About Jamaica Bible Seminary
The Jamiacan Bible Seminary is a Bible college established to train leaders for the New Testament Church. The curriculum offered at JBS is based on the belief that the Bible is the full, final, and inerrant Word of God. The Divine message of the Bible can only be understood by the application of sound principles of study and interpretation.
Scripture is the source at knowledge concerning eternal and spiritual matters. It tells of the origin of the world and of the purpose and function of all the natural order. Because this is true, the Bible is the foundation of all sound education. By its very nature and content, the Word of God encourages in a student the desire for breadth, maturity, and integrity in all academic pursuits.
God expects His children to learn His Word and about His world. Beyond intellectual growth, however, quality education must elicit spiritual development, behavioral change, and the practical use of acquired skills. The JBS curriculum offers a range of courses that meet the needs of students who aspire to be ministers or church leaders and equips them to live dynamic Christian lives.
