Why Was the 3D Bible Study Series Published? How Does It Differ from Traditional Book-by-Book Bible Study, and How Can It benefit You?

I. Why the 3D Bible Study Series is needed

The Bible is the “spiritual food” that nourishes the lives of Christians. However, many believers find it difficult to understand and digest God’s Word, hindering their spiritual growth and, consequently, the growth of the Church.
In response to the needs of believers today, we hope to provide an accessible and effective approach to Bible study, so that we may “proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ.” (Colossians 1:28)
We believe that in order for people to become disciples of the Lord, they must be helped to fully understand His word. The purpose of our Bible teaching is to follow the Great Commission of the Lord Jesus: "...... Teach them to observe ...... all things whatsoever I have commanded you" (Mt. 28:18-20).
The 3D Bible Study Series was developed to meet the needs of believers and churches by providing an engaging and structured teaching resource that helps Christians systematically study and understand the fundamental truths of the entire Bible.

II. What is "3D"?

1D - Dimensions "Multi-directional"

Multimedia is used to enhance learning effectiveness, allowing learners to listen, see, and think from multiple perspectives to understand the teachings and knowledge of the Bible; and to provide teachers with abundant resources to aid their teaching.
1. Multimedia teaching tools: audio-visual teaching, text teaching materials
2. Mandarin and Cantonesevideo
3. Selection of background pictures and films on the theme to deepen the impression of the subject matter
4. Diversity of teaching methods:
Ice-breaking activities, explanation by senior lecturers, handout summaries, scripture study, discussion and reflection, and recitation of golden phrases

2D--Depth"

Biblical truths and difficult-to-understand passages are taught in a simple and easy-to-understand way, with group discussions, Bible study topics, and practical practices, so that believers’ understanding of the Bible does not stop at the superficial level of knowledge, but allows them to understand and understand the Bible’s message more deeply. , apply the truth to daily life.
1. Bible-based: thematic biblical theology, avoiding discussion of the doctrines of theological schools but providing references.
2. Apply inductive Bible study: observe, interpret, and apply in a balanced way to observe and analyse the Scriptures in the theme.
3. Travelling through time and space: recognising both the impact of the Bible's message on readers then and its application to readers today.

3D - Direction "directed".

Important theological themes, consistently, enable participants to recognise the fullness of God's revelation.
1. The Old and New Testaments echo each other: The theme and key verses of each lesson are quoted from the relevant Old and New Testaments, expressing that the message of the Old and New Testaments is consistent throughout.
2. Interpreting Scripture with Scripture: By studying important theological themes from similar biblical books, synthesizing relevant passages, and discussing them, students can understand the complete message of the Bible and avoid taking things out of context.
3. Continuous and consistent: By systematically completing the entire course, students will not only gain a general understanding of the Bible, but also realize that the Bible is inspired by the one true God, and that its truthful message is consistent throughout the Old and New Testaments.

Fellowship, small groups, Sunday school study sessions, or in-depth individual study are all suitable methods.It is particularly convenient for Sunday school teachers or Bible study group leaders to prepare and lead lessons. The course materials are comprehensive and are especially suitable for regions and countries that lack systematic Bible study materials and experienced Bible teachers.
