Welcome All Students!

August 16, 2009

Welcome to Dover Baptist Bible Correspondence School – OUR MOTTO “The School for Scholars” We are a Baptist Bible Correspondence School, who believes in disciplining the Christian and seeking the lost with the gospel of Jesus Christ. We have strong Baptist doctrinal beliefs and Southern Baptist by faith. (See our faith and doctrinal beliefs for more information).

 Our Main Mission is to fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ in teaching all nations God’s Words of salvation in all truth according to His Holy Bible that He has given to mankind. Our purpose and goal is to see all mankind come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and that all will grow and mature spiritually in His kingdom as the result, of good and solid Biblical teaching. Our prime objective is to assist and strengthen local churches to include the world-wide organism called the “Universal Church” which is made up of all people throughout the world who receive Christ during this age. This “ministry” does not seek to dominate or displace the local church which would be unscriptural. In keeping with Biblical principles, we believe that the local church is given the most authority in spiritual matters.

The Dover Baptist Bible Correspondence School was established in 2005, when we saw a great need for Christians to be in the Word of God, and as a result of this the Bible School began to grow with students from all over the world. The Bible School offers courses to all that are interested in studying God’s precious Word.  All courses are designed for all levels of students. All Bible courses are FREE OF CHARGE, but we do ask for Donations to provide for printing and operational costs. We also support our overseas missionaries with free courses.

Again, welcome to our Bible School and may the Lord God open your eyes spiritually to the rich blessings of His precious Word!

Currently, Dover Baptist B.C.S. is not accredited by any State Board of Colleges and Universities or any other accrediting body. We do hope in the future as we develop and grow more that we will be accredited by W.W.A.C. However, for those of like ministry and purpose who wish to recognize work completed at Dover Baptist B.C.S., we offer the following course value which we believe is academically honest. We value each course at 3 credit hours. A record can be requested and transmitted at the request of the student.
