Accreditation at King James Bible College
At King James Bible College, we firmly believe that the Word of God is the ultimate source of truth and authority in all matters, including education. As the Bible teaches in 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV), “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” Our curriculum is deeply rooted in biblical principles, and our primary commitment is to ensure that every course and program we offer is grounded in Scripture, not dictated by secular systems.
So, is our college accredited? A more fitting question might be, “Is our college accredited by man’s law?” The answer is no. We stand by the sufficiency of God’s Word and believe that our accountability is ultimately to Him, as stated in Acts 5:29 (KJV): “We ought to obey God rather than men.” While secular accreditation may have its place, we prioritize God’s standards over all earthly requirements.
That said, we understand the importance of formal accreditation in some circles, and we are actively exploring options to obtain accreditation from specialized organizations focused on theological education. These accrediting bodies assess the integrity and quality of biblical colleges, ensuring that theological institutions meet high educational standards while remaining faithful to biblical doctrine.
We are hopeful to secure this type of accreditation in the near future. However, it’s important to note that theological studies fall outside the scope of the U.S. Department of Education’s (US-DOE) oversight, meaning no accrediting body for theological education has US-DOE authority. Our goal is to seek accreditation from organizations that understand the unique nature of biblical education and are dedicated to maintaining its integrity.
At King James Bible College, our commitment remains unwavering: to provide education that upholds the teachings of Scripture, all while striving for excellence in biblical instruction. Accreditation is a step in this process, but our foundation will always be the Word of God.
