Educational Philosophy
The Assemblies of God Bible College is committed to the concept of education as “developmental growth,” specifically spiritual, intellectual, social and physical. The Christian philosophy of learning stands at the centre of the educational philosophy of the Bible College. We believe that God alone is the true fountainhead of all wisdom and knowledge, and that in every phase of life His Spirit and power are present to reveal knowledge. The Word of God is heart, spirit, and final authority in all courses taught, and programmes administered in the college.
