A Handbook of Christian Doctrine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This book is called a CATECHISM. It is a handbook which summarizes what
the Bible teaches. The main purpose of this Catechism is to teach what the
Bible says about our Savior and our life as believers in Him. It also provides a
special outline to a study of things the Bible teaches. The Catechism does not
replace the Bible but is helpful in teaching us what the Bible says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
