In section two, lessons are designed to assist each student with the beginning process of their growth to maturity and the discipleship of others.
1 John 2:12-14—"I write to you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name. 13] ....I write to you, dear children, because you have known the Father."
As we can see from these verses, there are two general characteristics of children (new converts) in the faith:
- They understand their sins are forgiven; and
- They know the Father.
Using those two general characteristics as a guide, the following lessons are designed to help a new believer to understand the application of forgiveness to their lives as well as gain a basic understanding of who the Father is. Complementary to these teachings are several additional lessons to help a new disciple gain an understanding of God’s will and the basics of their salvation.
