WHAT IS A COLLEGE? **
“College” is a word used to designate an institution offering courses of study above the high school level. Most colleges are liberal arts colleges because they teach in the field of liberal arts; languages, philosophy, science, history, and etc.
A Bible College is a specialized school. In the Bible College, God and His Word are the very center of its activities. Its academic content shows that the Word of God has a vital part in the institution. The Bible is the main textbook in the Bible College and a standard of conduct must be maintained, which is consistent with the Christian profession.
Another distinction between a Bible College and other colleges is that the Bible College does not offer a wide variety of majors and minors that many secular colleges offer. Even though one will receive a certain number of semester hours of instructions in liberal arts courses, none of these general education courses could be expanded to become a major or minor at this level.
The Bible College requires the same high scholastic standards as other colleges.
If the Lord is leading you into full-time Christian service, there is no place where you will be able to prepare better for this service than in a college that specializes in educating and training people for the Lord’s work.
