OVERVIEW

LION  OF  JUDAH  SEMINARY


Welcome to the Lion of Judah Discipleship Journey Seminary (LJS), a Home Study Course for Clergy Ordination.

This course is intended to help you learn the Holy Bible, prepare disciples for ministry, and accomplish ordination.

This course has two parts: the academic and ministry application. 

The academic portion educates you from the Holy Bible. The ministry application testimonializes your ministry to others.  Either part can begin at any time and each part enhances the other, when you are ready.

Participation can provide you valuable feedback and all your work can contribute later toward you discipling others.

You will obtain diplomas for the degrees you complete in Theology, Ecclesiology, and Divinity.

You will obtain ordination certification for the degree you complete in ministry, such as Deacon, Apostle, or  Overseer.


ACADEMIC

You can begin this course by reading the Holy Bible using mainstream versions, such as the New King James.

After reading each book in the Holy Bible, such as Genesis, then complete a one page essay telling us what you understand the book to be about and a last paragraph about how the book has been or can be helpful. Avoid copying anyone else’s interpretations, thoughts, or commentary. We want what you understand and interpret so we can help your personal growth.

You will be provided topical articles and exams covering subject deeper, such as Baptism, the sacred name of God, theology, and ecclesiology, for example.

You will be evaluated for your spiritual gifts and inclinations to be fostered and supported by CCGJ-GCC, for developing your customized personal ministry—-as in music, art, organization, evangelism, etc.—–and to help maintain your cooperative oneness with the Body of Christ, His CCGJ-GCC, to help the world.


MINISTRY 

Any time you are inspired by God directly or indirectly, as by the Holy Bible, a disciple or His Church, you can begin ministry for Him.

After you have begun, and have called for or participated to assist prayer group gatherings, group Bible studies, fellowships, or observances such as the Passover, you must record the name and contact for each person attending and what the gathering was for (e.g. prayer, study?), and optionally you can record details of events or occuences, problems or solutions experienced. This journal is called a Deacon’s Testimonial Record of Action (DTRA). This later permits CCGJ-GCC to contact or bless attendees and continue the book of Acts history by later authors about your ministry. At least one DTRA a week.

After you team with a disciple(s), together spread the gospel/your testimony, record names, contact information of all involved and a brief journal of your interactions, this is your Apostle’s Testimonial Record of Action (ATRA), required at least once every two weeks.

After you team with a disciple(s), together have organized Christian community/assembly activities (as a group/council of spiritual elders), record council names, their contact information and a brief journal of planned and completed assembly activities, this is your Eldership Testimonial Record of Action (ETRA), required at least once every four months.

Your academic and ministry writings are also evidence for your credentials. Please keep a copy of all your written work.


PRICE

Free.

There is no payments required for our teachers. Depending on donations, your supplies will be purchased for you if you are unable to afford them or access them online.

The cost for paper, envelopes, postage, photocopies, staff, training, overall management and operations is covered by donations from the generous and obedient. The Holy Bible provides example of  gifts or 10% from your weekly income should go toward support of our saints in various churches who work for you to provide you this ministry service. It is called a tithe. See Hebrews 7:5-6, 1 Timothy 5:18, Proverbs 14:4.

Tithes for operations in excess of a tenth from you go toward support of those in poverty conditions after receiving evidence of their indigence, such as orphans, widows, infirmed, or prisoners.

Comparison value of this seminary course is about 1200.00 per year, 3600.00 by third year, and this does not include advanced degrees or customized ministry development to expertise, which could then exceed seven years and 10,000.00 per person.

This is a price value no one is required to pay but is provided for your value judgement and gratitude to God if you obtain this and more, for less money.

Since one of our purposes is in part to minister by Word or Testimony and service to others, and for that also organize, we expect disciples who live above poverty but cannot afford to tithe to accept our course and services in exchange for ministry outreach to others.

We encourage disciples to work or contribute by serving brothers and sisters, as by gatherings to educate, organize, worship, lead spiritual revivals, create art, letters, or other ways to spread the gospel. This includes but is not limited to testimony, or service from love for God and others. Tell us bout it. We may include it to our future newsletters.
