Pentecostal Bible Colleges - SaBC (Seminaries and Bible Colleges)

You may be interested in studying at Pentecostal Bible Colleges. The Pentecostal movement exists in many protestant denominations, but one common thread is that they adhere to several key doctrines such as an emphasis on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, the Finished Work of Christ’s atonement on the cross, Spiritual and Physical healing, as well as embracing the Gifts of the Spirit like Speaking in Tongues, prophecy, divine healings, and visions.

There are over 700 different denominations in the Pentecostal family and several mainline denominations with significant Pentecostal influences. Pentecostal Bible Colleges seek to prepare students to have deep understandings of these key Pentecostal characteristics and be equipped to faithfully deliver them to their congregations. Pentecostal Bible Colleges usually stress knowing God through the power of the Holy Spirit and through the experience of spiritual gifts and how they are poured out on the church universal and upon individuals.
