LOVED THE COURSE
I AM THANKFULL FOR THE INSPIRATIONAL TEACHING I FOUND HERE AS IT OPENED MY EYES TO WHAT I ALWAYS BELIEVED
After listening and reading through and confirming the teachings with the scriptures. The Biblical narrative has opened my mind to link the old testament to the new testament and how God has always planned to include everyone into the plan of salvation. It has brought an understanding that despite the Israelites/Jews being the chosen people in the beginning, God intended to extend His plan of salvation to everyone even to the gentiles who by faith in Jesus Christ would receive the circumcision of their hearts through the receiving of the Holy Spirit so that everyone becomes the partakers of salvation.
The prophets in the old testament pointed towards Jesus Christ as the Messiah and the true King , the salvation and life Himself.
My learning in this course is not in vain.
AXX has taught me to have a pure heart by doing good deeds and having holiness as an essential in Ministry. Perseverance, Faith, and keeping God’s commands shall be my keys as I continue with this great ministry of Jesus Christ. I have always aspired to teach people the word of God and wish to see the HOLY SPIRIT work within God’s people as they continue being faithful to Him who called them
It has be my wish to study and earn certificates in biblical studies but I never gotten any money that could adequately helped to have this dream comes through.
Meeting AXX online is a miracle to me where one volunteer their time and resources to help people gain biblical knowledge free of charge. May YWH bless you people of God. The CEO And my dear Teacher Pastor Matthew Market I love you so much. May God bless you abundantly in Jesus name.
Please can I get connected to my teacher of course biblical narrative on Facebook? If yes please send your Facebook name.

By the grace of God, I have acquired the skill to understand the meaning of scripture text, how to translate it from the biblical context, compare it with other scriptures, and applying it to my life. Also, I have learned about the explicit and concrete principle of the scriptures which is God’s statement to us on how we should live. The word of God has now become personal to me, before teaching others
It’s been a great journey with AXX , I’m getting equipped day by day and I’m no longer just reading the Bible but context must found.
I have been immensely blessed with this course outline and the teachings therein.
The teaching has helped me to have an understanding of how to approach Biblical teachings, stories and verses in that we should be open minded to the setting of the Bible passages, author, timing, culture, location and to understand the circumstances around those particular writings in the Bible before applying those texts to our current lives. We must create a link and understand the contexts and several clues to various Bible passages.
I return the glory and honor unto God Almighty who made it possible for me to enroll in this course work at no cost. I am grateful to the founder and his executives for being so generous and warm hearted to afford us such a noble privilege. May God richly reward you all.
I thank God for the improved exposure to his word since I joined this ministry. Inherited core values and culture in many parts of Africa’s society interfere with the interpretation of the reality of the text; so that lots of us became religiously inclined rather than scripturally based, if you know what I mean. Most of us can recite scriptures and even quote them out of context to suit or appease the circumstances or a prayer session. For instance: It is common to find many who would quote Luke 1:37 (NKJ) “…with God all things are possible.” I had almost believed that my availability and/or will were not counted if God was involved; until I beheld Andrew’s teachings on contextual reading. I went back to that scripture and reviewed it from verse 26, to actually understand that the angel was addressing Mary, a virgin, who was already pale and shaking, I can imagine, into letting her to believe and confess according to God’s word. Where would Mary have ever got that faith to be the mother of Jesus, if God didn’t help but first believing and then make available. Immediately that happened in verse 38, the messenger left. Since then my perception on Luke 1:37 has changed. I now know that it is not only ‘with God’ but that I have to believe and confess what God says before it shall come to pass.
Notwithstanding, I couldn’t quite follow the extract principle and the example with 3 John 2. I think Andrew was repeating the same thing Paul meant when he said, “I pray that you…” meaning a wish. It is true to think therefore that not everybody were going to prosper as re-echoed by Andrew and therefore can be applied to other scriptures. Furthermore I’m struggling with understanding how Jesus’ comment of not serving two masters tie up with 3 John 2. Can you further help please? Thanks
It has been a wonderful lecture from Pastor Andrew. How to relate with the text before applying to any situation. First is to understand the original audience before relating with the present audience.

I learnt a lot especially on the subject of spiritual growth it made me want to explore more
I have learnt alot about setting goals in life, knowing your values and setting up a system that will help you achieve the things you need to achieve without burning yourself out, while maintaining spiritual physical and social healthy. We need to prioritize things in life for example as illustrated by the 4 quadrants.
It has really expanded my scope that my spiritual and personal health and well being is very important in fulfilling Kingdom works.
I have learned a lot in the area of discipline. Needless to say that all the lectures were taughtful.
I think I need to strategize my priorities
The teachings on values and on goals has challenged me to be organized and give priorities. Am now feeling some mistakes I used to do were avoidable and I will avoid them whole. Thanks.

This course has made me understand my call and help me know my General calling and specific calling.
It has also let me know that the Kingdom isn’t about myself but about the society.
At first my mind was like hearing God voice is only audible but through this studies proving by scripture has let me know the various way of which God speaks and I have known my.
Man oo man this course is an
eye opener
The unit opens my understanding to God’s call and how to respond to it. I also learned the differences between gifts and call. Ministry being service and areas I can service. I learned about Church based service, work or market based service and community based service and aligning myself with God’s purpose. I now see call and ministry much better. I pray that God will help me to align myself to his will.
Wow, first of all I want to thank the Lord Jesus for Axx Bible school. I have a lot some of the things just blow my mind, really this Bible is from God. Words can’t explain the incredible work that u are doing.
Thanks may the good God bless the good work that u are doing.
War is happening to my people. I saw war and destruction before the actual war was happening. I tried to war the elites from community. Except few, no one was influenced and warned by my writing and speaking. Then the war erupted and human and material destruction followed.
I left my job and studied the administrative and political history of my people or region for more than two years. I want to articulate their history, values and administration. I believed this is what I can do to my people and region. I believed that is my call for contribution to create dynamic, vibrant and progressive society. The society is decayed due to the communist political forces halt its progress for political power. They see poor and dependent society is good for their power. So when I took this course it reinforced and refined my understanding and acceptance of my call. Thank you very much, especially Regan.
This course give confidence to continue working on my call and gifts. It reinforces and clarifies my understand of calling and decision to work.
I have learnt alot about how to know that God has called me and the different ways in which God calls people. It’s also interesting that the calling and gifts of God go hand in hand and one need to be careful not to focus on just one of them. We must pray, fast, meditate and learn to listen and recognize the voice of God.

I have learnt about the history of theology and different beliefs about the trinity of God.
I have been enlightened about the Trinity/ Deity.. difficult topic but it has been made clearer
It is very clear that my life has a new meaning now especially that I have gone through this lesson I now have a great relationship with my Abba Father. Thank you so much Axx for bringing this light in me.
For God loves the world so he send his only begotten son to die on the cross of Calvary for me and you to be saved, I’m really thanks God for this college because it is really a blessing from God to us that wants to follow the call of God but we don’t have more knowledge of the will, words of God I’m really learned a lot about our lord Jesus Christ and the trinity of God how it works thanks very much and God bless this college In the name of Jesus Christ amen
it is so amazing how trinity was simplified . One amazing things was how the holy spirit was defined. as church we turn to deem the holy spirit minor from the Father and Son and yet they have the same authority . We are living on days of the holy spirit therefore we really need to understand who he is , the bible says the voice of the Lord thunders and Jesus voice sometimes explained as the rushing waters which is to audible , therefore we need the whispers of the holy spirit to be able to communicate and engage with God.
Hi thanks again for this opportunity to review my testimony . I thank God for his word because now I know why Jesus died for me He even took all my sins and died on my behalf . And I am also thankful for the holy spirit to teach , guide ,pray on my behalf and regenerate me .
Previously l had a blurred perception of the trinity of God.lt was difficult for me to clearly intergret the 3 persons of God as one without confusion.lt made my presentations and prayers haze.After this course l am now well informed concerning the trinity of God,how they are named separately yet working hand in hand for the same cause to establish the Kingdom of God on earth.Some of the jargon was a bit much for me but the teachings and explanation of the presenter in the talks made it all clear and understandable,it opened me up to understand there is a lot of research and study l still need to do to know more about the works of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Overally speaking l was really blessed by this course and l am growing in knowledge and understanding if the things of God,thanks to Axx Global for such empowerment.

I will start by giving glory to God for making me a part of this course. The course is a wonderful one, it really exposes me to the nitty gritty of cross-culture and what it entails. It is a direct program from heaven to bless man on earth. God is really using APC Bible College to bless the believers. My prayer is that God will continue to sustain APC Bible College. I also want to appreciate our Lecturer, Kay, she is a wonderful woman, and she teaches with simplicity and enthusiasm. She has made Crossing cultures / Missionary work a must for me to explore. May God bless her in Jesus name, Amen. Thank you APC Bible College.
I have really we to missions for days but on this study I have learn a lot and get the reasons why my mission have not been so effective. I have learn to know a people’s culture and not taking it evil is very important
To say the truth.am equipped to angage in mission work.Through Kay how to go and approach different cultures.This also has impacted my life to become a good and a servant leader I thank God for Kay.
Am really grateful to have been accorded the opportunity to learn and be inspired through the teaching on crossing ultures mission. Thank you so much for my teacher past Doyle and the entire Axx fraternity.

I love to study about discipleship because I love to learn and enjoy studying. When I came across Axx courses being advertise, I wasted no time and enrolled to study the courses being offered.
From day one I lived the courses and the method of teaching. I have downloaded the teachings so that I can refer to them time and again when need be.
I have been very blessed with the lessons on preaching. We were taught the subject at Bible school, but it wasn’t as clear as I got it here.
These lessons have helped improve my understanding of the Word of God and also improved my preaching.
You people are doing a great job, you don’t know how much your teachings are bless many of us that cant afford to pay and attend a good Bible school. Apart from that you are helping the truth to be preached and also helping to remove the imposter pastors, as the knowledge of God’s Word increases.
The Lord God Almighty bless you ever so richly.
The topics are very instrumental and very informative.
Especially for aspiring church planters.
Me and my wife Kezzy we are at an advanced stage of planting a Church and this lessons are very Vital.
Many a times is when you struggle on how to handle difficult topic. But with the topic having addressed here it has helped in knowing it’s not what I say that matters but rather it’s how I say it.
God bless you.
This topic blessed me so much. I have learnt that a sermon points to someone greater than the preacher [Jesus]. Preaching is to proclaim the good news of a king and his kingdom. The gospel does not come in words only but in power and Holy Spirit.
I also learnt how to address difficult topics in preaching which touches areas like marriages, sexuality and forgiveness. You need to be empathy and sensitive to people’s pain.
I have been struggling with the best way to prepare, present and evaluate my preaching. This has truly transformed my way of preaching. I just lack right words to express. Thanks so much am transformed. Hallelujah 🙌
Word is not enough to explain my happiness over how this course has impacted my divine call of preaching.
This course of sermon design and delivery has really taught me a lot on how to design a sermon and effective deliver it, I was really blessed
