Christian Disciples who:
Are filled with the Word of God;
Can earnestly contend for the faith (Jude 1:3);
Can rightly divide the Word of Truth (2 Timothy 2:15);
Are equipped with the Sword of the Spirit to defend against the
enemy’s attacks (Ephesians 6:10-18);
Can take up their positions as labourers in the Lord’s harvest
(Matthew 9:37-38).
We desire to equip, educate, develop and grow believers in the
knowledge and understanding of God’s Word, so that they can
apply the Word in their daily lives, and advance the Kingdom for
the Glory of God.
2 Timothy 2:15

a workman that needeth not to be
ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”
