The goal of campus life at Florida Bible College is to worship, live, learn, serve, and work together as an educational faith-community with Jesus Christ and our love for Him at the center of all we think, say, and do. Our mission as an academic community is not merely the transmission of information; it is the development of whole persons who will build the Church and benefit society worldwide “for the glory of God.” Membership in this community comes with not only privileges, but also responsibilities. The members of the Florida Bible College community take these responsibilities seriously.
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness - 2 Timothy 3:16
The biblical foundation of Christian community is expressed in Jesus' two great commandments: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind," and, "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Matt. 22:37-40). Jesus was the perfect example of this… demonstrating the pattern: love for God, acted out in love for others, in obedience to God's Word. By acknowledging our dependence on the power and grace of God, the members of the Florida Bible College community will humbly covenant to live according to this ideal.
