(The) Anointing
This course offers students a brief description of the anointing of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament and New Testament. Also, this course teaches students how to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and the availability of the anointing on their lives and ministries.

Apologetics
Apologetics is the branch of Christian theology concerned with the application of rational arguments and historical evidence to the defense of the Christian faith. Every Christian has the responsibility to be equipped with the knowledge and practice of apologetics. In this course, we will look at the basics of Christian apologetics and how Christian theology addresses twelve major areas of objection, ranging from the problem of evil, the inspiration of the Bible, to the impact of science and the person of Christ. We will discuss how the apologetic approach is the key to greater power in witnessing and greater confidence in faith.

Blood Covenant
This course will cover the significance of blood covenants in human history from the first covenant in Genesis to God’s covenant with Abraham and to Christ as the fulfillment of the Abrahamic Covenant. We will also explore our position in Christ under the New Covenant.

Christian Ethics
Different world views on Ethics are investigated, with an emphasis on the Christian view. Controversial issues such as abortion, capital punishment, marriage and divorce are discussed. Ethics of the individual believer and of the Minister are included.

Church History
Church History describes the origin and development of the Christian Church, from its inception in Bible times to today’s modern religious culture. Early Biblical patterns will be studied as a model for evangelism, church planting, church government and discipleship. This scriptural journey will highlight both the successes and failures of organized Christian churches throughout the ages.

(The) Full Armor of God
This course is a Spiritual Warfare readiness assessment. The students will complete three phases of assessment: Assessment of the enemy; Assessment of personal readiness ; Assessment of the arsenal of weapons.

Hebrews
This is a study of two covenants. The differences between the two are life changing, even life saving. First Century Biblical history helps us understand the plight of the Jewish people used to a sacrificial covenant system, who shouted crucify Him, but later wanted to follow Him. Jesus had risen from the dead and had shown Himself alive and well to these same people. The choice they would make in receiving the new covenant had eternal consequences. Hebrews gives us the best understanding of the present and eternal position of Jesus who is the Christ, the First Born, and only Begotten Son of God, Who called Him a priest forever after the order of Melchisedek, sealing the New Covenant.


God’s Word and Your Health *
The Word of God covers all the needs of man. In this course we will be dealing with health concerns. Miracles and the gifts of the Holy Spirit are always welcome but are not always in manifestation. The Word of God is available to all, at all times, for all needs. How to apply the Word is the focus of this study.

History of Israel
A study of the beginnings of the Jewish nation led by the early patriarchs. The progression of the Hebrew people is shown through the various stages of their history from a small number of people to a very strong nation. Their triumphs and failures are shown as they progress in their walk with God from the time of Abraham to the twentieth century.

Life of Christ *
The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the centerpiece of human civilization, yet many Christians are unskilled in the Scriptures that give witness to these extraordinary events. Jesus did much more than die for our sins: He lived to be our perfect example, the pattern after which born-again believers are to conform their life of faith. Today, believers are immersed in a world that violently rejects the Christ of the Scriptures; ironically, our survival as individuals and as a church, as well as the salvation of a lost and dying world, is vitally dependent upon our being transformed into the image of Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Ghost. This cannot be accomplished without a fervent pursuit of the Savior in the Word of God, so we can answer the only question that has ever mattered: “Who do you say Jesus is?”

Life of David
This is a study in the life of David, the second king of Israel. God’s school of preparation for leadership is exemplified in David. The course will examine each stage of training from his call to his established kingdom. Many principles of character development and faithfulness to God are chronicled in his life, as well as his weaknesses and failures.

Ministry of Helps *
The Ministry of Helps is a vital and supernatural ministry that carries a specific anointing given by God for the support of the local church as well as the other ministry gifts. This course covers all aspects of the Helps Ministry by meeting the following objectives.

Ministry of the Holy Spirit *
Understanding the person and ministry of the Holy Spirit is essential for living a victorious Christian life as well as fulfilling God’s purpose for our lives. This course covers such valuable topics as the Holy Trinity, the two-fold work of the Holy Spirit in the believer, the evidence of the baptism in the Holy Spirit, the nine fruit and nine gifts of the Spirit, how to be led by the Holy Spirit and how to live a Spirit-filled life.

Missions Conference
God has a vision for the nations of this world and a course of action to be taken. He is looking for laborers for His harvest of souls. When the work is conducted in a foreign land, the laborer is a missionary or someone who crosses cultural barriers. This course is actually a conference that will introduce active missionaries and give students an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers regarding their work.

(The) Mystery
The Mystery of Christ is all that God did for us in the entire atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ and how to walk in the fullness of our redemption in Him!

New Creation Realities
The students will discover the exciting truth about the “new birth” transformation that takes place in the spirit of man as he comes to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Together, the students will explore what the Bible really says about man as a “new creation” and unpack spiritual truths about the “inner man” and the “hidden man of the heart”. Each student will learn who they are “in Christ” and learn how to make positional truths a practical reality in everyday life!

New Testament Survey *
The Bible is much more than a book: it is a witness to man’s encounter with the one true God. Just as the Old Testament is a chronicle of God’s people, Israel, and their testimony of the Abrahamic covenant, the New Testament is the chronicle of the new and better covenant of salvation through Jesus Christ – it is a chronicle of the birth of the church. Study of the New Testament acquaints the believer with the beginnings of the narrative of the church, providing a basis of understanding for the church today and our place within it.

Pentateuch
The first five books of the bible, known as the Pentateuch, unfold to the Bible student the early beginnings of civilization. We see as well the record of the triumphs and failures of the early patriarchs and the leading of God in the lives of his chosen people, the Israelites. The Mosaic Law, as these first five books are called, reveals God’s expectations for his people in the way they are to live. The course will cover the historical record of God’s chosen people and their ultimate triumph to arrive in the promised land of Canaan

Personal Evangelism *
This course is a designed to teach the students why and how we witness. It is a very hands-on approach to soul winning with a lot of in class role playing and discussion.

Praise Life *
Praise is looked at in a public and private setting. It is viewed as part of the worship experience, but also as a separate activity. It is also examined in relationship to the subjects of faith, righteousness, confession and spiritual warfare.

Principles of Faith *
Faith is more than just the ability to believe and receive “things” and “healings” from God. The essence of Faith is in pleasing God. We have been created for His pleasure.
It is impossible to please our Father without an active effort on our part to live, walk, talk, and minister to others out of our ever increasing Faith.

Principles of Prayer *
Prayer is verbal communication with God; it is that sustaining lifeline in our relationship with God. That’s why Brother Hagin says that “learning how to pray effectively is one of the most important things a believer can ever do in his Christian walk.” Why is that? All of the richness of our relationship with God is accessed only by faith, and prayer is the fundamental expression of faith. In this course, we will look at what the Bible says about prayer and how we can apply those lessons to our own prayer life. Prayer is not just a glorious benefit or privilege; it is a commandment, the primary way we draw closer to God.

Righteousness
Righteousness is an attribute of God. It is expressed in the Old Testament through covenants. In the New Testament, it finds expression through Jesus Christ and is given to saints as a gift at the salvation experience. Through knowledge of these truths and applying them to our lives as Christians, our relationship with our Lord can reach more intimate status and we will be better equipped to function as “The Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus”.

Tabernacles
There are several “Tabernacles” found in the Bible regarding man’s approach to fellowship with God. The main focus will be on the Tabernacle of Moses. Understanding the systems and/or covenants attached to each type of tabernacle and how they apply to us today will give us a better understanding of our better covenant.

Teachings of Christ
Jesus Christ, the sinless Son of God, came to the world He created to be the Savior of man, the Messiah promised by the Jewish Scriptures. Though some scholars would subordinate His status and role as Teacher to that of being our Savior, a closer examination of the Gospel accounts reveals that the former is a necessary function of the latter. Jesus claimed “the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” [John 6:63]. These words proclaimed the kingdom of God come to man, the salvation of the world, the love of God manifest in the person of His Son. In this course we will look at the words of Jesus – the doctrines He taught and the parables He used to teach them, to the religious elite and the common sinner, to the rich and the poor, to the Jew and the Gentile, to the people of His day and those of ours.

The Book of Ephesians
This course looks at the most concentrated doctrinal epistle that Paul wrote - to a maturing church in a very pagan and religious city, called the “Light of Asia”. Various outlines are compared and a detailed approach is used to discover the unveiling of the “mystery of the church”. We view our position, in Christ, and our responsibilities as maturing saints.

Wisdom and Guidance
Wisdom is the God-given ability to make the right decision at the right time. God through His Holy Spirit uses many ways to impart His wisdom and to guide our lives in the right direction. God also expects us to use the wisdom we have received to make good decisions. This course will cover what the Bible says concerning wisdom and guidance, and we will learn to incorporate these concepts in a practical decision-making process.

World Religions
The cultural dialogue of our time is teeming with a variety of different worldviews and perspectives on life and how to live it, and everybody claims to have the truth. However, many Christians are not only ignorant in regard to the belief systems of non-Christians, but also have difficulty articulating their own faith. In this course, we will establish a “plumb line” for the biblical worldview of Christianity and then consider several alternative worldviews on this basis.
