Principles of the Christian Religion has been developed for use in Christian school and Sunday School settings, primarily at the high school and adult level. The core of Principles is William Gadsby's Baptist Catechism with its 109 questions and answers, including scripture proofs. Principles of the Christian Religion – Student edition uses a workbook style approach to present and apply each of the catechism questions. It is presumed that the student will have at least a basic understanding of God's Word. However, since the English language is constantly changing, most of the questions include an opportunity to define key words especially as they are used in a theological context. When appropriate, follow-up application questions are also provided to encourage the student in recognizing the relevance of these principles in daily life.
