Forerunner Study Group Program & Courses
The focus of the Center for Biblical End-Time Studies is spiritual preparation of believers for the End Times. A key term we use is “Forerunner.” What is a Forerunner? Someone who understands the storyline of what is going to happen, prepares others for what is going to happen, and can help others when it happens. In the Forerunner Study Group Program, we cover Foundations of the Forerunner Message and The Forerunner Message in the 150 chapters of the Bible of which a main theme is the end times, the return of Christ, the Millennium, and the Age to come.
Foundations of the Forerunner Message, parts 1 & 2:
These two courses teach significant truths and concepts needed for successfully completing the Forerunner Message in the 150 Chapters program. For Foundations of the Forerunner Message, each week participants watch two to three short teaching videos assigned for that week, then discuss the content in a facilitated weekly discussion group via Zoom.
Part 1 is comprised of five smaller courses, for a total of fourteen weeks.
