The academic catalog is not a contract between J. D. Williams, Sr. Bible Institute and the student.  JDWSRBI makes every effort to include applicable academic and non-academic information available at the time of publishing the annual catalog.  Web-based catalog content will continue to be updated as new information becomes available and represents the most accurate version of the catalog.

 

While all students must follow academic programs as listed in the catalog in effect at the time of entrance or re-entry to the Institute , any changes instituted by the faculty or administration become effective when official notification is published unless otherwise stated and may differ from the entering catalog.

 

Students are expected to satisfy the degree requirements of the respective entry year catalog within eight years.  After a period of eight years or upon re-entry to the institution, a student will be expected to satisfy the degree requirements of an active catalog year, eight years old or less.

The prevalent mentality of the day is intent on tolerance and policing certain words and activities deemed inappropriate or incorrect according to their own vacillating set of values. J. D. Williams, Sr. Bible Institute believes that the eternal truths and values of the Word of God, rightly divided, with doctrinal integrity, are principles that pervade all areas of life and education.

The Apostle Paul writing to the Corinthian church states, “10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (1 Corinthians 1:1-10).

​

I would conclude from the above Scripture that ‘in everything, we are enriched, in all utterance and in all knowledge, to come behind in nothing and while we are waiting for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are to speak and teach the same thing, and harbor no divisions in the body, but to perfectly joined together in the same mind and the same judgement.’ We are uphold the standards of apostolic teaching and living. JDWSRBI will be a place where our lives should be impacted by the Infallible Word of Jesus Christ, as well as our speech, values, service, education and relationship one with another. Our aim also is that our students are educated from biblical worldview that prepares them for effective ministry.

​

We are committed to our Lord Jesus Christ and to prepare men and women for the ministry to reach lost for the sake of Jesus Christ.
