Biblical Counseling III (3 Credits) -

Eschatology: Doctrine of “Last Things” (3 Credits) -
This class presents a study of: the State between Death and the Bodily Resurrection; the Second Coming of Christ Jesus and the Final Judgment of all people; the End of the present heavens and this present world, with all things being made perfect and new; the Eternal Damnation and Separation into the Lake of Fire for all people who reject Christ Jesus as their personal God and Savior; the Eternal Salvation, in the Kingdom of God for all true believers who have received Christ Jesus, as their personal God and Savior.  “The eye has not seen and the ear has not heard… the things which God has prepared for them who love Him, but God has revealed them to us by His Spirit” (1 Cir. 2:9-10).  Come and study God’s plan for your eternal future.  You will be blessed.

Instructor: Prof. Franklin Clark, B.Th., M.B.S., M.Div. Cand.


The Book of Isaiah (3 Credits) -
Isaiah is regarded as one of the greatest of the Old Testament prophets, because he is preeminently the Prophet of redemption.  Isaiah’s exhortations and warnings of God’s judgments, which are mingled with predictions of better days and the coming of the Messiah, will be a guide and a blessing for you today.

Instructor: Prof. Robert A. Miles, B.S., M.S., M.Div., M.Th., D.Min. Cand.


The Art of Preaching (3 Credits) -
Have you ever felt God's call in your life to preach His Word?  This class is designed to teach you HOW TO PREPARE SERMONS AND HOW TO PREACH THEM EFFECTIVELY.  We will cover: method, composition and delivery of sermons in this class.  This is an exciting class and even experienced preachers are helped by it.  Don't miss this class if God has Called you to preach and teach His holy Word.  The Apostle Peter said:  "In the last days, God says:  I will pour out my Spirit on all people.  Your sons and daughters will prophesy/preach" (Acts 2:17).  If speaking in public frightens you, this class is guaranteed to give you confidence as you speak for Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

Instructor: Prof. Gary K. Heald, B.Th., M.Div. D.Min. Cand.


The Book of Acts (3 Credits) -
In this class we will study the only book in the Bible that covers the New Testament Church’s first three decades, by Luke, the same author who wrote the Gospel of Luke.  This study will enable the student to see how the Church began its mission, by the power of the Holy Spirit, and how the Lord used Paul to preach boldly to the Roman world, as we should do today in America.

Instructor: Prof. Douglas C. Stewart, B.A., M.Div., D.Min.


The Pastoral Epistles (3 Credits) -
In this class we will study what the Apostle Paul, a pastor himself, wrote to two (2) young pastors, Timothy and Titus, addressing such important topics as: Pastorial Care and Development of Youthful Leadership in the Church (1st Tim.); Being an Overcomer for the Gospel of Christ in an age of rejection, while even facing persecution and death for one’s faith (2 Tim.); Living a Christ Centered Life by what we do and say in all our everyday activities (Titus).

Instructor: Prof. Douglas C. Stewart, B.A., M.Div., D.Min.


The Epistle to the Galations (3 Credits) -
In this class we will study Paul’s letter to the Galations, as if it were written to us today.  You will find that this is probably his sternest defense against false teaching.  He bares his heart in an effort to teach these Christians the Truth of God (Gal. 4:19) as he presents the Doctrine of Justification by Faith Alone, that the Grace of God, by Faith Alone in Jesus Christ, offers salvation to all who simply believe in Him as their God and Savior.

Instructor: Prof. Gary K. Heald, B.Th., M.Div., D,Min. Cand.
