text,
"The Great Doctrines of the Bible" by Dr. William Evans and

all scriptures in your Bible that are referenced in the workbook and
the textbook, and complete
the tests as you complete each of the ten sections in those books.
2. Student may not complete more than one section per week.
Even one section every two weeks is reasonable,
given the depth of the material.
3. If any questions are missed on a test,
even if the test has a passing score, then the student must restudy
that section of the text and find all of the correct answers to the
questions missed.
4. There will be a final test at the end of the
course. All tests will be open book.
-
Blanks in workbook The workbook was originally written for an on-campus course and
was adapted for use online. There are blanks
throughout the workbook that cannot be filled in online. They were left there only to help
ensure that the students are looking up every reference in their
King James Bible.

correct answers which you were required to look up in the
textbook/workbook, and then take the Final Test not sooner than
the following day.

Bible Doctrines II.
Through a study of the "Fundamentals of the Faith" you will gain a deeper understanding of the fundamentals upon which the modern understanding of the Scriptures is built. These fundamentals were once believed by all who claimed to be Christian. This is not true today, as you will find when you study the course,
Comparative Theology, and other courses that address modern and older beliefs. Through this course you will understand better what beliefs are fundamental to true Christian faith and practice..
