Historic, Strongly Biblical Founded College

God's Bible School & College established since the 1900. God has touched a man named Martin Wells Knapp back then to start a Missionary Training School to spread the Gospel out to the world. God led the Knapp family to this Hilltop of Mt. Adams looking down downtown Cincinnati to establish this historic school.
Back then was time of Chariots and wagons. I've read in articles and seen pictures of a single engine plane was owned and used by this school. However, along the way a thief stole the plane away and was never retrieved.
I believe the devil knew of the work that was progressing with the help from the Mighty God himself. Devil probably decided if this plane is gone the progress of this great ministry would stop and God's work would not expand around the world.
The devil never wins, and so the school grew and reached out into the uttermost parts of the world saving and radically changing lives of thousands of people around the world. The school still stood upright and going on fire for the Lord. This

school has trained thousands of servants of God and sent into the world preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, heart purity and second work of grace "Entire Sanctification". What God initiates no one stops the progress of it, not even the devil has power to stop what God wants to do. God initiated it and the work of God is still on fire and reaching out to souls within USA and abroad. This school has a strong Biblical foundation based on John Wesley's style and way of life "Wesleyan Doctrine". It is conservative Holiness, souls washed by the Blood of the Lamb that was slain. This College now has produced Missionaries, Preachers, Christian Teachers, Christian Musicians and Children's Ministry Workers to spread the work of God.
The Current Administrative hierarchy of the College includes president Michael Avery, Student Affairs Mr. Richard Miles, Academics Dr. Ken farmer, ADEP Dr. Mark Bird and Financial Controler David Frederick with Pr. Tom Butcher as the head of Campus Administration.

President Avery, picture on the right is an amazing and talented leader and an inspirational man of God. Speaks in the Chapel most times with Campus Pastor Mark Cravens. The spiritual affairs of the studenst lives is their key areas of interest among other significant administrative and leadership roles of the College. These men are genuine images of servanthoods, a carring father, modeling Christian and are out spoken speakers of the Holiness Movements of America.                

The Division of the College and Chairs includes, Ministerial Dr. Allan Brown, Missions Dr. Dan Glick, Teacher Education Dr. Marcia Davis, Music Ministry Dr. Jana Pop and General Studies Mr. Aaron Profitt.

This College has provided on campus jobs for financially disable students to cater for their food and lodging. A handful of students both national and internationals participate in a variety of on campus work programs. These on campus work programs are looking at the areas of Maintenance Crew, House Keeping, Grounds, Security Guards, Kitchen Crew and Office Assistance for staff and faculty. Students are committed to these areas of work each day.

The College offers different number of Scholarship Programs to disadvantage students. One of these includes the Wingrove Tailor Scholarship Program for the International Students. These Scholarship programs are sought through the office of Student Admission Officer Steven Buckland current.

I've worked as Security Guard on campus for four years and still working for my fifth year, 2011. My normal duty as been the third shift ever since. I stand out in the cold and fight the chilly weather especially during the winter snow. I've learned to adapt to it though. I've experienced a lot of things working. Caught a thief and handed over to the Police once. Chased away several intruders at the campus. I've encounterd challenges trying to keep a good watch over the school properties. Thank God, with the help of God I've managed to lead a good public relation in all my encounters. Public relations has been the main focus of our boss and student affairs vice president Mr. Richard Miles. It has become hard with classes because I've got to attend classes in the morning after I get off work at 7am. However, I'll praise God for His guidance and knowledge to endure all these encounters. Things work better for the good of them that trust in the Lord. God has been my provider, refuge, healer and my Savior. I've failed God many at times, but again He has been so faithful to me. God has proven this in my life so many times. I tell myself always that, there is nothing better to do then to serve God!

 The students often go out to play, like boys to play football at University of Cincinnati Bear Cat's Field. Had a great and also a tough game this weekend in the snow. I can feel the aches in my body still now. This one standing on the left is Clifford geared up to head into the field to play.

I am here on the right with my buddies after we got done playing. We were about to leave with a lot of body aches from the game. It was really physical and tough. Couple of our guys got hurt. However, it was a lot of fun playing in the snow as you can see the field is still covered with snow. Sometimes the whole school go out on picnic. That use to be a lot of fun too. Many different games used to be played. The staff and faculty also participate in few of these games to bring some flavor in the picnic. There are always barbeque done for the students and the campus family to enjoy. The student council helps provide the food together with the school administration. I guess the College picnics used to be held once a semester. We love it because it brings relief to our minds from the many school work. Most students stay up late nights to get their home works and readings done. You know, that is required for

college students. Nice for the breaks like this to refresh our minds.  I love this school with my heart.

Living In Christ

Religion

The general idea of religion is to have a Master possess you which would obviously be seen as gods or goddesses. There are thousands of religions in the world today that individuals have chosen to serve their Master under. Religions are found in a family, a tribe, in regions, etc which they come together in unity to worship the god they chose to serve either secretly or publicly.

The most largest religions in the world would include; Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity and Atheism. Animism would fall into this category, but I have a feel that it is dying out as Christianity is reaching out into the places that have practiced animistic worship. For instance, Papua New Guinea. Cargo Cult is also seen a wide spread religion globally but minority group of people still practicing it. Out of the major religions Christianity is the largest religion in the world today. Christian religions in the world yet knowing the truth, but they practice worships outside of the (Bible) book that the faith is founded on. Therefore, not all Christian denominations are Bible oriented faith builders but distinct doctrines in their denominations base their faith on the doctrines as a path leading to the eternal destiny.

Other religions are contrary to Christianity and don't believe in the Bible. However, I wish to challenge the Christians, what really does Christianity means? Is it just a religion? Christianity and or Christian is a word derived from Christ. Therefore, Christianity would definitely mean "Christlike" living like Christ lived. Jesus lived without compromising with the world, but He displayed a humble and loving character. Jesus loved everyone regardless of their status, nationality, culture and race. One significant and unique status Christ had "He hated Sin" He refrained from sin although He was tempted. (Mathew 4:1-11). Jesus taught and preached on heart purity, "Happy are those who are pure in heart, they shall see the Lord" Matt. 5:8.

Christianity is a live lived in Christ. It is a live radically abstaining self from what the Bible commands not to do. Living a renewed life that is transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Apostle Paul, a chosen servant of God has urged us to live our lives as Christ lived. Romans 12: 1-2, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. ² Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will".
I get challenged about how people desperately disobey the scripture and claim themselves Christians. I personally do that myself too, but my hearts desire has been to yield my life to Christ and live obediently unto God. I don't want to willfully disobey God this time but yield myself to God by drawing closer to Him and set my desires and wishes on things that are above. King David's prayer is my prayer today "search me or Lord and try me, see if there is any wicked ways, thoughts and desires in me and blot them all out and lead me to the light and lead me in the paths of righteousness". Romans 12:1&2 is my scripture now. I believe this is what God wants from us all as Christians, and this is living in Christ. We ought to live a life that is radically changed from our past, its not religion but Christ!
Some people do define the word "BIBLE" as Basic Information Before Leaving Earth" and I love that. This a wonderful way of defining it but people still don't understand it. One specific example that people don't take the Bible as a standard information to live the life Christ lived and God wants us to live is modesty; but this has been seen in confusion or deliberately disobeying the scripture. The Bible says, men shall not wear women's clothes and women shall not do likewise. Let's get things in order and live according to the Book of Basic Information.
To sum up, I believe all that said depends on your personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This brings down to " Heart Purity" changed in the heart and doing the things correctly what the Bible teaches.

Christianity is serving Christ as brothers in arms.                           

This picture was taken in our College Chapel, Spring 2011, Mid Winter Revival. Rev. Timothy Keep was the preacher. Rev. Keep was a Missionary to the Philippines for (13) thirteen years. He preached on Beseting Sin found in Hebrews 12: 1. Many of the students found help from the

 Holy Spirit in this revival meeting. This was an amazing revival service, a man of God who lowely speaks and speaks right on points according to the scriptures.   

In this picture (far top) is my buddy (Josh Atkinson) and I. These two other (bottom) Christian brothers in Christ are Ben Agu  and Daniel Kilgore from New York. Friends are friends for ever so long as we are bonded together by the blood of the Lamb. Many of us got help from this Mid-Winter Revival. God's been working greatly in the hearts of the College Students, including Staff and Faculty. The last message on Friday Morning was on conditioning our spiritual walk with God. In addition he connected the sermon with Fasting. Fasting is a way of conditioning our lives towards spiritual aspects. In his experience, people outside USA fast and pray. Pastors fast and pray over the sermon but people in the States do "Dieting".  Dieting is for physical conditioning and 'Fasting' is to get connected with God.

iLife that is surrendered to Christ is the sweetest life ever. There will be needs, problems and struggles in life but the good news is that you are in the hands of the Almighty God. HE cares for you. Amen! Some times we fail God but God still loves us and forgives us of our sins when we take them under the feet of Jesus Christ. The Bible says, The Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.Matt. 26:41. We fail God because of our weakness of praying. Jesus spoke to HIS disciples to watch and pray with HIM so that they may not enter into temptations. Prayer is the power to give us strength in our weakness. When we keep up with our prayers and submit ourselves to God everyday we sense the presence of God in our lives. When the presence of God is felt in our hearts, minds and souls life in Christ becomes sweeter. If we are not keeping up with our prayers we will become lukewarm as the Bible says in Revelation 3:16. The Spirit truely is willing but the flesh is weak. LORD help me in this area so I maintain my prayer life and Bible reading, otherwise I will be spued out in the last days.
