Frequently asked questions

The Four Legs of Salvation is where you start — five short units on repentance, water baptism, Holy Ghost and fire baptism, and discipleship, each with videos (or audio or reading, whichever suits you) and a quick Learning Check. It's the prerequisite for The Making of a Disciple, which goes deeper into discipleship itself. Either way, a chaperone walks with you the whole time.

About two hours a week, at your own pace, and there is no cost at all.

Anyone 18 or older. We ask for your date of birth on the application so we can confirm that.

The Four Legs of Salvation — Batch A begins 10 August 2026. Applications are reviewed before then, so it's best to apply as soon as you're ready.

The course has five units (typically like a module), and in each unit are varied number of video lessons which can range from 10-20 and in rare cases, slightly more that 30 minutes. Each video lesson is followed by a short Learning Check. Upon completion of all video lessons (sub-units), there is a Reflection Journal and Life Application Challenge. Most learners complete the full course over several sittings — there's no fixed deadline.

80%. You may attempt each Learning Check as many times as you need — only your highest grade is recorded.

Yes. Each unit builds on the last, and later units (especially in the Water Baptism and Holy Ghost and Fire Baptism sections) assume you've followed the earlier teaching.

Yes, please still work through them. The course isn't only about the initial event, but about understanding why each leg matters and examining whether it's fully present in your life.

Of course. Please reach out to support/your designated chaperone — questions and honest critiquing are welcome.

This mini-course is the prerequisite for The Making of a Disciple (Volume 1), which unpacks the fourth leg, discipleship, in much greater depth.

No — the course teaches that repentance is indispensable 'for the good and the bad alike' (Unit 2E), grounded in the fact that even Jesus, who was sinless, submitted to the baptism of repentance to fulfil all righteousness.

The course notes that the early church baptised believers first and taught them afterward (Units 3D and 5A), and encourages urgency rather than long delay. That said, it's not against baptismal classes — if your local church requires one, please follow that guidance; the emphasis is simply on not delaying unnecessarily once you believe.

Unit 3D addresses this directly: those who have no genuine opportunity for baptism are treated as an exception, not the rule. The concern raised throughout the course is about someone who has the opportunity to be baptised and refuses or delays — not about those in circumstances beyond their control.

Unit 4A draws a careful distinction between receiving 'the gift of the Holy Ghost' (the Spirit Himself, singular) and 'the gifts of the Holy Ghost' (spiritual gifts, plural) — these are described as two different experiences, not identical.

Unit 4B explores this question directly and concludes that the language points to the Spirit's ignition and empowering work in a believer's life — not literal, physical flames — while still describing this as a real, transformative dimension of the Spirit's coming, not merely a metaphor with no effect.

Unit 5A addresses this directly: grace itself is described as 'a teacher' (Titus 2:11–12) that instructs believers toward godly living, and salvation by grace without ongoing teaching is described as incomplete.
