Statement of Purpose
& Philosophy
In these last days, it is imperative that men and women who have been called by
God in to full-time Christian service, be prepared properly by using all of the
advantages and resources at their disposal, in order to be prepared to meet the
challenges of the world.
The administration of Southern Bible Institute and Seminary believes that two
of the greatest advantages available to God's people are the presence and power
of God the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. We believe God is emphatic when
He says in His Word to "Study to show thyself approved unto God a workman
that needed not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the Word of Truth."
(II Timothy 2:15 KJV_)
Southern Bible Institute and Seminary purposes to train students in and for
evangelical Christian ministry. Race, class and nationality offer no barrier.
Furthermore, students from various evangelical denominations may enjoy
academic freedom and Christian fellowship.
All degrees of Southern Bible Institute and Seminary are of an ecclesiastical
nature, and whether granted or conferred, are in the restricted area of religion,
with the special purpose of preparing persons to work in the area of religion,
whether educational or ministerial; and are not designed to be used in general
academic circles.
We ask for your prayers and welcome your calls and/or letters. We at Southern
Bible Institute and Seminary serve our Lord by serving you in His name.
Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth
Dr. Ronald E. Drawdy
