This catalog contains current information regarding BLCS admissions, diploma and degree programs, fees, policies, and procedures. The policy of BLCS is to give advanced notice of change, whenever possible, to permit adjustment. However, BLCS reserves the right to modify, revoke or add policies, procedures and programs at any time. If a student drops out of BLCS or becomes inactive and later returns, he is under the jurisdiction of the policies and procedures of the catalog in effect at the time of his return. © Copyright 1982 - 2017 by Biblical Life College and Seminary. All Rights Reserved. To avoid redundancy in writing, this catalog is written in gender neutral. All references to “he” or “his” should be considered as referring to both male and female students. Biblical Life College and Seminary was formerly known as Evangelical Theological Seminary from 1982 to May 1995. On June 1, 1995, under the direction of the LORD, a new name was given with a greater anointing and a greater vision for the future of education within the Body of Christ. A Ministry of Restoration Fellowship International Office of the Chancellor Dear Prospective Student of God’s Word: Greetings in the blessed and powerful name of Jesus (Yeshua)! I want to personally thank you for your interest in Biblical Life. As you read through our catalog, you will find several things out about us: (1) we have a passion to train and equip those called to ministry (2) we stay on the cutting edge of what God is doing and teaching to the Church, and (3) we are honest and upfront to a fault. With that said, let’s get started! There are many schools out there. They range from the traditional, regionally accredited schools (that can be unaffordable and even tainted with humanistic philosophies) to very cheap schools that offer nothing more than Sunday School curriculum, which does not facilitate growth in your life but gives you a degree to hang on the wall. You want more than that for your life and ministry! Then there is Biblical Life. Why is Biblical Life so different? We make you work for your degree and require you to develop the skills necessary to function at the level the degree represents. We balance out solid academic and research modules with cutting-edge spiritual instruction that will place the fire of God in your heart, transformation in your life and the tools in your hands to change this world by the power of God. We have dedicated our lives to making your education affordable, not in making ourselves wealthy or building an educational empire. See, I told you that we are upfront and honest. Now the question is: “Are you ready to receive the education you need and also the transformation to become who God has called you to be?” If you are, then read through our catalog, pray, and get in contact with our office to guide you through the enrollment process. We are here to serve as your educational consultants in the Kingdom of God. You will find that He is upfront and honest, too. If Biblical Life can meet your needs, we will point you to the right program. If we can’t, we will point you to the right school. How is that for Kingdom integrity? We are waiting to roll up our sleeves and work with you to prepare you to fulfill your calling in God! Sincerely Yours for Excellence in Christian Education, Michael K. Lake, Th.D., D.R.E. Chancellor Table of Contents Section One The History and Philosophy of Biblical Life 5 Section Two Administrative Information 16 Section Three Articles to Help You Make the Right Decision 28 Section Four Undergraduate Programs 33 Section Five Graduate Programs 40 Section Six International Faculty 50 Section Seven Complete Course Descriptions 53 Section Eight BLCS Services, Helps & Resources 69 Restoration Fellowship International Advisory Board Dr. John A. Looper President, Restoration Fellowship International Pastor, Restoration Fellowship Family Worship Center Cleveland, TN Dr. Jeffery D. Hamm Vice President, Restoration Fellowship International Pastor, Great Harvest Church Pocahontas, AR Dr. F. Clifford Denton Tishrei Study Ministries Norfolk, England Preface to Our Catalog “This catalog is going to be different from any other college & seminary catalog you have ever read.” This statement will be true whether you are just being introduced to the educational ministry of BLCS or you have been a longtime friend, student or graduate. This will be the 28th catalog that I have written over the years. As I began to prepare for it, the Holy Spirit began speaking to my heart. He said “Write it directly to the prospective student and teach him how to make a wise decision regarding his training.” So in the catalog, I will be breaking away from standard protocols in catalog presentation. Here are some things you will need to know to get the most out of this catalog: 1. I will be writing this catalog as if we were sitting down and discussing your education over a cup of coffee. I will try to be as honest and frank as possible. My heart’s desire is that you understand what ministry preparation is all about and that you make an informed, Holy Spirit led decision regarding where you study. 2. In the past, I have written our catalogs for the academic professional. This has allowed those in the academic community to ascertain the validity of the educational process at BLCS. In this edition, I am concentrating on you, the prospective student. For those within academia, you will find that we fully understand what is required for a true semester credit hour of work at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Over the years, our curriculum has been carefully compared to that of regional and ATS accredited schools. The comprehension requirements, workload and testing are comparable. We have striven to maintain the traditional formulation for our degree programs. The only difference you will find in BLCS is that we do not follow the traditional Greco-Roman Liberal Arts schedule of studies. We follow a more Hebraic-centered concept of using only subjects that will reinforce the specific field of study. A variant of this concept is also being used throughout Europe today. The sole purpose of BLCS is to train aspirants of ministry, therefore only subjects that empower the students within their fields of ministry are provided in the course of study. We feel this does not diminish the educational experience of the student, but rather gives his studies a laser focus that will more aptly prepare him for service within the Body of Christ. 3. To make this catalog flow better in the first person, you will find that I will refer to you as masculine. I do believe in females in ministry and that they need the proper education. My wife is an ordained minister of the Gospel and stands with me in ministry. Currently about 48% of all BLCS students are female. So if I use the terms “he” or “him” anywhere in this catalog, I am referring to both male and female. I have dedicated my life to theology and education; therefore, I do not possess the literary skills to write in the first person and maintain the current politically correct, gender-neutral babble being prescribed today. To be honest, I have striven to be biblically correct instead. 4. I am an educator by nature, not just by profession. I will pause from time to time in this catalog to explain in more detail what I am presenting and the concepts behind it. My purpose in this is to inform you about what a legitimate education is and what is not. The end result will be that, whether you study with BLCS or not, you will be able to make an informed choice about the school you attend. 4 Section One: The History & Philosophy of Biblical Life The History of Biblical Life College & Seminary I have been preaching the Word since my thirteenth birthday. I guess you could say it was a spiritual bar-mitzvah of sorts. From the age of thirteen, the local pastors in our fellowship taught me the basics of biblical research, sermon preparation and ministry practices. As I entered Bible College, I was fortunate enough to have a veteran educator as a Mentor. Dr. MacLacklan (or Dr. Mac) was a retired Navy Chaplain, had completed his M.Div. and Th.D. at Princeton, and had spent the last twenty years in Christian education and administration. Dr. Mac saw in me the aptitude and anointing both as an educator and as an administrator. Throughout Bible College, I found myself learning as much about educational concepts as I did about theology. It just seemed to be a natural fit for me. While serving in the military and stationed in Germany, I found myself in the throes of the Charismatic Movement. Many young men and women were being saved, filled with the Holy Spirit and then being called to ministry.

  • “The Pentecostalization of Global Christianity” the Challenge of Cessationism in the 21St Century
    “The Pentecostalization of Global Christianity” The Challenge of Cessationism in the 21st Century Signs & Wonders Seminar - East Africa Baptist School of Theology Nairobi, Kenya * 18, July 2015 Jeff Straub, Ph.D. These lectures were originally given at Central Baptist Seminary in Minneapolis, MN in 2015 by Dr. Jeff Straub. This manuscript is still in development, and should not be considered polished and final. Do not duplicate this without permission. Lecture One 19TH CENTURY ANTECEDENTS TO 20TH CENTURY PENTECOSTALISM INTRODUCTION Today we are here to talk about the face of global Christianity. According to a Pew Charitable Trust study released in 2011, based on data gathered the previous year, it was estimated that the global Christian population stood at 2.18 billion people of an estimated world population of 6.9 billion. These numbers were further divided into a split of just over 50% identified as Roman Catholic, with 36.7% claiming to be Protestants, another 11.9% listed as Orthodox, leaving 1.3% to be described as “other Christians,” including Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses. The purpose of our deliberations today is not to quibble over what is and is not a Christian. We accept that the only proper definition of a “Christian,” is one who has accepted by faith the Gospel of Jesus Christ and is striving to walk in a manner commensurate with the Word of God. Nevertheless, there are many in the world today that consider themselves Christians by one definition or another and the Pew study factors in the broadest range of those individuals for the purpose of analyzing the global phenomena known as Christianity.1 According to Pew’s figures, in the past 100 years the global Christian population has increased from 600 million in 1910 out of a possible world population estimated at 1.8 billion to the current levels.

  • Mark Crooks, on the Psychology of Demon Possession: the Occult
    On the Psychology of Demon Possession: The Occult Personality Mark Crooks** Institute of Mind and Behavior Abstract: The notions of possession within psychiatry, psychology, anthropology, parapsychology, and demonology are evaluated as to their relative de/merits. The sheer quantity of evidence as to the phenomenology (descriptive facts) of possession means it transcends any dismissal as anecdotal in kind (e.g., the academically archetypal Biblical possession case involving the swine stampede — a so-called “poltergeist,” here redefined as pan-demon-ium — following the expulsion of the Legion demons). Copious empirical data concerning possession are the same for all contending interpretations, so the prime question is which interpretation has the simplest, most comprehensive explanatory hypothesis. There is a great logical and empirical rigor that may be attached to the traditional conception of demonology. A stereotyped antithesis between science and superstition is suggestive but an alternative, actual dichotomy obtains between good and better hypotheses, which map the same evidential field of facts shared by Biblical demonology and its competing interpretations of possession. “Satan stealthily creeps on us, and by degrees allures us by clandestine arts, so that when we go astray we know not that we are going astray. Thus gradually we slide, until at length we rush headlong into ruin.”—John Calvin (1549). By Way of Introduction Utilizing the traditional criteria of empirical proof and explanation, demonology can be ** This manuscript was first published in The Journal of Mind and Behavior, Volume 39, Number 4, 2018. I dedicate this paper to my two intellectually empathic souls, Stephen Harrison and John Smythies, who both charitably supported me in my first philosophical and publishing endeavors.

    Subject: Other ministers not mentioned Posted by loonhaunt on Mon, 16 Apr 2007 10:51:23 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message I was just wondering about other ministers such as Jeff Barnett. I think the he was the person who most wanted to be the next Hobart Freeman. That was my impression of him. I heard that he had abandoned the faith message. Also on the discussion of Steve Hill, I know that he still personally trusts God instead of running to man for healing. As some of the ministers in Hawaii mentioned a few years ago that they were having to believe with him because he was very sick before having to do a TV interview and he wanted to trust God. And there were other ministers like Jerry Earvin that I wonder what became of them. Subject: Re: Other ministers not mentioned Posted by william on Mon, 16 Apr 2007 13:23:16 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message Hello Loonhaunt, Welcome to the forum! My wife recently read a book by Jeff Barnett's wife that covered the years they spent at FA, and to my knowledge he is still preaching. I guess there are different perspectives concerning whether or not one has "abandoned the faith message". I personally don't know of anyone who hasn't evolved in their understanding, and application of, the teaching we received. Personally, I wouldn't want to meet a 78-88 model year version of myself! There is a discussion on Steve Hill around here somewhere but I know little to nothing about Jerry Ervin.

  • Ooks, Listened to 61 Freeman Tapes and 10 Tapes of Other Ministers at the Assembly
    Subject: John Davis articles on HEF Posted by jisamazed on Mon, 08 Dec 2008 04:59:27 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message The following was the first installment in the series of 4 articles about FA and HEF written by John Davis in 1983. I was told that people were advised not to read them. However, I'm wondering what everyone thinks of them now with 25 years hindsight. I can include the other 3 articles in subsequent posts, or simply give the links for the website and let everyone read them that way. Hobart Freeman: Mystic, Monk or Minister Permission given by John J. Davis to offer this on YesterYear In Print (6/12/2007) Copyright © John Davis 1983 For the Times-Union Part 1 of Four Parts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Writing About Faith Assembly John J. Davis, a professor of Old Testament at Grace Theological Seminary, has utilized two recent private conversations with Faith Assembly leader Hobart Freeman and other research to compile a four part series --the first of which appears in today's Times-Union. Freeman has refused to grant all media interviews and told Davis their meetings were "private conversations." However, Davis, a student of Freeman's before the latter was fired from Grace Theological Seminary in 1963, told his former professor during their initial meeting he was planning to write a series of articles on the group. The two spoke for approximately 45 minutes following a Faith Assembly service and one and one-half hours on a later occasion at Freeman's home. Because Freeman was adamant about not being interviewed, Davis said he did not pepper him with controversial questions, for fear the conversation would end abruptly.
