Our Mission

Graduation at the Assemblies of God 2006 Biblical Training to the Nations in the power of the Holy Spirit

The mission and purpose of the Assemblies of God School of Theology {AGST} are summoned up in the above mission statement. We are thus committed to three things.

1. The bible is our text book. We are a Bible school. At the heart of
every class and every subject is the Bible, The eternal Word of God.

2. The Nations are our focus. We are a missionary school. Our goal is to
train workers whose passion is to reach the nations of the world with
the gospel before Jesus second coming. (Matthew 24:14)

3. The Holy Spirit is our source. We are the Pentecostal school. We
exist to train truly Pentecostal Pastors, evangelist, missionaries and
teachers, men and women who can move in the power and anointing
of the Holy Spirit. We expect that all of our teachers and students
will be baptized in the Holy Spirit. We anticipate the moving of the
Spirit in our classes and in our chapel services.

Our Purpose

Our purpose is to train workers for world harvest. We exist to train
pastors missionaries and teachers to fulfill the Great Commission of Christ (Mt 28:18-20). We seek to accomplish three things in the life of each student:

1. Filled with the Word. It is our purpose that each student be filled with
the word of God.

2. Filled with the Spirit. It is further our purpose that each is filled with the Holy Spirit.

3. Tools to accomplish the task. Finally, it is our purpose that we give each student the tools, both spiritually and practical, that he or she needs to get the job done.
