About Us - History

Temple Bible College and Seminary was founded   by four young preachers:  
Carl P. Adkins,  
Ardie Brown Jr. *, 
Calvin A. Harper *,  ​
John Daniel White *.
(* deceased).
Long before these young men had answered the call of God, three of them knew each other as students in elementary school.
​
Temple Bible College was organized in the summer of 1970 and registered students in September of that same year. Because of transferred students a small graduating class received their degrees in 1971. God has blessed us to graduate someone each year thereafter.

Statement Of Purpose

Temple Bible College and Seminary seeks to offer an impeccable institution of higher learning to those disciples aspiring to participate in advanced degree programs and obtain certificates of study.
We will train Christian men and women to participate as leaders and examples of God’s Church on earth. We believe that the Apostle Paul’s admonition to Timothy, “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”
II Timothy 2:15, is required by God of every leader.

Doctrinal Statement
  1. We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  2. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible and only authoritative Word of God.
  3. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in his Virgin Birth, in His Sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, and in His personal and literal second coming in power and glory.
  4. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation.
  5. We believe that salvation is by Grace, through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
  6. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life and by whom the Church is empowered to carry out Christ’s great commission.
  7. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost, and the saved to the resurrection of life, and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
