Christian Theology

Theology is a systematically developed set of religious beliefs and theory. The source of information must be the Word of God as written in the Holy Bible and as communicated to us by Him. These courses teach only a conservative Christian Biblical doctrine. It has been said that if you want to recognize a counterfeit you must know the real thing extremely well; thus when you are confronted with a counterfeit it will look and feel wrong. Patriot does not teach multiple theologies, just the one.

Christian Apologetics

Are you ready with an answer for those who ask you about your faith? Apologetics is defined as, “..reasoned arguments or writings in justification of something, typically a theory or religious doctrine..”  Peter admonishes Christians to be ready with an answer, “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:” (1 Peter 3:15).

The purpose of apologetics is to convict the heart of those whom God has called and to strengthen the faith of the inquiring child of God. The goal is not to “win a debate”. (God has already won.) The Christian apologist should desire to be fully equipped with God’s Word. He or she should be versed in the questions and arguments that the inquirer will ask (or attack with).

This certificate course packages three vital topics; American — Christian Nation or Not?, Hearing From God, and Biblical Answers to Today’s Questions. The authors of these books are some of Christianity’s most notable apologists. The student will be challenged and informed by Erwin W. Lutzer, D. James Kennedy, R.A. Torrey, William W. Orr, and Raymond Barber.

This specialized certificate course finishes with the student getting a chance to demonstrate their readiness by giving a 20 page written answer(s) to “every man that asketh”.

Christian Addictions Counseling Certificate

Christians and their Counselors must consider the place of Scripture in their thinking. Does it provide oversight for everything? When talking about addictions, Scripture is too often put next to AA rather than over it. The clinical “disease model” of addictions and depression supersedes Scriptural oversight.

Commonly diagnosed psychiatric diseases labeled bi-polar, depression, chemical imbalance, A.D.D., are very often present in those who have been physically, mentally, and spiritually damaged by their addictions. Using powerful drugs as treatment on those who have addictions can worsen the problem. Scripture has much to say about these life problems as well.

Christian counselors must come to understand that the thing which drives addictions is found in every human heart — not just the addicted heart. That “thing” is sin. The addict must be taught to take responsibility and not shift blame. Scripture tells us that there is no room in heaven for the drunkards and idolators. Scripture does not tell us that there is no room in heaven for those with diseases such as cancer or heart disease.

This course will reveal to the counselor the richness and relevance of Scripture in dealing with these all-too-common life-defeating behaviors. It promises to revolutionize the Christian counselors methods and even give the counselor God’s strength for the journey.
