International College of Bible Theology
To Know Him and To Make Him Known

Welcome!!

Our degree programs are designed to equip students to follow the Lord in the work of the ministry. For this reason, we have chosen to be accredited through the Accrediting Commission International, the world's largest non-governmental accrediting association. ACI accredits over 252 schools in 39 of the United States and in nine other countries on five continents. The ICBT accepts transfer credits from other colleges and universities, as well as many Bible schools and institutes, after appropriate evaluation.

ICBT offers certificates and college degrees at the undergraduate and graduate levels in Biblical studies onsite, by correspondence, and through seminars.

Effective with the Winter 2006 Sessions, the AUDIT program is being re-introduced. See the Registration Forms for the fee schedule.

Gratefully using the facilities at The Rock Church of Petersburg is the accredited Bible College that was started in September of 1999.  The International College of Bible Theology offers classes on alternate Mondays at the Bethel Restoration Center, Williamsburg and the Dominion Worship Center, Crewe, and every Tuesday evening for the associate degree level and every Thursday evening for the bachelor level courses at the Petersburg Campus. On Friday evenings our Associate Level courses are administered at the Rawlings Campus located in the Hickory Run Baptist Church. Our first day classes began on 2 December 2003. See the Registration section for announcements.

If your location is more than 30 minutes from Petersburg, Crewe, or Williamsburg, we can open up a local campus at your site or church. The ICBT is strictly interdenominational.

At these sites of the ICBT, we believe God has called us to be co-laborers with Him. It is our vision to provide teaching and training to the Body of Christ to enable them to be all that they can be for God.

God has charged us with propagating the Gospel through education to whomsoever will. We do this through presenting the foundations of Christianity, bringing opportunity through teachings and information for practical application. In effect, we train Christians in skilled servant work, working within Christ's body, the church, until we're all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to God's Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ (Ephesians 4:12-13, The Message).

Students may register at the Petersburg, Williamsburg, Crewe, or Rawlings campuses as shown on the registration form.

For information and registration, the office is open by appointment Tuesday – Thursday, 10 AM - 2 PM. You may also call or e-mail us, and we will be happy to send you the information you need.

Students are encouraged to participate in seminars that are given once every three months. These are full credit classes that are designed for practical training.

Enrollment, tuition, textbook, study guide, and any other fees are due with completed application at registration.

See the Application, Letter of Accreditation, Course Profile for Associate and Bachelor Degree, Graduate Degree Requirements, Course Listings, Course Requirements, Grading System, Essay Helps, and more here.

Come and expand your knowledge of God's Word!

If you have any questions concerning the Bible College, please call The International College of Bible Theology at 804.733.3973, ext. 111. Or you may e-mail us at ICBT@SOTL.ORG.  Thank you for your interest.

[Doctrinal Statement]

The I.C.B.T. believes...

  • The Bible to be the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
  • There is one God eternally existent.
  • In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule over the nations.
  • The only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
  • Regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
  • The redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer.
  • The baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
  • In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
  • In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation.
