Immanuel Prospectus

Registration No.2018/288825/07

Introduction

When God entrusted us with this ministry, we were determined to follow the vision Jesus gave to His Disciples to Go Out and make Disciples of all Nations. Our mission follows suit and is it our vision to train students up for the Ministry of God and to validate them to go out and work as Christian ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is our goal to help people receive the educational recognition they need to fulfil their dreams of serving the Lord in the 5 Fold Ministry of God. Immanuel University of Theology International is a God Ordained Christ Centred Faith Based Training Entity to train ministers up for Pentecostal and Charismatic Christian Faith Based religions around the Globe via our accredited study programs, being it class room teachings or on our E-School part time study programs, ranging from NQF level 6 to NQF Level 12 to take the True Gospel of Jesus Christ into every Country, City, Township or Village in the World. It must be understand that the End Time Church will be in the air waves for the church as we know it will be politically forbidden to conduct public services. It is fair to state that Immanuel University of Theology International is one of the fastest growing Christian Pentecostal and Charismatic Faith Base Academies across the Globe. For too long did the Trinity Doctrine Training Entities across the world forced Reborn Christians to study at their training institutions. Ever since the Apartheid years and the Independence of South Africa, Pentecostal and Charismatic churches were marginalized and made out to be a sect movements, whereas in fact we are the only church organizations that are Biblically Correct. Our goal is to teach the True Gospel of Jesus Christ that He bought so dearly with His blood on Mount Calvary to all corners of the earth. One of our commissions is to train and validate the lost sheep of Israel, the previous disadvantage and previous marginalized pastors and churches after the manipulation by the previous SA governments. The lower income bracket people in South Africa Could not afford the high training costs of Public Universities. Whereas the previous marginalized groups could not execute their Human Rights, Religious Rights and constitutional rights to have freedom of choice when it comes to religious faith. The government universities did not make provision for the marginalized groups and hence people was forced to follow the governmental SAQA SETA’s as the only religious controlling authority and led to that Protestantism got camouflaged by Catholic Doctrines. Luckily is it the policies of the new government to protect the rights of all peoples, religions and religious groups. Origin and formation Immanuel University of Theology International has its linage from Immanuel Bible College that was established in 2008 to train Men and Women from churches in the 5 Fold Ministry of God. We made history when the Immanuel University of Theology was successfully accepted and registered as a Christian Faith Based Training University for Pentecostal and Charismatic Faith Based Christian leaders on the 12th of December 2017 and registered as Private (PTY) Ltd Christian Theology Training Company.


Immanuel Prospectus

Our formation is an historical event and was essential as we are the only Private Registered University to accommodate the Pentecostal and Charismatic Faith Religions. Whereas the government Training institutions only offers Trinity base Doctrine Training, we have opened a door to offer Pentecostal Faith Base Training. So what is the Difference you might ask? Trinity Doctrine is a Roman Catholic Doctrine that propagates three Gods, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. Pentecostal Doctrine believes are that there are only One Monistic God and Triune God that manifested as the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit as set out in John 1:1-14; 1John 5:7,8 and 1 John5:20. What is shocking is that the Trinitarians as they are known has even changed the bible to suit their doctrine. The realities is exposed when comparing the above mentioned bible verses between the KJV and NIV and the 1933 Afrikaans old Translation with the 1983 Afrikaans New Translation. You will be amazed as to discover how the Trinitarians make Jesus out as the second person in the Godhead and only a witness, whereas He was in actual fact the Immanuel, God with us. Jesus is the King of Kings and lord of Lords! He is God as per John 1:1 and in Revelations 1:8, and Revelation 1:11. The bible even tells us that the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, all is Jesus. Go and read John 5:43; John 10:10 and John 14:8-12 and John 14:26. Even James 2 says: Jas 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. No wonder the church is in such a mess, for people simply don’t know who their God is. They even get baptised in God the Father, God the Son and God the holy Ghost, whereas Acts 2:38 states that you must be baptised in the name of Jesus, which is the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Just read the book of John! The Trinity Doctrine is a manmade philosophy and not a biblical founded doctrine. It is not substantiated by the bible and should one rather focus on the revelations of the Godhead in the bible in context and not doctrines based on one or two verses in the bible that are merely views of people. The Godhead is a spiritual revelation and not a doctrine based statement. There are no three gods or persons in the Godhead, no there are One God that is all. John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: Luk 10:22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him. Our training programs are Biblical Founded, God Centred and Spiritual Empowered to rise up and edify the End-Time Ministry of God.

Our Goal Our goal is multi fold to train and uplift preachers from the Pentecostal and Charismatic Christian Faith Base Church Organizations. Firstly, to train ministers up to spread the True Gospel of Jesus Christ of Nazareth to all nations in terms of Matt 28:19, 20 that He bought so dearly with His Blood on Mount Calvary to all nations around the Globe. It was in fact the last message that Jesus gave to His disciples before ascending to heaven. Secondly, to train and validate Christian leaders to receive the educational recognition they need to fulfil their vision of serving in the Kingdom of God as Apostles, Preachers and Teachers that in turn again can make disciples in their own Villages, Townships, Cities, Regions, Countries, in Africa and around the Globe.


Immanuel Prospectus

Students in possession of a valid Pastoral Diploma Certificates can then enrol on our On Degree per Year training program to progress from a Bth, to an Mth, to a Dth, and DD to a PhD in theology. Thirdly, to validate Township and Rural Pastors, Bishops, Apostles, prophets and Evangelist who are ministering but do not possess formal theology Diplomas for the positions that they are ministering in. We conduct evaluation on them and then issue certificates and diplomas for knowledge gained. It must be stressed that these Men and Women of God will receive a Pastoral Handbook package to ensure that they have all the required knowledge to manage a small to medium size church venture. On completion of the Pastors handbook program they can then enrol on our Bachelor Degree of Theology and even proceed to obtain a PhD in Theology. Fourthly, we also extend credit to Church leaders that has completed formal and informal biblical training within a church organization or that has completed a degree with theology institutions within South Africa or in Africa or for any International degree. Again our Moderators will assess the levels and will we then issue degrees according to the moderators report. Fifthly, we validate Bishops that are in management positions or those who are Chairman’s of Bishop Platforms. Again our Moderators will assess the levels and will we then issue degrees according to the moderators report. Sixthly, to train Facilitators, Assessors and Moderators to work hand in hand with CTQA to validate students and training venues across the globe. Our Vision and Mission Statement

Jesus was in Acts 9:3-5 & 2 Thessalonians 2:4.

That God manifested in the flesh via His Son Jesus Christ, born from a virgin, as per the word in John 1:1.

That is that the Immanuel Prophesized by the Prophet Isaiah became flesh and died on the Cross at

Calvary. He is the creator according to John 1.

In the bodily resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and His ascension to heaven to prepare a place for us,

from where He will come back again on the clouds of heaven to come and fetch His Bride and that we

will be transformed into a glorified body to be with our God and Master forever and ever as per

John 14:2&3

That the Bible is the Authoritative Godly Inspired Word of God for His followers and His plans for His

people. It symbolizes; God with us! Pro 30:5 - “Every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto

them that put their trust in Him.” Isaiah 7:14.

In the Saving Grace of God and that sin is only cleansed by personal repentance and faith in the Atoning

Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Mar 1:15 – “ And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of

God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel” & Col 1:14 – “ In whom we have redemption

through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:”

In the Holy Baptism by Water and Spirit through repentance of sins and the acceptance of Jesus Christ as

the Lord and Savior by adhering to Acts 2:38.

That Christians must be trained as Disciples to go out and plunder hell and populate heaven by acting on

the Word of God as instructed by Him in Matt 28:19,20 that is to go out and make disciples of all

nations, and to baptize them in the Name of Jesus as per Acts 2:38; John 5:43; John 14:26.

That we have dominion over death and the devil through Jesus Christ our Lord for once and all through

His death and resurrection and that we will have an immortal spirits that will unite with the Spirit of

Jesus Christ when we die in the flesh to become one with Him in The Spirit. Rom 6:14 - “For sin shall

not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.”

That there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ as depicted in Rom 8:1 and that those that

refuse Jesus in their Lives will be held accountable and appear in front of Jesus Christ, that will reign as

God on the day of the judgment.

That God is Spirit and that we must be spiritually filled to enter the Kingdom of God. Joh 3:5 Jesus

answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he

cannot enter into the kingdom of God.


Immanuel Prospectus

In the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, and the manifestation of all the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, and that the

Gifts of the Spirit is available to all that desires to receive it. Mat 10:1 – “And when He had called

unto Him his twelve disciples, He gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out,

and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.” Act 1:8 – “ But ye shall receive

power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:”

In the second coming of Jesus Christ and the promised eternal life with Jesus Christ in heaven and on

earth in the New Jerusalem. Mar 14:62 – “ And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man

sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”

That Jesus Christ shall reign forever and ever and that only the righteous will be united with Him in His

place of Glory. 2Th 2:4 – “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or

that is worshipped; so that He as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that He is

God.”

That the Church and Men of God will be held accountable to God for the souls entrusted to them. Act

20:28 – “Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost

hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with his own

blood.”

That all men and woman are equal in God, irrespective of race, color or country and that whosever

accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior will be called a son and daughter of God. John 1:12 – “ But as

many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that

believe on His name”, Gal 3:28 – “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor

free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”

That through Christ we are blessed and filled with the Holy Spirit of God and that anything is possible for

those who believe and call on His Name. That we can still today, heal the sick and lame, take power and

dominion over Satan and his demons, and even raise the dead through His manifestation in our lives.

Mar 16:17 – “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In My name shall they cast out

devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Joh 14:13 – “And whatsoever ye shall ask in My

name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.”

GENERAL INFORMATION

Immanuel International University's Philosophy

Learning is a lifetime activity, from birth to death, a constant process of growing and becoming.

There are levels of learning as well as kinds of learning.

Learning is experiential and to learn requires practice.

Ministry experiences and occupational experiences provide learning that is as valid, perhaps even more valid, than traditional campus-confined, classroom-based instruction, and this life-learning can be accurately and responsibly measured for its academic equivalency.

Social justice dictates that, all learning, regardless of where it takes place, be treated as equitably as possible in a society which values and encourages individual knowledge and competence.

It makes little difference what age you are when you start your biblical theology studies whether you are age 20 or 50 or 75. What is important is that it does take place and under conditions appropriate to the learner.

Individuals are entitled to equal opportunity for recognition of equal accomplishment and ability.

Immanuel International University prohibits discrimination against current or prospective students on the basis of race, colour, sex, religion, national origin, age, disability, or any other legally protected characteristic. The University does not by this non-discrimination statement disclaim any right it might otherwise have to maintain its commitment to its Christian identity or the doctrines inherent in the Bible.

Recognition of Prior Studies and Ministry Experiences

Immanuel International University of Theology accepts prior studies from other Bible Schools, seminars, workshops, conferences, ministry experience, and leadership training against applied credits. You may very well already possess many of the required Biblical credits for any one of our study programs. You will never know until we individually study your Evaluation Application. We even RPL previous Disadvantage and previous marginalised groups to the levels or offices that they are operating in. i.e. Pastors, Bishops, Arch Bishop’s, Apostles, Prophets and Evangelists. The Moderators at CTQA do the assessment and then make proposals to the University re the NQF levels that students are suitably qualified for.

STANCE IN RELIGIOUS CIRCLES

Pentecostal and Evangelical in doctrine; Charismatic in expression; International in scope; Autonomous in governance and Interdenominational in fellowship; Non-sexists; non racist and Christ minded.

Immanuel International University of Theology is committed to removing the fear factor from the desire to earn a Biblical degree. The Bible is our textbook. Every course uses the Bible plus a workbook. Whether your desire is to earn a degree in Biblical Theology or Biblical Counselling, your textbook will be the Bible and a workbook that only requires the Bible to complete. Any test Immanuel International University of Theology gives will be an open book test. The exams are conducted as a closed book based on the questions and answers taken from the tests.

Coursework Evaluation An objective of Immanuel International University of Theology is that a student learns, not about the Bible, but learns the Bible and the interpretation of the Bible. The intent is that each student learns Biblical truths - line upon line, precept upon precept, principle upon principle, and statute upon statute to discover the Biblical Revelations contained within the Bible. You must know the Bible in Context to know Christianity and the God we serve. God is Spirit and we must therefore approach the Bible and Teachings on a Spiritual Level.


Immanuel Prospectus

Diploma Programs Evaluation is based on the points obtained in the short tests as well as achieved in the exams. Students are also evaluated on participation, spiritual growth, dedication and motivation.

Degree Programs As previously stated, the degree programs are structured in such a way to expose the student to levels above the normal pastoral programs. Students get measured on their Communication Skills, Leadership Skills and Management Skills. The Thesis or Dissertation per degree level is also directed in these components and will as such be beneficial for the students in the sense that they can apply the knowledge and materials in their pastoral careers.

Distance Learning / Home Studies A student working at home may have unlimited time for the completion of the course. As a student completes each course, it should be mailed to Immanuel International University of Theology for grading. Sometimes the thesis or dissertation requirement is intimidating to a student. We are also interested in "projects" to fulfil this requirement. The document submitted for approval would then be a demonstration of practice. The structure, focus and content of students' projects will take on a wide range of differing forms, appropriate to the actual area of ministry in which each is involved. The project will become a demonstration of practice or creative work, including a commentary on applied reflections. The completed report should be within 90 to 150 pages, double spaced, including references within the body of the work, wherever appropriate, and with relevant bibliographical references at the end.

Submission of Thesis Upon completion of your relevant degree program of study, a copy of your transcript must be presented on a CD or memory stick or Mailed to Immanuel International University of Theology. On Approval of transcripts by Immanuel International University of Theology, Students may then publish their “Books” should they desire to do so. The cost thereof is for their account. Immanuel International University of Theology reserves the rights to have a copy of all transcripts from students that have completed their studies via Immanuel International University of Theology. Extracts from the said material may even be used on our training programs should it be of significance to enlighten other Biblical Students on similar topics of interest.

Academic Year Our academic year runs from June to April of the next year. Students can however enroll any time of the year on our study programs and E-School study programs. We are in the electronic era and as such long distant learners can register on and study via the internet.

Graduation Our graduation is once a year on the last Saturday of May each year. It is our policy to rotate venues to accommodate people from the different areas in Gauteng. Certificates, Diplomas and Degrees will be officially conferred at the annual Graduation Ceremony provided that learners have paid their fees in full.

Code of Conduct It is the wishes and standard of the Immanuel University that all learners will always conduct themselves in a way to please God and that should learner’s wishes to enrol with us, that they should be free from habitual sins such as substance abuse, smoking, drinking, shouting, sexual harassment, gender violence, horse play and disrespectful attitudes towards fellow students and superiors. Learners must note that good conduct will enhance their Christian Growth and Progress as they represent the Body of Christ to the lost world. It must be made clear that the house of the Lord is a place of Honour and Respect, not only to God but also towards fellow Christians and Church goers. The Church is a place of worshipping God and not a trade centre or prosperity preaching organization. Jesus Himself cleaned out the church from trading in the church. Jesus introduced the 5 Fold Ministry of God in the sense that each office is as important to the Body of Christ. Some students will become: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Preachers and Teachers in the Kingdom of God and plays an integral part to purify the Kingdom of God. To have made one prophesy does not make you a prophet! The Spirit of God does the Work. Refer to 1 Corinthians’ 12.

Disciplinary Actions Disciplinary actions will be taken against offenders in the form of verbal and written warnings. Suspension or termination may follow if a learner fails to comply with the house rules and warnings tabled. Reports on misconduct will be conveyed over to the relevant church authorities of the said learner. It must be noted that we are not there to judge but to tutor the principals of God and His Love to His people.

Immanuel University Stellenbosch: Dr Dewald Gouws Message from the Group C.E.O. Our calling is to serve the Body of Christ and train disciples to go out to preach and teach the True Gospel of Jesus Christ, that He is Immanuel, God with Us, to all nations and to inspire them to follow the salvation steps as per Acts 2:38. Matthew 28:19,20 is our commission from Jesus Christ before He ascended to heaven: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. (This is of course the Name Jesus Christ) Because Jesus is Lord! With the special instruction of verse 20, to “Teach them the things that Jesus taught His Disciples” That He and the Father are One” John 10:30, and that we will do anything that He has done when we do it in His Name! John 14:14 Perhaps this is the last and greatest assignment that Jesus Christ has made to mankind when He walked the earth 2,000 years ago. We believe that theological and biblical teaching is rather based on church Doctrine


Immanuel Prospectus

than on Biblical Principals. Christian Theology training must be Godly Inspired, Christ Focused and Holy Spirit Driven. For too long did religion take the place of Jesus as Lord and Saviour in the churches! The Trinity Doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church has manipulated the churches in Africa and is it about time that we follow the word of God and not the doctrines and perceptions of man. God gave us the Bible and sadly did the antichrist change the Bible to suit their doctrines. The revelation of the Godhead is a spiritual message and will the normal person not understand it until they have had a personal encounter with God. As a Biblical Training Institution we are dedicated to fulfil the calling and provide a meaningful contribution to church organizations and to unite the Body of Christ by bringing Bible Training Courses closer to home, schools, churches and to individuals that wants to know more about Jesus and the Bible in context. My Commission from God in April 2010 I have been summoned by God to establish an International Network to train End Time Generals for God via Satellite Training venues and E-School Internet Networks to take the true Gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations of the world. This can only be done by cohesion and taking hands with fellow bodies of Christ. May God grant us the grace, opportunity and wisdom to train, maintain and expand the Immanuel University of Theology International to such an extent that we will become a Theology Training Institute of excellence to fulfil Gods calling for His Kingdom on Earth! When God commands you to go, you must go, otherwise He will send someone else to do it. To fail man is nothing, but to fail God is a serious offence. Many are called, but few answer to the calling! John 15:16 Joh 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. Yours sincerely in Christ our Lord,
