Discipleship 101: Jesus Our Savior

This first volume in the Fourfold Gospel New Believers’ Discipleship Series introduces the foundational Christian truth that Jesus Christ is our Savior. Rooted in the theological heritage of The Christian & Missionary Alliance and the teachings of Dr. A. B. Simpson, this handbook is designed to help seekers, new believers, and growing Christians establish a firm biblical foundation in the saving work of Jesus Christ.

In an age marked by spiritual confusion, emotional brokenness, and the search for meaning, this resource presents the gospel message in a clear, accessible, and Christ-centered manner. It explains humanity’s need for salvation, the meaning of sin and repentance, the grace of God through the cross of Christ, and the assurance of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

Through five carefully structured lessons, readers are guided to explore:

  • who Jesus Christ truly is,

  • why salvation is necessary,

  • the meaning of repentance and faith,

  • assurance of salvation,

  • and how to begin living as a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Special emphasis is placed on helping believers move beyond mere intellectual understanding into a living relationship with Christ. The handbook teaches that salvation is not simply a religious concept, but the beginning of a transformed life marked by forgiveness, spiritual renewal, and ongoing discipleship.

Designed for personal devotion, baptism preparation, one-on-one mentoring, small group discipleship, and church education ministries, this resource combines biblical teaching, Scripture reflection, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and practical discussion questions suitable for both individuals and ministry settings.

Written in a clear and pastoral style while maintaining theological depth, this handbook seeks to help believers grow in confidence, spiritual maturity, and commitment to Christ. Ultimately, it points readers to the central message of the Fourfold Gospel: that Jesus Christ alone is the Savior who redeems, restores, and gives eternal life to all who place their trust in Him.

Discipleship 102: Jesus Our Sanctifier

This second volume in the Fourfold Gospel New Believers’ Discipleship Series focuses on the biblical teaching of Jesus Christ as our Sanctifier — the One who not only saves believers, but also transforms them into Christlike maturity through the work of the Holy Spirit.

Grounded in the spiritual heritage of The Christian & Missionary Alliance and the teaching of Dr. A. B. Simpson, this handbook introduces readers to the lifelong journey of sanctification, spiritual growth, repentance, obedience, and deeper surrender to Christ. It emphasizes that sanctification is not merely moral self-improvement, but allowing the life of Christ to be formed within believers through daily dependence upon the Holy Spirit.

Through five carefully structured lessons, readers are guided to explore:

  • the meaning of sanctification,

  • repentance and dealing with sin,

  • working out salvation with spiritual perseverance,

  • Dr. A. B. Simpson’s understanding of the “Deeper Life,”

  • and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit.

Each lesson combines biblical teaching, Scripture reflection, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and practical discussion questions designed for personal devotion, small group discipleship, baptism preparation, and church education ministries. The handbook is written in a clear and accessible style while maintaining theological depth suitable for both new believers and church leaders.

This resource seeks to help Christians grow beyond conversion into a mature, Spirit-filled life that reflects the character, holiness, and mission of Jesus Christ.

Discipleship 103: Jesus Our Healer

This third volume in the Fourfold Gospel New Believers’ Discipleship Series explores the biblical truth that Jesus Christ is not only our Savior and Sanctifier, but also our Healer. Rooted in the spiritual heritage of The Christian & Missionary Alliance and the teaching of Dr. A. B. Simpson, this handbook presents divine healing as an expression of Christ’s compassion, redemption, and continuing ministry through the Holy Spirit.

The handbook addresses important questions that many believers struggle with today:
Do miracles and healing still happen? What does it truly mean to say “Jesus is our Healer”? How should Christians pray for healing, both for themselves and for others? Through careful biblical teaching, theological reflection, and practical discipleship application, this resource guides readers toward a balanced and Christ-centered understanding of healing ministry.

Across five structured lessons, readers are introduced to:

  • the continuing reality of miracles and divine healing,

  • the healing ministry of Jesus Christ,

  • Dr. A. B. Simpson’s theology of healing,

  • receiving healing prayer with faith and humility,

  • and praying for healing for others under Christ’s authority.

Special emphasis is placed on avoiding both unbelief and unhealthy extremes. The handbook teaches that healing is not spiritual performance or manipulation, but a humble response to God’s grace and sovereignty. It also highlights the connection between physical healing, emotional restoration, forgiveness, sanctification, and spiritual growth.

Designed for new believers, discipleship classes, small groups, and church training ministries, this resource combines Scripture study, guided reflection, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and discussion questions to help believers deepen their trust in Christ and minister compassionately to others. Ultimately, the handbook points readers beyond miracles themselves to a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ — the One who restores body, mind, and spirit.

Discipleship 104: Jesus Our Coming King

This fourth volume in the Fourfold Gospel New Believers’ Discipleship Series explores the biblical teaching that Jesus Christ is not only our Savior, Sanctifier, and Healer, but also our Coming King. Rooted in the theological heritage of The Christian & Missionary Alliance and the teachings of Dr. A. B. Simpson, this handbook introduces believers to the Christian hope of Christ’s Second Coming and its significance for daily spiritual living.

In a world increasingly marked by uncertainty, global conflict, moral confusion, and spiritual anxiety, this resource seeks to guide believers toward a balanced, Christ-centered understanding of biblical eschatology. Rather than promoting fear, speculation, or sensational predictions, the handbook emphasizes that the return of Jesus is meant to inspire faithfulness, holiness, spiritual watchfulness, and commitment to God’s mission.

Through five carefully developed lessons, readers are introduced to:

  • the biblical meaning of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ,

  • the rapture of the church,

  • the Christian & Missionary Alliance understanding of end-times teaching,

  • spiritual preparation for Christ’s return,

  • and living faithfully within God’s calling and eternal purposes.

Special attention is given to the teachings of Jesus in Matthew 24–25, the Apostle Paul’s teaching on the rapture, and Dr. A. B. Simpson’s understanding of the “Blessed Hope.” The handbook carefully explains difficult topics such as the rapture, tribulation, watchfulness, and Christian mission in a way that is biblically grounded, spiritually balanced, and accessible to both new believers and church leaders.

Designed for personal devotion, baptism preparation, small group discipleship, and church education ministries, this handbook combines Scripture study, theological reflection, practical application, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and discussion questions to help believers deepen their understanding of God’s redemptive plan for history.

Ultimately, this resource reminds Christians that the return of Jesus Christ is not merely a future doctrine, but a present source of hope, spiritual urgency, and faithful discipleship. Believers are encouraged to live with confidence, holiness, and active participation in God’s mission while awaiting the glorious return of Christ the King.
