Our Vision Statement

“Making Disciples and Planting Kingdom Apostolic Churches in Africa to the whole world, for the fulfilment of the Great Commandment and Great Commission” Matthew 22v33-40, 28v18-20.

Our Mission Statement

“We Bring people in as member students, Build them up to maturity, Train them for ministry and Send them out on mission and magnify the Lord Jesus Christ in the Dominion Process” 2Timothy 3v17; Ephesians 4v1-16.

Our Motto Statement

“Come In Order To Become!”

All degrees at the Omega Bible Theological College are earned degrees. This is achieved by mandatory coursework that must be completed.

Bible College transcripts do not always reflect real life experience. Omega Bible Theological College recognizes life experience which may have been gained through years of work which is ministry related.

Many people have served in ministry positions and have gained a lot of knowledge and experience in their fields, but do not have any formal certificate, Bible College, or degree. Life experience credits can give some of the recognition needed for this service in the work of the Lord.

This acceptance of life credits helps a potential student to accelerate their learning college experience and enabling them to earn a fully accredited degree.

Applicants must have had more than five years in a recognized position in ministry.

No Bible Colleges or degrees can be awarded based purely upon life-experience. Life experience credit cannot be given for an entire degree but is limited to a maximum of 30 credit hours.

Life experience which could include such things as books authored, missions trips, classes taught, outreach ministries, ministries within a church, etc., must be documented along with the years they occurred and submitted for evaluation.
