School of Christ International
WHAT IS THE SCHOOL OF CHRIST INTERNATIONAL? SOC started in Russia in 1992 with its Continental Bible School. Since then it has worked in and sent students into about 150 countries and is continuing to spread as a means of forging a Vessel of Recovery & Revival. It is now found in every continent stirring the Church to press forward with the great commission. It has spread strongly in the Chinese underground church where it was used to train up leaders in the 'Back to Jerusalem' movement. Across the Middle East Schools are being run in Iraq, Iran and Egypt. No culture, threat or danger is a barrier, Schools are run in Cuba, Indonesia, Zambia, Albania and Ireland. At any given time 40 separate Schools are running in different places in India. Multitudes in prisons across Russia, Siberia, Peru and the States have been trained and known the call of God to preach in those prisons. We train those who already have been actively in ministry for many years as well as those who are responding to the initial call of God to service.
Mt.24v14, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
EUROPEAN. Over recent years Limerick of Ireland, in the south-west Ireland, has acted as our European base in the work of the School into this Prodigal Continent. Limerick is just a 30 minute drive from Shannon International Airport. Students have come from across Europe as well as Africa, America and other regions of the world. Of all
the continents the work of the School is at its earliest stage in Europe. Regular Schools are being run and will increase according to the amount of students seeking training. The School can be run in various European languages such as French, Russian, Spanish, German and God willing will be translated into most if not all European languages. We are presently looking towards running schools in Germany and Spain.
PENTECOSTAL BIBLE SCHOOL. Christ closed His disciples in with Himself as their training, this is what we seek to do, all the teaching is to this end that each student may learn Christ and so the name 'School of Christ' was given in order to reflect this. The life of this School flows out of the fervent times of prayer and the powerful preaching of the Word. We have no special gimmick, doctrine, manifestation, strategy or revelation. We believe in a genuine born again, life changing experience of Jesus Christ followed by a Baptism and infilling of the Holy Ghost. We do not need the Saul's armour that is being forced on today's church. We must return to the upper room and from there reach a lost and dieing world. Many Bible Schools have departed from Truth, holiness, simplicity and power. By the grace of God we intend to stand fast as a voice to this generation.
SUBJECTS. The School of Christ is comprised of 158 lessons divided up into 19 series. These series cover many aspects that are not covered in most Bible Schools and Colleges. The School of Christ is not meant to replace long-term Bible schools or seminaries. The School is God's answer to those men and women who are called of God, but who do not have the time or means to attend the seminary. It is designed to equip men and women to plant new churches, and to carry the Gospel intelligently to those regions beyond. We believe that the church comes out of life, not doctrine or orthodoxy or by human effort and resource. If the student can become full of the life of God, then wherever he or she goes in the will of God, a church will be born.
Subjects:- The Conflict, The School of Christ, The Person of Jesus, The Almighty Blood, Repentance, The Cross, Faith, Prayer, Stewardship, Warfare, Discipleship, Sanctification, The Church, Rebuilding the Gate, Unity of the Church, The Holy Spirit, Revival, Paths to Power, Pneumatology.
