About this course
About this course
Welcome to The Truth About Salvation. The title of this course is simple, but Apostle Banks must take you on a particular path in order for you to understand the totality of being made in the image of God. She begins with a subject whose authenticity is being challenged on every hand: the saving of the soul. This is the great mystery that was hidden in God until the forming of the Church.
Apostle Banks writes, "First of all, I want you to understand salvation is a lot more than we thought it was. Even though we have been saved and filled with the Holy Ghost, we do not understand the extent of what God has done or allowed us to experience as sons of God." She is thoroughly convinced that the revelation of salvation, which can only be found in the mystery of Christ, is the missing information that will bring the Body of Christ into the unity of the faith.
The course moves through four lessons:
- Setting the Boundaries of the Faith, the difference between the things that pertain to the spirit of the world and the things that pertain to the Spirit of God, and the four attributes of "that life" which forms the boundary of the faith.
- The Mystery of Christ, what the word mystery means, why it was revealed only to holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit, and why it is relative to the residency of the Sons of God on the earth.
- The Saving of the Soul, what it means that Adam was a "living soul," the scriptural proof that the soul is the master of the body, what it truly means to believe, and the plea of the soul before salvation.
- The Atonement, the conditions for salvation, the meaning of atonement, baptize and regenerated, the difference between the first and the last Adam, and the newness of life belonging to the regenerated soul.
Who this course is for
Believers and ministers who want a complete revelation of their own salvation experience, and students preparing to install these truths in the Body of Christ.
