Each question is paired with an answer and followed by specific Scripture selections, formatted with book, chapter, and verse references.

This book will offer these important truths to a new generation of people who follow Jesus.  \nThis book contains 144 Questions and Answers. This book is written with readers of English as a Second Language in mind. It is constructed in a way that makes translation into otherlanguages simpler. Each question is immediately followed by an answer. Each answer is followed by selections from the Bible. Each Bible selection includes the title of the book,(for example:  \nGenesis). The book name is followed by the chapter where the selection is found (for example: chapter 2). This is followed by the verse or verses where the selection is found (for example: verse 3) . So, Genesis chapter two and verse three would look like this:  \nGenesis 2:3 .  \nCertain answers will contain sentence fragments (for example: Q. 4). This writing style is used by Wycliffe Associates (U.K.) to separate verbal ideas to help readers of English as a Second Language understand the ideas more clearly.  \nPART ONE  \nGOD AND MAN  \nQuestions 1 to 26  \nPART TWO  \nSIN* AND LAW*  \nQuestions 27 to 62  \nPART THREE  \nCHRIST AND SALVATION*  \nQuestions 63 to 90  \nPART FOUR  \nSPIRIT AND CHURCH  \nQuestions 91 to 117  \nPART FIVE  \nPRAYER AND HOPE  \nQuestions 118 to 144  \nWhen you see this mark *, it tells you the word with the mark can be found in the Word List at the end of the book.  \nPART ONE GOD AND MAN  \nQ.1 Who made you?  \nA.
