19 (KJV)

Board Meeting Information June 5, 2010   The Board of Directors met on June 5, 2010, to discuss two (2) urgent needs:   • The first was the need for funds to continue the work of typing and posting lessons on biblestudyworkshop.org. There are 169 lessons ready to be typed and posted to the website.   • The second urgent need had to do with the need for writers to complete lessons for the Old Testament. At present 395 lessons are posted, and 421 lessons are yet to be written. Letters have been sent to university Bible professors and teachers in schools of preaching around the country asking for their help. While most report heavy workloads, there are possibilities of some assistance.   Our next meeting will be Saturday, September 11

Give Me the Bible

 

Give me the Bible, star of gladness gleaming,

To cheer the wandrer lone and tempest-tossed;

No storm can hide that radiance peaceful beaming,

Since Jesus came to seek and save the lost.

 

Give me the Bible when my heart is broken,

When sin and grief have filled my soul with fear:

Give me the precious words by Jesus spoken,

Hold up faiths lamp to show my Savior near.

 

Give me the Bible, all my steps enlighten,

Teach me the danger of these realms below;

That lamp of safety oer the gloom shall brighten,

That light alone the path of peace can show.

 

Give me the Bible, lamp of life immortal,

Hold up that splendor by the open grave;

Show me the light from heavens shining portal,

Show me the glory gilding Jordans wave.

 

Give me the Bible, Holy message shining;

Thy light shall guide me in the narrow way;

Precept and promise, law and love combining,

Till night shall vanish in eternal day.
