WELCOME.
The Good Shepherd Bible Institute was established in September, 1989 and we recently received our National Accreditation which changed us from a Bible Institute to an Accredited University. Over the years, we have serviced many local churches within our community.
Our Bi-Lingual classes are held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6pm - 10pm. We offer Part Time classes (8 years) and Full Time classes (4 years) Come join us in studying the infallible Word of God.
OUR VISION.
The Good Shepherd International University has a vision to spread to every country where it is possible and establish a faculty to educate and teach all those who wish to receive a Bible knowledge to help them develop their ministries in the various congregations to which they belong and also to establish missions and churches, programs and facilities that benefit the community where they are established.
OUR MISSION.
The mission of the Good Shepherd International University is to prepare believers who wish to specialize in the areas that we will provide through the studies that we are giving. Our mission is also to provide to all those who are interested, the largest and best education possible under the biblical teachings and motivate them to achieve the purpose of God in their lives.
FAITH DECLARATION
We Believe That....
The whole Bible is to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. The Bible is our sole rule of faith and practice. Whatever authority, tradition, prophetic revelation, or experiences have, they are secondary to and only valuable in as much as they are in agreement with Scripture.
There is on God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Lost and sinful mankind is made righteous only through personal faith alone in Jesus Christ alone by the regeneration of the Holy Spirit.
All believers are called to holiness in heart of life, that they are called to lead people of all nations to faith in Christ and growth in Christ likeness, that they may go to God in expectation of bodily healing, and may experience the baptism in the Holy Spirit. We believe that the normal initial evidence of being baptized in the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives us utterance.
We Believe In....
The deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless humanity, in His miracles, in His vicarious sufferings and atoning sacrifice through His she blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His future catching away of His church and personal return to establish His kingdom on earth.
The resurrection of the body; those who are believers to eternal glory in heaven and those who are unbelievers to everlasting punishment to hell.
The spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ
