The Bible in 2Timothy 2:15 counsels, “Study to show yourself approved unto God” Scripture here places a strong emphasis on the word “study” to differentiate it from mere reading. For the Christian who desires to live a life pleasing to God, “studying” has never been an option. It is a matter of obedience. A diligent study of God’s Word remains an effective way to gain God’s approval. 

The secular world places no premium on ignorance. Neither does God.

About The Gamaliel Seminary
At TGS, we provide one of the most efficient and cost-effective ways to reach the heart of God. We offer sound biblical teaching and excellent practical programs designed to equip students for service in a diverse world. All classes are conducted by seasoned facilitators in a student-friendly classroom environment to enhance greater impartation.
 
TGS (a non-denominational theological college) is the training arm of the Lighthouse Bible Church and is a spiritual formation center that is committed to developing reflective leaders and missioners through classes, retreats, and seminars. We hope to provide leadership & theological training to those who feel called to the Ministry while not leaving behind those who ordinarily want to broaden their God-knowledge. Our first-rate curriculum and highly trained course facilitators are a great resource for local churches that do not have the resources or manpower to undertake this kind of training for their workers and disciples. 

The Rector of the School, Pastor Tayo Ajibade, an indefatigable teacher of the Word and a preacher of note, holds an MBA in Accounting & Finance and a Ph.D in Systematic Theology.
