The Laying on of Hands Essential Bible Studies

This may seem like a strange topic for an essential Bible study, but hopefully everything will become clear as we dig into the Scriptures.
Key Verse:
Hebrews 6:1-2  “Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, and of instruction about washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.”
