About Us

Welcome to IBS

The Institute of Biblical Studies is an initiative of Blessing Global Assembly of God Church. We are a community of faith where students study, pray, learn, and encourage one another to become committed disciples and effective servants of God.

Who we are

At the Institute of Biblical Studies, we believe every follower of Jesus is called to know God deeply, grow in His Word, discover their calling, and serve His Kingdom faithfully.

As an initiative of Blessing Global Assembly of God Church, we equip students through biblical learning and practical training in Ministry, Counselling, and Worship.

More than an institute, we are a community of faith where students study, pray, learn, grow, and encourage one another to become committed disciples and effective servants of God.

Why we exist

IBS equips, trains and releases faithful, able men and women into the nation of India and other nations, to impact villages, towns, cities and nations for Jesus Christ.

Our purpose is to provide a God-focused and Bible-centered environment with a strong emphasis on spiritual life, prayer, evangelism and other basic aspects of discipleship. We help establish a spiritual foundation and then equip students to apply the principles of God’s Word in their lives and ministry.

Our Institute is a place where students are exposed to the gifts and workings of the Holy Spirit and obtain knowledge in sound biblical doctrines and theology. It is a unique practical learning environment in a multi-cultural/ethnic setting.

How we equip

We offer a good balance of both Biblical and Practical subjects. Lectures are given by college faculty and Visiting speakers. Personal study, reading, workshops, regular tests and exams complement the material presented in the lectures.

We also believe in supernatural impartation through association with anointed ministers. IBS emphasizes the love of God in demonstration, the anointing and presence of the Holy Spirit and the Supernatural work of God.

Practical Ministry:

All Students are required to be involved in field work and practical ministry during all semesters.

Library Resources:

All students will have access to IBS's Resource Centre which contains reference books and study guides, Christian literatures and other digital resources.

Our Vision

To raise Spirit-filled leaders who transform the world with God’s Word.

Our Mission

Equipping Spirit-filled leaders through biblical teaching and practical training to impact the world for Christ.

Our core values

At IBS, we are anchored in the authority of God’s Word and committed to nurturing Christ-centered living in every student. We believe in developing servant-hearted leaders who serve with humility and integrity, empowered by prayer and spiritual disciplines.

Our aspiration is to develop a growing generation of word based biblically equipped, spirit filled and Christ-centred leaders who will strengthen churches, serve communities and carry the message of Jesus Christ across Globe.
