DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

The Scriptures: We believe that all of Scripture (both the Old and New Testament) is verbally inspired by God and is our final authority in all matters pertaining to doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness (II Tim. 3:16, 17).

God: We believe in only one true God; One in essence, nature, and attributes, but existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (I Jn. 5:7).

Jesus Christ: We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, of His shed blood on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins, of His bodily resurrection and ascension to the Father’s right hand. We do not believe that He is simply “a” way to the Father, but rather the only way through which we can receive righteousness, regeneration, sanctification, and glorification. He is, in fact, our salvation (I Cor. 1:30-31).

Holy Spirit: We believe in the baptism with the Holy Spirit, expressed with speaking in tongues according to Acts 1:8; 2:4; 9:17; 10:44-46; 11:15, 16; and 19:6. We believe this experience is distinct from, and subsequent to, the new birth, and can be received by faith (Gal. 3:2).

Salvation: We believe that all who, in repentance and faith, receive the Lord Jesus as Savior and Lord are born again (Acts 20:20-21; Rom. 10:9-13).

Healing: We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the cross has provided healing for the human body (Mt. 8:16, 17; Isa. 53:4; I Pet. 2:24).

The Resurrection: We believe in the resurrection of the just and the unjust; one to everlasting life and one to everlasting damnation (Mt. 25:46).

The Second Coming: We believe in a literal, physical second return of the Lord Jesus Christ (I Th. 1:10; 4:16-17).

The Church: We believe that the universal church is comprised of all true believers who have received salvation through Christ (Eph. 1:22-23). We also believe in and encourage fellowship with a local church (Heb. 10:25).

Gifts of the Spirit: We believe that spiritual gifts and manifestations of the Holy Spirit are for the common good and building up of others today (I Cor. 12:7).

STANDARDS OF DRESS CODE AND CONDUCT

Standards of Progress

Charis Bible College has three basic standards by which students' progress is measured: grace, servanthood, and character. Detailed below are "guideposts" by which the working out of these truths may be measured, not a formula by which these qualities may be attained. As a believer we already possess everything we need in Christ, but must yield our souls and bodies so that these qualities are manifested in our thoughts and actions.

Grace: Second Peter 1:2-3, "Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the

knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue."

Charis is the Greek word for grace. The grace of God is God's favor given to every believer who by faith puts his or her trust in Jesus Christ. Grace is multiplied in your life as you relate with other people. The grace of God, His ability working in you, is manifested as you are willing to listen and understand the heart of your teachers and fellow students, as you exercise forgiveness, as you see the best in people and overlook human faults, and as you are enabled to work with those you may disagree with.

Servanthood: As disciples of Jesus Christ, students at Charis Bible College value and

walk in humility and servanthood. They are willing to put the needs of others ahead of their own desires, and find opportunities on their own to serve the school, staff, fellow students, and others.

Character: It is defined by the example of our Lord Jesus Christ and further explained

by the writers of the Bible. This is measured by your attendance record, faithfulness in paying tuition, obeying rules, and living by the highest moral and ethical standards.

Dress Code

Modesty and good taste are considered the principle guidelines for all students while on campus. Business-casual dress for men and women that is clean and neat is appropriate for classes and daily campus activities. Occasionally, circumstances may dictate a more formal dress. On such occasions, dresses for ladies are appropriate. Suits, or sport coats with ties, are considered formal for men.

Conduct

We expect all students of Charis Bible College to conduct themselves to the best of their abilities, in agreement with the teachings of Jesus, both on and off campus, at all times while enrolled as students.

BIBLE TRAINING INSTITUTE

First Year Courses are subject to change without notice.

Course Title: A Sure Foundation Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 10 Two subjects are covered in this class. The Integrity of the Word expounds on the truth, surety, and infallibility of God’s Word. Christian Philosophy shows us that we all have a system of thought, but

challenges us to examine if it is according to the Word or the world.

Course Title: The Basics of Righteousness Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 10 This class teaches about our Spirit, Soul, and Body and Identity in Christ. Spirit, Soul, and Body is a study that explains how our spirits are complete in Jesus if we are born again and how our souls and bodies should relate to our spirits. The Identity in Christ study shows us from Scripture who we are in Christ—our righteousness and justification.

Course Title: Relationship with God I & II Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 20 This study emphasizes four important truths about God and man’s relationship with Him. The Nature of God is a study of God that distinguishes between His character and His acts, contrasting the Old Testament with the New Testament. Hardness of Heart deals with one of the major barriers that keep us from accepting all of God’s truth. Authority of the Believer helps us receive the blessings God has for us and shows us how to stop Satan from robbing us. God’s Not Guilty shows us from Scripture that God is not the author of our problems, nor does He cause bad things to happen to us.

Course Title: Receiving from God I & II Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 20 This class covers the subjects of Prayer, Healing, Blessings and Miracles, and Harnessing Your Emotions.

Course Title: The Holy Spirit I - III Instructor: Wendell Parr Class Hours: 30

This is an exciting class that discusses the Person and the work of the Holy Spirit. Not only will you learn how He has worked throughout history, but how He works in your life.

Course Title: Old Testament Survey I - VI Instructor: Wendell Parr Class Hours: 60

This is an overview of the Old Testament. In this class, students will study the author, historical setting, purpose, and theme of each book; special attention is given to some of the key passages.

Course Title: Worship is a Lifestyle Instructor: Daniel Amstutz Class Hours: 10

Worship is a lifestyle, not a musical style! Did you know unbelievers worship? Do you feel like a non- musical person and that worship is for the musical people? You will be set free as you learn that worship comes from who we are, not what you do. It is a response, to God’s incredible love and grace. That translates into a lifestyle that will bring transformation to you; from the innermost to the outermost. Learn how to draw near with a true heart! Learn how to be a voice!

Course Title: Introduction to the Bible Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 10

A course designed to inspire confidence in the Bible as the Living Word of God by understanding its 1) revelation, 2) inspiration, 3) compilation, and 4) preservation.

Course Title: Discipleship Evangelism (DE) I-III Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 30 This course has been designed so that anyone, at anytime, anywhere can reach an unbeliever, disciple new believers, or grow with others in the Lord.

Course Title: Galatians Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 10 Paul’s inspired letter which is often referred to as the ‘Magna Carta’ of Christian liberty is reviewed and studied in terms of its great themes: grace, revelation, our identity in Christ, faith, the Law vs. the blessing of Abraham, and life in the Spirit.

Course Title: The Ministry of Jesus I & II Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 20

An overview of the culture and context of Jesus’ life and ministry that will deal with His manner of teaching, the content of His teaching and His declarations about Himself, His relationship with the Father, the Word, the devil, sin, faith, prayer and the Holy Spirit.

Course Title: Healing Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 10

The Christian life includes physical health for all who believe. It is as much God’s will that we be physically whole as it is that we be born again. Before anyone can have faith for healing, they must be certain of God’s will. Faith cannot go beyond the knowledge of God’s will and God’s ways in the area of health and healing. This course will establish principles for health and healing and will explain healing in terms of the spirit, soul and body of man. We will learn what is required of us as faith filled Christians, and what is God’s part in the process of receiving health in our bodies.

Course Title: Bible Covenants Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10

The purpose of this study is to learn about the nature of God as revealed in the covenants He has made with men, in order to develop our faith in God as a way of life today. We will begin with God’s covenants with Adam, Abraham, and Israel, and then we will consider the new covenant fully revealed in the New Testament.

Course Title: Romans Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10 Romans - The revelation of righteousness. The Book of Romans is considered by many as the greatest exposition of Christian Doctrine anywhere in the Bible. The revelation of righteousness is the revelation of the gospel. In this class we see: the need for the provision of, the way to and the power of righteousness revealed in Christ and received by faith.

Course Title: Basic Bible Doctrines Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10 Bible doctrine will be covered in this course. Subjects include The Scriptures Inspired, One True God and The Trinity, The Deity of Jesus Christ, The Fall and Salvation of Man, The Present Day Ministry of the Holy Spirit, Divine Healing, The Return of Jesus Christ for His Church, and Heaven & Hell.

Course Title: The First Book of John Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10

The object of Christianity is our relationship with God - a study through the book of I John.

Course Title: In Christ Realities Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10

A course designed to give us an understanding of our new identity in Christ, the value of our identity in Christ, and how that identity helps us fulfill the purpose and plan of God in our lives.

Course Title: Finally, My Brethren Instructor: Delron Shirley Class Hours: 10

This insightful study through the first five and a half chapters of Ephesians will cover the foundational steps that Apostle Paul laid out before his often-quoted statements about putting on the spiritual armor. This course will enlighten new scriptural truths and empower you to become more than a conqueror in spiritual conflict.

Course Title: The Heart “Essence” of the Gospel Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10

Guilt, Condemnation and Fear seems to be the motivating factors that define many Christian’s lives. Guilt, Condemnation and Fear among believers has been passed down from generation to generation because they have been ignorant of the Heart or “Essence” of the Gospel, and for generations people have struggled to believe the truth of the “Almost too Good to be True Gospel” Because of the ignorance and lack of understanding concerning the Heart or “Essence” of the Gospel, very few people know and relate to God the way that He is revealed in the New Testament. The Heart or “Essence” of the Gospel is all about God revealing His Goodness, Love, Mercy, Grace and Forgiveness and true nature to a Tired, Worn out, and Hopeless world!

Course Title: Essential Truths of the New Testament Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10 There are many truths in the Bible, but not all the truths in the Bible are essential and foundational. That means that there are many things in the Bible that are extremely interesting but they are not extremely important. There are also many truths that are important, sometimes even extremely valuable, but they are not essential. The big tragedy is that many times the truths that Christians major on, and build their lives upon, are non-essential or non-foundational truths. It will not necessarily be what you believe about

healing or prosperity that will determine whether you will fall or stand when you’re sick, or when you’re in poverty. It will most probably be what you believe about the essential and foundational truth of the Gospel, because all other truths must be based and founded on this truth in order to work.

Course Title: Let Freedom Reign Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10

When we talk about freedom, it means different things to different people. For the majority of believers, freedom in a Christian’s life is only achieved through great sacrifice and hard work. When we have sacrificed and labored long and hard enough, we are ultimately rewarded with freedom; freedom from sin or freedom from bondage such as from drugs, alcohol, pornography or whatever we perceive freedom to be. In this teaching we will discover that freedom in the New Testament is a gift. Whenever you study the subject of freedom, as seen in the New Testament, there is a fundamental reality that we must understand about true freedom; in Christ we are all born free.

Course Title: Excellence in Ministry Instructor: Greg Mohr Class Hours: 10

This course covers two key aspects of ministry development and success: 1) Identifying and establishing core values your life and ministry are grounded in. Compromise, deception and failure are averted when core values are established in the heart of the minister. 2) The essential leadership principles necessary for the minister to both lead people to fulfill his/her vision and become a leader worth following.

Course Title: What Faith Is and How to Live By It Instructor: Dan Funkhouser Class Hours: 10

We will be studying how God operated in faith and see that we also have the same measure of faith in our lives. We will discover that faith operates from our heart and our confession of God’s Word.

Course Title: Fruit of the Spirit Instructor: Greg Mohr Class Hours: 10

God’s very first words to man connects our success in life to our fruitfulness. – Gen. 1:28. The kind of fruit each believer is called to produce is described in Gal. 5:22-23. This is a picture of the life and nature of Jesus. This course is an in-depth study of each aspect of the fruit of the Spirit. You will learn the purpose, the rewards, and the means to fully develop and manifest the fruit of the Spirit in your life and ministry.

SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL MINISTRY COURSES Second Year

Courses are subject to change without notice.

Course Title: The Making of a Minister I & II Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 20

Attend Bible College, complete the required courses, receive your ministerial license and ordination papers, and then you are a minister, right? Wrong! God’s ways are not man’s ways. This course will help you understand the difference between man’s and God's qualifications for ministers. By the end of this course you will either be determined to prepare your heart or stay as far away from ministry as possible.

Course Title: How to Get Along with People Instructor: Andrew Wommack Class Hours: 10

Someone once said, “If it weren’t for people, the ministry would be great.” However, the ministry is all about people, so it’s critically important to learn how to develop relationships and develop them with the right people. When conflict does arise—and it will—it’s also crucial to know how to resolve that conflict according to the Word of God. God’s solution works, but you have to know it to put it into practice.

Course Title: New Testament Survey I & II Instructor: Wendell Parr Class Hours: 20

This is an overview of the New Testament that notes its place in God’s revelation to man. In this class, students will study the author, historical setting, purpose, and theme of each book; special attention is given to some of the key passages.

Course Title: Laws of the Kingdom Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 10

A study of the spiritual laws that govern creation and how we can cooperate with those laws in order to enjoy victorious Christian living.

Course Title: Acts: Power for Supernatural Living Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 10

A study of the early church and the keys to its power. Emphasis will be placed on the message of the early church, the purpose of the Holy Spirit, the power of the Name, the importance of the Word, the power of prayer, and the mission and growth of the church.

Course Title: Answers to Important Questions I & II Instructor: Barry Bennett Class Hours: 20

A course designed to answer the most prevalent questions that many Christians have concerning the Bible and the ways of God in the world. Questions to be answered will include those dealing with suffering and tragedies, the Trinity, Job, Paul’s thorn, Ananias and Sapphira, Sabbath keeping and many others.

Course Title: Lessons from Nehemiah Instructor: Lawson Perdue Class Hours: 10

Keys of effective leadership that enabled Nehemiah to motivate God’s people to accomplish an amazing task in record time.

ADM 7/14

Course Title: Seven Messages to Seven Churches Instructor: Delron Shirley Class Hours: 10

This study is based on the seven letters to churches in Asia Minor which are found in chapters two and three of the book of Revelation. Each letter ends with the directive, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” This course explores the topics addressed in each of the letters and applies them to our lives in present-day life.

Course Title: Foundational Truth for Godly Ministry Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10

Since day one in the garden it has always been God’s intention and purpose that every man, woman and child, find and Live a life that is comfortable, gracious, and pleasant! Living our dreams both in lives and ministry does not only come with the gifting God has given you, or the opportunities you have. But by the process of habitually practising, exercising and preparing you’re gifting! There is nothing more beautiful for God our Father, than to see you and me find and live as it were (in the sweet spot) of our lives and ministry.

Course Title: Practical Skills for Godly Relationships Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10

One of the greatest challenges in life is to get along with other people around us, may it be in the work place, at home and at Church or in ministry. Up to 87% of our success in life is directly related to our ability to get along with other people. The problem with relationships is that 90-95% of the people that we deal with in life are either moderately or severely insecure people. To compound this, most of the time we are also insecure ourselves and herein lies the problem. There is nothing that kills a relationship or a vision, and a ministry quicker than personal and unresolved insecurities. It is important to realize that getting along with other people has more to do with us than it has to do with them. Even though knowing God’s love will effortlessly change us and influence the way we relate to others, we sometimes still need to practically work on getting along with other people.

Course Title: Who is Man? Instructor: Arthur Meintjes Class Hours: 10

Just as there is a grossly inaccurate concept and belief about God in the hearts of so many believers today, there is also an equally destructive and crippling belief in the hearts of believers about the value of man. One thing that we must understand about religion and legalism is that it is designed to destroy all dignity and worth. That is why people who are deeply involved in religion and legalism invariably end up with no sense of self worth, value or dignity. If we as Christians are not taught and instructed in a proper Biblical sense of self worth that is based on gospel truth, we will always struggle to get Bible truth to work in our lives on a consistent basis. If what we believe does not make us feel good about our relationship with God and good about ourselves, it will be very difficult to get the truth of the New Testament to work for me on a consistent basis.

Course Title: The Life of Christ Instructor: Greg Mohr Class Hours: 10

God has given each of us a unique purpose and destiny to fulfill. Yet our highest purpose is to be conformed to the image of His Son – Rom. 8:28-29. This course is a study in how you may appropriate and manifest the life of Christ – His character and nature – in the earth today. The focus of this teaching is to help you identify and yield to the image of Christ and to walk in Christ-likeness.

Course Title: Faith in a Supernatural God Instructor: Dan Funkhouser Class Hours: 20

This subject deals with recognizing the ability of God through our lives in ministry. Learning how to appropriate the supernatural ability of God in our lives, it deals with the supernatural powers that be, including: 1) Angelic, 2) Demonic Spirits, 3) The overcoming victorious powers of our Lord.

ADM 7/14

Course Title: Biblical Leadership Instructor: Dean Hawk Class Hours: 10

This course will lay a foundation for the growth and development of the student as a leader. Various Bible leaders and attributes will be studied.
