The seventh AIM session containing Church History, World Religion, Denominations, and Church Building F.

  • CHURCH HISTORY

    As one wise person said, “Those who ignore the lessons of history are bound to repeat them.” There is so much to learn
    from two millennia of church history—a valuable course indeed. Includes sections on the early church, Patristics,
    Restoration Movement, Crossroads/Campus Ministry, ICOC, and more. Develop a grasp of church history period by
    period, century by century.

    DENOMINATIONAL DOCTRINE

    Major denominational doctrines will be examined—Catholicism, Calvinism, premillennialism, evangelicalism, and
    different views on baptism, for example—as well as such sects as Mormonism and the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

    WORLD RELIGIONS

    Islam (900 million adherents), Hinduism (800 million adherents), Buddhism (300 million adherents)—so much of the
    world is living in darkness and clinging to error. As Jonah lamented, “Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the
    grace that could be theirs.” A serious look at the major religions of the world, including their scriptures.
    50 useful passages will be learned.
