The LRF runs a catechism class for children in which bible history is taught for the first few years following the catechism material developed by the PRCA. The LRF has just finished going through Old Testament History for Juniors and New Testament History for Juniors, and we publish here the lesson outline plans developed and used by our pastor to teach these lessons.

Each lesson outline comes as a handy PDF formatted to be printed as a single double-sided page with narrow margins. Download the attachment below.

Essentials of Reformed Doctrine is a systematic doctrine class aimed at older teenagers, but adapted in Ireland for adults who want to learn all the doctrines of Christianity.

Lesson 10 is "Man in The State of Original Righteousness."

The main subjects covered in this Lesson are:

Part 1: Man as the crown od God's creation; man created in God's image (original knowledge, holiness and righteousness). 

Part 2: Adam's relation to God (a covenant relationship not of works); Adam's relationship to Eve; Adam's relation to mankind and creation.

Lesson 8 is "Creation."

The main subjects covered in this lesson are: 

Part 1: What creation is: the creation week as real history; man as crown of the creation.

Part 2: Evolution rejected; theistic evolution rejected.

The framework hypothesis is the idea that Genesis 1 is not literal history, but a literary device: this pamphlet defends the historical Genesis.

Genesis 1-11 is literal history: this must be confessed against all forms of evolution. Salvation depends on it.

There are two views of origins: creation and evolution. The Bible only teaches creation.

One of the manifestations of God's covenant was with Noah and creation: what does this mean?

If Calvin were alive today would he be a six day creationist or a theistic evolutionist?
