Vision Colleges Statement of Faith
A Statement of Faith is a way of telling other people what we believe about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Bible, and so forth. This is important because there are a lot of cults pretending to be Christian organizations but are not Christian at all. A statement of faith can be used to indicate whether an organization represents true Christianity.
It is impossible to state all that we believe on a single page, but we believe that this Statement of faith provides sufficient information for you to make a judgement call on our position on the word of God.

Why Vision Colleges - What We Believe
Many of our students are active in pastoring and planting churches in Australia and the United States. Across the continent of Africa, you will find our students opening mission fields, planting hundreds of churches. Some are developing Christian Schools and ministries in the Middle East. In addition, there are scores of Vision College graduates serving as missionaries to Latin America and other developing nations of the world. Some are leading worship, preaching and raising churches in the South Pacific, and evangelising in India. Vision students and graduates are active in 150 countries around the world. As a result of their study and preparation, Vision College students and graduates reap a bountiful harvest from fruitful ministry.
Students or graduates are involved in lay ministry in their local church In youth ministry, ladies and men’s groups, children’s ministry, local evangelism. Some are elders and leaders with a more profound understanding. Yet others are those knowledgeable “pillars of the church” they never preach or teach, but their wisdom is appreciated, their encouragement strengthens, and they are encouraged in the word.
Not everyone who does Bible college is or should be a “minister”. Yet every man and woman of God should better understand the word and where else but Vision Colleges.
How is this possible? Because we send the college to you to learn where you minister and home. No longer do you need to leave your ministry, home, church, or job. You can grow your faith on the coalface of ministry while studying the word. You can be released into ministry while you learn.
