Course Requirements
The Book of Matthew must be read through TWO times before the completion of
the Course.
A Report listing the 25 prophecies presented in Matthew that were fulfilled by
Christ and the apostles – you will have to take note of each of the prophecies
pointed to in Matthew, and write out completely the verses in Matthew, and in
the Old Testament where the prophecy was given. You are not allowed to look up
on the internet, or in any other book than in the pages of Scripture for the
prophecies and their fulfilment.
A chapter-by-chapter brief summary of the Book of Matthew. One sentence per
chapter is sufficient. The idea is to summarize each chapter in your own
words. This needs to be thought out. For example:
1. Chapter One – the Genealogy and birth of Jesus Christ
2. Chapter Two – etc.
3. …
4. Chapter Twenty Eight - …
