Task 1
1.1) Planning a timetable will be helpful and also will assist me in making a proper routine. Old
Testament is vital for studying the Bible. The Old Testament has 46 different chapters and thus
careful routine planning is important to study the old testament. In order to become successful, it
is necessary to gain the knowledge of bible in a proper and a structured way and for that reason,
a timetable is a must.
1.2) In the course 45111 assignment 1 there are 5 tasks that are subdivided into several parts. The
tasks present in task 1 contains the creation of the timetable that will include the commitments
and it will include the commitments towards the church, work and family. Planning and working
on this task will require an assessment of the entire tasks that will be taken up for the whole
assignment. All the tasks that are being assigned to me can be done at home due to the
theoretical and the factual base of the work. Thus, the extra time if any will be required go
through the scripture and find out the answers related to it.

Task 2
2.1) It is important for us to think deeply about the way we approach we approach and interpret
scripture because the scriptures are written as a revelation of God to humanity. Thus, we now

know about the god and about ourselves, our salvation and also our destiny. It is important to
mention that believing each and every word of the scripture does not provide us with the
authority of interpreting the scripture a person wants. It is thus necessary to have an infallible
guide (led by the holy spirit) otherwise the person who is interpreting the scripture cannot be
certain about the truth (Aggie Catholic 2018).
2.2) Jesus, for us as Christians, is the place where we believe that God is most fully and clearly
divine (Restorationministry 2018).
2.3) Bible is the “word of God” and this means that whatever is written in the Bible either came
directly from God or the holy spirit has guided the writers to reflect the God’s own views
(GotQuestions.org 2018).
2.4) The 4 major debates in the old testament are as follows:
 The account of creation that is mentioned in Genesis kept the Christians in doubt.
The 2 Peter 3:8 states that one day is equivalent to thousand years. so this means
that 6 days for the creation could have taken 6 thousand years (Beliefnet 2018).
 Are the fallen angles the son of God? Chapter 6 of Genesis speaks about the
“Sons of God”. Some thus believe that the sons were the angels that were on the
Earth. However, another school of thought says that the fallen angels also
followed the leadership of Satan (Beliefnet 2018).
 The prophet of Ezekiel had a vision that described the "wheel within the wheel".
Some people confuse the same with a UFO or a flying saucer. However, it has
been interpreted by others as the god's omnipotent, omniscience and
omnipresence nature.
