bible course descriptions
studying the bibleBible study is recognized at NFC Academy as of fundamental importance and is a required subject. The study of the Bible augments the study of English, history, geography, and science as well as the other academic subjects. Without the knowledge of biblical truth, a student cannot be considered educated. The Bible gives direction for this life, and is the only hope for the life to come. No other book can enrich the minds and hearts of men as "The Book of books."
Knowledge of the Bible is one of the greatest educational assets any person can have. Resulting from its study are the important values of morality and right living. Character development is the most important work of a school. No other course offered in the school affords such great opportunities for laying the foundation for Christian character as the Bible course. Knowledge is important, but of more importance is the life that displays what has been learned. |
