The Believer's Lab holds that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and the final authority for faith and life. We read it in its plain, normal sense, quote the King James Version throughout, and explain its older words in plain English. We teach salvation by grace through faith alone, the eternal security of the believer, and a dispensational, premillennial reading of Scripture.
Where faithful Christians differ, we present each view fairly and in the words its own defenders would use. Our aim is clarity, conviction and charity.

Yes. Every session includes discussion questions and small-group applications, so the Lab works well for preparing a lesson or leading a group through a course together.

"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
