Christian Worker Level Courses At The AIBI The Christian worker level courses at the Asian Internet Bible Institute are designed for those who have been Christians for a while and have some basic bible and theological knowledge. They involve studying an etext which can be downloaded for free. The course are for bible-believing, born-again Christians of evangelical, charismatic or Pentecostal persuasions. Students should be able to say they are a born-again Christian and agree with the Apostles Creed before enrolling. Please note that we use adult-learning strategies designed to stretch students a little. We do not expect you to "agree with everything" and you may even find some topics rather controversial (at least we hope so). May you be blessed and grow in Him. |
