The classes "Biblical Studies and Life Transformation" consists of nine different compulsory subjects including mentor groups which all students participate in. These classes are primarily scheduled during mornings and will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to biblical subjects and topics that will give you a solid foundation for your future life and ministry.
We believe that knowing the Bible and knowing the Holy Spirit as a dynamic Power, Friend, and Companion, are the two main keys to a transformed and renewed life.
Jesus Himself says: “You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures, or the power of God.” Matt. 2:29b.
Grace and truth came with Jesus Christ. Grace has this amazing ability to embrace the most unlovable and makes room in the hearts of those who receive it so that they can hear and appropriate the truth that has the power to transform and set free.
Even though the Scriptures hold the truth, Jesus promised us that His Spirit would lead us into all the truth. The combination of these two keys has inspired us to wire this course so that you would be transformed and equipped.
Content of the course:
Biblical Survey - This course is designed to equip you with a broad vision and an understanding of the books of the Bible, in relationship to their context, to the Bible and to our present life.
Biblical Tools - This class provides principles and tools of interpretation as well as historical, geographical and cultural background information to help you to understand and apply the Bible.
Communication - Communication is an art that requires training, sharing of skills and improvement. We believe that you can become a better communicator, and this is why we focus on having time set aside to learn communication skills.
Doctrine - Understanding the core of Christian faith is a vital necessity. Here we explore who God is, who Christ is, and the work and Person of the Holy Spirit. Keeping a biblical point of view, we examine various perspectives of man, salvation, and the reason for the Church's existance.
Equipment for Ministry - Relevant life application messages and ministry opportunities.
Current Topics/Ethics - Discussing and debating some of the hottest issues.
Modules - Studying biblical books in depth – here we explore Genesis, Exodus, Joshua, Nehemiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Haggai, Zechariah, the Gospels, Acts, and Romans. In addition to that, there will be teaching on Church History and Missions.
Sports - Physical training, swimming, group sports or power walking.
Mentor groups - A small group environment that facilitates personal training and accountability. Students benefit from the input of each other and of the respective teacher.
Praise and Worship - This is a natural part of our life at the College. It is our desire for our daily worship sessions to impart God’s presence through e.g. songs and instrumental music, in order to inspire us – both corporately and individually – in our relationship to God. |
