Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is All Christian Services United Global Network Bible Institute?
We are a distance training center for Christians who desire a biblical education but do not have the time or resources to attend a college program (we are not a college and do not claim to be).

2. What is the Goal of All Christian Services United Global Network Bible Institute?
We are dedicated to the purpose of training and educating persons for Christian service. Jesus Christ is the center of all our objectives. Our Mission Statement says it all:

We exist to educate, equip, and validate those pursuing a deeper knowledge of God and their relationship to Him. We accomplish these goals by providing relevant biblical studies to those engaged in a journey toward Christian maturity. 

3. What kind of studies does All Christian Services United Global Network Bible Institute offer?
We offer correspondence studies at the certificate level. Click here for a sample study. Most of our courses involve you, the provided study guide, and a Bible with some other basic resources -- such as a Bible Dictionary and Bible Handbook. You can also take advantage of our online study resources. We include the Theophilus Bible software program with each certificate course that will give you everything that you need.

4. How difficult are the courses and how much time is involved?

None of our courses include tests or research papers. The basic procedure involves opening your Bible and finding the answers to the written study questions. The questions are designed to force you to understand the intent of the biblical author. Some study guides have True/False or Multiple Choice quizzes at the end of the lesson, but most simply ask you to search the text to find the answer. The Bible is our textbook. The studies are time-intensive and cannot be completed quickly. The idea is not to just "get it over with" but to allow the text to speak to you and equip you for ministry.

5. What is included in the course materials?

When you enroll you will be mailed CDs that contain all of the study guides necessary to complete your program along with the complete Bible Study Textbook commentary series (Over 20,000 pages of Commentary covering the entire Bible!). You need to complete 30 credits, but can take more for your own benefit if you desire. The courses are all written in Adobe Acrobat format so we have included the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program in case you don't have it. We have also included the Theophilus Bible software program that will have all the tools you need for research. In other words, we supply everything you could possibly need (you will need to supply your own computer!).

6. How does the process work?

We will e-mail you acknowledgement of your enrollment usually within 24 hours from the time you order and you will receive your CDs in the mail within 5 business days (if in Japan and a little longer for other countries.). Once you receive your materials you can start working on the class of your choice. We advise you to only work on one course at a time and to send it in as soon as it is completed. It is best if you write your answers in a word processing document and send it to us as an e-mail attachment for faster processing. That way you can keep your originals and save the cost of postage. Once you have earned 30 credits we will send you a quality certificate suitable for framing acknowledging the completion of your work. We will keep track of all your progress in our office and have a transcript of all your work. All of our courses are graded on a pass/fail basis.

7. Is All Christian Services United Global Network Bible Institute an accredited college?
No on both counts. We are not a college, we are a Bible Institute and do not claim to offer college courses. We are also not accredited as we do not offer any type of degree programs, just certificates of completion.

11. How long does it take to complete a course?
