Is your cell group under the guidance of the church you are attending? or just make up by a group of like minded friends?
If its under a church, perhaps the bible study can revolve around the sunday message, re-emphasising the message/lesson given will be a good place to start.
Like members can comment/share on what they had learned or part that they have problem with, or in what way the message touch them....etc..
have fun...

On a sidenote,

even Confucius? taught us to "teach according to one's abilities".
If you belong to the Word-Faith churches .. what mystiv posted will bore you to sleep. And if people backslide because of that .. who is accountable to God? -
ah... but then who will be accountable if one imparts the false teachings of the word-faith gospel?
For it is written
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?” (Matthew 7:15-16)
Well, picking the flavour of the day, that's pretty much what's going on in the church these days isn't it.
Alas, sadly there's no place for truth these days it seems.Originally posted by Icemoon:you should at least tell us your church's theological inclinations.

regardless of how false the teachings, as long as you don't backslide and still profess in Christ, you are saved.Originally posted by Mystix:ah... but then who will be accountable if one imparts the false teachings of the word-faith gospel?

am I right or not?
Hopefully a few years down the road, the person will see the folly of the word-faith teachings.
We use word-faith teachings to buy that few years .. just that few years .. until that person becomes more matured. -
Ok,.... after so long... let me recommend the most essential book you will need in order to do a proper Bible Study....
The Bible.
everything else is a an acompliment to this, either as a guide or a commentry.
the basic questions in a Bible Study are
Who (example: who wrote this book, who are the intented audience when this was written/said ...etc)
When (example: when was this written; ie; hostorical context ...etc)
What (example: what is the message the writer was trying to convey to his audiences, are there any relating verses somewhere else that can help explain this better....etc)
How (example: how are these applicable to their lives, how are these applicable to my life... etc)
Why (examle: if this is a situation/events, why does it happen? ...etc)
*** The key to understanding... Prayer... -

Bible 'materials' - 'truths' will all come from one place. LOGOS.
The substance and quality of LOGOS - Rhema. Will come from the School of Holy Spirit - Your teacher.
This is what i believe.

Thank you all for your contributions, especially to those who have messaged me in private. Your recommendation is much appreciated.
I have no idea what this new world faith is all about- mine is only a typical AOG church who has been using the same cell materials for years, we must have gone through the same books over 5 times- which is why I am searching for materials that will edify and keep us "HOT".
Thanks and hope the rest have been blessed by these suggestions too. -
lol .. the bible has been went through a million times and still keeps people "HOT".Originally posted by katana750:Thank you all for your contributions, especially to those who have messaged me in private. Your recommendation is much appreciated.

ya, the bible is still the only thing we can rely on. I think that the way to determine whether one is a false prophet is to c if he respects the bible and preeches acord to itOriginally posted by vince69:Ok,.... after so long... let me recommend the most essential book you will need in order to do a proper Bible Study....
