This is the first in a series of four practical Bible studies which are available to you.

The Bible consists of two parts, the Old and the New Testament. All that you will need in order to do these studies is the Gospel of John, the fourth book of the New Testament.

* The numbers at the end of each question indicate the chapter and verse in which the answer is found. For instance, "16:33" means Chapter 16, Verse 33 of the Gospel of John. Find the answer in the verse, and write it as clearly and as briefly as possible in the space provided.

Although the Gospel of John is all that you need to do these four lessons, it will not be sufficient if at a later time you should desire to do a more extensive study of the Bible.
