Our Mission

JILIU's mission is to build up the Body of Christ and to form the New Testament Church so that it reveals the Kingdom of God in each of the segments of our society, that the Glory of God will cover the earth. JILIU is a pioneer of the modern model of vocational ministry development in the field of higher education for ministerial preparation. Ephesians 4: 1-4

Our Philosophy

JILIU was established under the foundation of Jesus Christ and the curriculum of our University is centered in the Bible. We believe that God has revealed Himself to humanity in the writings commonly known as the Old and New Testament of the Holy Bible. We believe that these are the necessary guide to resolve doctrinal issues and to direct the structure and mission of the Church. We share the basic philosophy that distinguishes Christian colleges and universities as distinctive institutions of education in today's world; we provide the knowledge of God as an investment of life on earth and into eternity.

Our Creed

That Jesus Christ is the Lord

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ as the only Son of God. We believe in His death for every man, His resurrection, and His eventual return to earth to judge the world.
