Five Pillars of Advancement

On this short video, Rev. Dennis Shearer shares his vision for Logos University as he becomes President on July 1, 2020. Rev. Shearer outlines Five Pillars of Advancement for Logos:

1. Alumni Association – Strengthen the LU network
2. Church Partnership Plans – Train local church leaders
3. Global Plan – An international university committed to the great commission
4. Spiritual Growth – Contend in all we do for a mighty move of God
5. Financial Stewardship – Continue responsibility to steward Logos resources

Fresh vision is ahead, built upon the foundation of more than 40 years of effectively educating and spiritually equipping those committed to Kingdom advancement.

History

A Tradition Over 40 Years In The Making

Logos University was birthed out of a visionary mandate to serve the body of Christ through an educational partnership with the local church. With more than 40 years of service, this mandate continues to be our clarion call. Through the merger of several small Bible schools and institutes dating back as far as 1977, we are today a global institution with students representing dozens of countries. In 1994, Logos moved from a simple distance education school offering certificate programs into a new phase, upgrading the standards, policies, and degrees. During this new phase, Logos took on a decided international scope partnering with ministry leaders all over the world. Throughout its history, Logos has maintained a passion for equipping the Body of Christ, making an impact in over 34 countries. In April of 2014, Logos University restructured to a University model, thereby offering our students a richer variety of programs and better-qualified faculty.

Many other Christian leaders across America have made substantial contributions to the life and growth of Logos University. For their selfless and visionary investment, we are eternally grateful. The current administration and faculty are ever conscious of the deep responsibility that has been passed on to us. To all who have gone before and to those who will follow, we express our gratitude.

Doctrinal Beliefs

The Holy Scriptures

We believe that the Bible is God-inspired. We believe in Verbal Plenary Inspiration of the Scriptures. (2 Tim. 3:16, 17).

 

The Eternal Godhead

We believe that God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Cor. 13:14).

 

The Creation of Man

We believe God created humankind, male and female, in his image and likeness. (Genesis 1:27; 2:18-22).

 

The Fall Of Man

We believe that man is created in the image of God but, by voluntary disobedience, fell from perfection—thereby imbuing humanity with sinfulness (Rom. 5:12).

 

The Plan of Redemption – The Cross

We believe that, while we were sinners, Christ died for us—pardoning all who believe in Him (John 3:16; Rom. 5:8). We recognize that the Lord Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God and was born of a virgin (John 1:14; Matthew 1:18-25).

 

Salvation Through Grace

We believe that we receive salvation when we come to God through faith in the atoning work of Jesus on the cross. Salvation is God’s gift to us (Eph. 2:8).

 

Repentance and Acceptance of Jesus Atonement

We believe that, upon sincere repentance and a wholehearted acceptance of Christ, we are justified before God (Rom. 10:8-10; 1 John 1:9).

 

The New Birth

We believe that a genuine change takes place in people who accept Christ as Savior; believers allow Christ’s life to be lived through them. This experience of being born-again is essential to knowing God.  (2 Cor. 5:17; Gal. 2:20).

 

Living For God

We believe that it is the will of God for believers to walk in progressive sanctification, growing continuously in the faith.(Heb. 6:1).

 

Water Baptism & The Lord’s Supper

We believe that baptism by immersion in water is an outward sign of an inward work (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 6:4). We believe in commemorating the Lord’s Supper by the symbolic use of bread and fruit of the vine (1 Cor. 11:24, 25).

 

Baptism With the Holy Spirit

We believe that baptism with the Holy Spirit empowers believers, and that the Holy Spirit’s incoming follows the same pattern that is described in the New Testament (Acts 2:4).

 

The Spirit-Filled Life

We believe that it is the will of God that we daily walk in the power of the Holy Spirit. (Ephesians 4:30-32; Romans 8:14).

 

The Gifts and Fruit of the Spirit

We believe that the Holy Spirit has gifts to bestow upon Christians (1 Cor. 12:1-11) and that we should show spiritual fruit as evidence of a Spirit-filled life (Gal. 5:22-25).

 

Divine Healing

We believe that Divine healing is the power of Christ to heal the sick in answer to prayer offered in faith (Jas. 5:14-16).

 

The Second Coming of Christ

We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent (1 Thess. 4:16, 17; Titus 2:11- 13).

 

The Final Judgment

We believe every person will one day stand before the judgment seat of Christ to receive eternal life or death (Rev. 20:11-15; Heb. 9:27; 2 Cor. 5:10).

 

The Final Judgment

We believe every person will one day stand before the judgment seat of Christ to receive eternal life or death (Rev. 20:11-15; Heb. 9:27; 2 Cor. 5:10).

 

Hell

We believe that hell is the place of eternal torment for all who reject Christ as Savior (Rev. 20:11-15).

 

Evangelism – The Great Commission

We believe that the church’s primary responsibilities are taking the gospel to the entire world and making disciples (Mark 16:15; Matt. 28:19-20).

 

Believers Relationship to the Local Church

We believe that followers of Christ have a sacred duty to identify with the visible church of Jesus Christ and should meet regularly with fellow believers (Heb. 10:24, 25).

 

Civil Government – Biblical Response

We believe that laws and ordinances come from God’s ultimate authority and should be upheld, except when they are in opposition to the revealed will of God (Rom. 13:1-5).

 

Gender

We believe God created humans as a biologically-sexed (male and female) pair, in biological sex at birth as a core distinction between males and females, and an individual’s sex at birth as the determining factor for gender identity (Gen. 1:26-27; Matt. 19:4; Mark. 10:6).

 

Marriage

We believe marriage is the permanent, exclusive, legally-binding, covenantal relationship between one man and one woman, established by God for the welfare and happiness of humankind, to mirror his love for us in Christ, to refine our character, to allow for joyful participation with God in the creative process through procreation, to secure the stability necessary for the nurture of children produced by the marital union, and to reflect the unity of the triune God (Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:3-8).

 

The Value of Life

We believe in the sanctity of life and the God-given right of each person to live out his or her full life from conception to natural death (Psalm 139:13-14). We believe all forms of abuse, slander, dehumanization, or oppression toward fellow human beings is an affront against God’s sacred image and to God’s purposes (Ja. 3:9-10) and enjoins us to respond with love, truth, and grace (Matt. 18:15-20; Gal. 6:1).
