All are offered equal opportunity to learn. The training is divided into three parts - the first six months at the Centre, two months of practical involvement in Christian service outside the Centre, and four months of intensive ministerial training at the Centre. Purpose
Our primary purpose in IVTS. is to Prepare ministers for ministry through the development of soul winners, church planters, character builders, full-time ministers, fruit-bearing preachers of the Full Gospel and dynamic witnesses of the abundant life Jesus came to offer. Under the Lord’s direction, by His Word and through the leading of the Holy Spirit, we have prayerfully designed a curriculum for all believers who desire to mature into full grown children of God, able to fulfill their calling within the Body of Christ, reach out effectively to the lost and needy world and capable of handling any situation the enemy may throw at them. Courses of instruction are geared toward achieving the purpose outlined above. seeks to enroll as many students as possible who are called into the Christian service of preaching and teaching God’s Word with signs following. Anyone whose primary goal and purpose in life is to minister Christ to those with whom he comes in contact has an open door into IVTS. This individual (after the Training) may support himself through a suitable “tent-making” work (any suitable secular employment), but his primary-goal and ambition in life is to preach where Christ has not been known and minister the Word to the Body of Christ. Our unified goal must be to win men, women and children to Christ. IVTS is dedicated to the principle that every Christian minister has a need to “study to show himself approved" To this end, a strong emphasis is placed on maintaining an atmosphere conducive to balanced Christian living in the Centre. An atmosphere of warm Christian community aids in the development of the total person. A ‘life above reproach’ is encouraged by positive precept and through practical demonstration by faculty and staff. Our doctrinal position is fundamental, evangelistic and Pentecostal.

IVTS. draws students from different denominations and para-church groups to prepare for the ministry. So, we avoid bigotry on the one hand and latitudaniarism on the other. Believing that “all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reprove, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” we teach all the Word from the beginning of Genesis through to the end of Revelation, adding nothing to the Word and taking nothing from it. The King James version of the Bible is used as the most authentic translation of the original Hebrew/Greek Bible. IVTS draws a clear distinction between nominal Christianity and genuine Christianity, and also between fanaticism and true worship (John 4:20—24). We teach the importance of daily living an overcoming Christian life. The entire Scriptures are the only rule for our standard of conduct, form of discipline and pattern of Christian work. Admission
