The Abundant Word Bible College has held its 17th graduation over the weekend at the Light House Full Gospel Church, Benson Street, Monrovia.
Speaking at the graduation ceremony, the General Overseer of the Life Center, Rev. Foday E. Karpeh, challenged the graduates to pursue sound doctrine to enhance their ministries.
Rev. Karpeh stated that a sound doctrine will make them relevant to their generation, noting that times have changed and that the Gospel has been compromised in many places.
According to him, ministries of the Gospel have been attacked with worldliness, which should not be encouraged. He noted that the church should stand strong to erect the necessary checkpoints to prevent un-holiness in the body of Christ.
Rev. Karpeh maintained that the graduates should understand the time, condition and situation confronting Liberia, and they should not compromised the standard of the Gospel for anything.
He asserted that ministries should plan their activities and set attainable goals, lead by example, invest in members and infrastructures, and serve as generation thinkers.
Meanwhile, the President of the Abundant Word Bible College, Apostle Dr. Julius Winker, said the college has been in existence for 17 years in Liberia, training church members and pastors in Theology and Divinity.
Apostle Winker stated that the Abundant Word Bible College provides academic achievements at all levels, ranging from certificate, diploma, associate of arts to Bachelor of Theology and Master of Divinity. He said that the college is helping to empower and build the capacity of the churches in the Word of God.
The Abundant Word Bible College is a non-denominational, not-for-profit para-church training arm of Abundant Ministries Fellowship of Churches and ministries aiding the fivefold call.
It is an accredited Biblical College with the State of Ohio, United States of America, and founded by Apostle Dr. Michael Joseph Pangio and Rev. Joan Pangio.
