BSF Raleigh Young Adults Class

Bible Study Fellowship is a community of people seeking to dive deeper into the Word of God and to grow closer to the Lord and to each other. Whether you have never read the Bible before or have studied it for years, BSF’s unique approach to the Bible and to fellowship will give you the opportunity to explore like never before. For over half a century, BSF has been changing people’s lives around the world. We have the special opportunity of digging deep with other single and married 18-40 year-olds. The result is friendship and sharing that is honest, rich and inviting. BSF’s unique 4-fold approach allows genuine study to flourish. Weekly questions, small group discussions, lecture times and historical notes invite you to ask honest questions and explore the Bible in a study that brings it to life like few others can. Whatever amount of time you think you have to spend, you will receive ample reward back for your efforts! We meet Tuesday nights, 7 pm, (with pre-class fellowship from 6:45-7) at Church of the Apostles – right next to North Hills, allowing plenty of chances to grab dinner or hang out nearby! Other large group fellowships give us time to have fun together, encouraging each other and growing in faith. Due to the times, we are currently meeting by Zoom, so participants from all over have joined us. Come join us, too, as we pursue Christ, explore life’s big questions and grow deeper friendships! We can’t wait to see what the Lord has planned!

Mission: We believe that the 66 books of Holy Scripture as originally given are in their entirety the Word of God verbally inspired and wholly without error in all that they declare and, therefore, are the supreme and final authority of faith and life. We believe in one Triune God — Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe in the Virgin Birth and the Deity of Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, who is also Son of Man, with two distinct natures in one Person forever. We believe the vicarious substitutionary death of Jesus Christ on the cross made atonement for the sin of the world, efficient for all who repent and believe. We believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, which ensures the resurrection of all believers who have received God's gift of eternal life. We believe also in a resurrection of judgment in regard to unbelievers who reject the gospel. We believe in the imminent, visible and bodily return of Christ to this earth to set up His kingdom and to judge the world in righteousness. We believe that man was originally created in the image of God, that he fell into sin through the first Adam and that he is responsible for all sin he has committed. Sin causes him to be separated from God and lost eternally. We believe that salvation from everlasting punishment and entrance into a state of fellowship with God are secured only by a personal belief that Christ bore our sins in His own body on the cross and by a definite receiving of Christ, through the Person of the Holy Spirit, into one's inner being. This is to receive eternal life and to be sealed unto the Day of Redemption. We believe that the Holy Spirit thus indwells all who receive Jesus Christ as both Savior and Lord. We believe that the Holy Spirit is responsible for the quickening from death into life and for the continuing of the work of sanctification in the believer. We believe that the church is the body of Christ, a spiritual organism of born again believers who are called to be identified with Christ in baptism and to remember His death in the Lord's Supper. We believe that all believers are called to be in the world but separate from it. We believe that Christians are called to witness for Christ, to preach the gospel to all nations, and to study the Bible personally through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit until each one is matured into the preordained purpose of God for him.
