Doctorinal Basis
Unity Bible College is a fundamental Bible-believing institution. As such, we believe in the fundamental concepts of the Christian faith. These concepts are:
1. The Supremacy of God : God is the supreme maker and ruler of the universe and there is none to compare with Him.
2. The Verbal Inspiration of the Bible : The Bible was written by men divinely inspired by God, and is the only authority for salvation of mankind.
3. The Unity of the Godhead : The Father Son and Holy Spirit are One, working distinct but harmonious offices in the the great work redemption.
4. The Virgin Birth of Christ : The Lord Jesus Christ was born of a virgin as taught in Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:2,3.
5. Conversion and Regeneration : Regeneration or the New Birth is the divine side of “that change of heart” which viewed from the side we call conversion; it is God turning the soul to Him.
6. Justification : Justification is the judicial act of God by which on account of Christ, the sinner is united by faith. God declares that sinner to be free of his sin as though he had never committed any sin in the past, present or future.
7. Santification : Santification is the continous operation of the Holy Spirit by which the holy disposition imputed in regeneration is maintained and strengthen through the continual use of the appointed means, such as: the word of God, self denial, prayer, watchfulness, practice of all godly exercise and duties associating with other Christians,
8. Preseverence : The scripture declares that in viture of all the original purpose and continous operation of God, all who are united to Christ by faith will infallibly continue in a state of grace and finally attain everlsting life.
9. The Church : The Church is the Body of Christ, the living organism to which He gives spiritual life and through which life manifest the fullness of His power and grace in the past, present and future.
10. The Ordinance of the Church : Ordinances’ are those outward rights which Christ was appointed to administer in His church as visible signs of the saving truth of the Gospel. These signs which are vividly express and confirm by the believer are: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
11. Physical Death : Physical death is the seperation of the soul from the body. We distinguish it from death or the seperation of the soul from God, and the second death, and the banishment from God and final misery of the reunited soul and the body of the wicked.
12. The Second Coming of Christ : We believe that our Lord Jesus Christ will one day triumphantly return to this earth to reward the righteous, punish the wicked and complete the salvation of His people.
13. The Final States of the Righteous and the Wicked : For the righteous ther is eternal life, glory, rest, knowledge, holiness, servie and communion with God. For the wicked there is eternal fire, the pit, outer darkness, torment, eternal punishment, wrath of God and the second death.

UNITY BIBLE COLLEGE ATTENDANCE POLICIES
Attendance:
Class attendance is regarded as an obligation as well as a privilege. All students are expected to attend all classes regularly.
Attendance at graduation exercises is mandatory and must be attended by all students. Students who fail to attend these exercises, without being excused, will not be accepted back in school the following semester.
Faculties are required to check roll at each class meeting and chapel services. The student must notify the appropriate instructor via Unity Bible College email, with the excuse for missing either in the classroom or for chapel services. The faculty will reply back to the student to confirm an excused absence and will inform the student of any makeup assignment if necessary. In the case of chapel services, an alternate experience is mandatory.
Absences without student email messages will be considered unexcused and the Dean will be notified. The Dean will contact the student and work towards a resolution of the matter.
