The Bible teaches that we must study to be approved by God. In order to achieve the Great Commission of Jesus Christ and spread his word to all the nations of the earth, we need to know his teachings, his history, and his word.
Inspired by God, Pastor Alfonso Porter taught Jesus Christ’s human lineage to his Bible study students. The genealogy of Christ as set down in the Gospel of Matthew is a record of God’s interaction with humanity. Through study of the biblical record, students learned of the unconditional love of God and his willingness to move through all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
Excited and intrigued, each student chose a biblical figure from Christ’s genealogy. They researched their chosen person thoroughly and wrote short articles on their thoughts on the character from their personal perspectives, growing closer to Christ in the process.
The Genealogy of Jesus Christ presents the results of this remarkable and spiritual research. Thoughtful, insightful, and full of the love of God, these short stories and articles will inspire you to renew your own examination of Holy Scripture.
