This Reading Companion was developed in a Bible college context, yet it presents practical truths that have proven useful over the years to scores of people.  The material has been left in the original class by class portions to make it easier to use further in a classroom setting.  Related verses of the Bible head the pages on which they are explained and applied, that God’s words might always remain in our focus.
