Mississippi Baptist Bible Institute & Seminary

Mississippi Baptist Bible Institute & Seminary MBBIS is a Bible and church training institution, established for the purpose of training ministers and Christian workers. Dr. Joseph Harris is the Director.

Established June 2016 as a ministry of Central Missionary Baptist Church Ellisville, MS. We are a traditional conservative, Baptist institute, with instructors who are qualified doctrinally, spiritually, practically, and academically. We use the King James Bible in all instruction, emphasizing the practical application of scripture in daily living. We are pre-tribulation rapture in eschatology and

emphasize the local church in our ecclesiology. Because of growth in its first year, in 2017, MBBI moved to facilities provided by Houston Road Baptist Church at 217 Houston Road Laurel, MS 39443. Concerning certain doctrinal positions, practices and movements prevalent today in Christianity and among Baptists, MBBI holds to certain positions.

1. MBBI is distinctly Baptist and conservative in doctrine, practice and philosophy. We adhere to the old time standard that Biblical preaching is the center of a worship service and hold to and practice a traditional form of worship with traditional music, rejecting most modern contemporary worship.
2. MBBI does not hold to nor promote reformed doctrine, commonly referred to as Calvinism.
3. MBBI is not Pentecostal or Charismatic in doctrine or practice.
4. MBBI is not sympathetic with the prosperity gospel, Emergent Church movement and seeker sensitive groups, or any other groups connected with these movements. As an educational institution, in addition to current certificates and diplomas offered, MBBI seeks to become a teaching and resource center focusing on preserving and promoting true Baptist history and the history of the preservation of God's Word as found in the providentially preserved original language texts and the Authorized Version.

Well, it happened. We ran out of space for the Book of Acts Class and that’s with two students who were not able to attend, but will be here next week for a total of 14 in the class. We will meet next week in the Sim Smith Lecture Hall, one door down the hall and will be able to accommodate everyone with space for more. It’s not too late to enroll.

Tonight, these 12 chairs will be full for our first session of the Book of Acts. However, if more enroll, we will just move to our larger lecture room the way we did this last semester for one of our classes. Growth is never a problem. See everyone tonight. We are more than excited about this course!
