Spiritual Messiah Ministries School of Divinity

Spiritual Messiah Ministries offers courses you may take to recieve your ‘legal ordination’ and Doctor of Divinity degree. We use the terms “seminary”, “divinity school”, and “theology school”; as all terms fit. We are not strictly a school for ministers or theologians, etc. Our ministry believes all have the right to obtain the same knowledge and wisdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. Now this does not mean you must recieve an ordination upon graduation. We understand not everyone has recieved the call to ministerialhood. All recieve a Divinity degree, if you also wish to be ordained you must state so upon enrollment and become a member of this ministry if you aren’t already a member.

As stated in 2 Peter 1:2-11 KJV
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, According as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

So you see, it was understood even then not everyone is called. Before jumping into ministerialhood, be sure you have a calling from God to do so.

That being said, we recommend all students to first enroll only for the degree. As the course proceeds, then determine if you wish to recieve an ordination. Those who wish to recieve an ordination and take on the life of ministerialhood will be expected to do private studies along side the course and raise many questions and to join the membership of this ministry if you aren’t a member already.
As stated in 1 Corinthians 9:14 KJV
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

Therefore those who seek ordination will be expected to have a higher understanding of the Gospel. This can only be achieved through studying, guidance, prayer, and more studying. After the course is complete, and you recieve your degree and ordination, you are not to think you have a complete understanding. A minister’s studies are never over. Each and everyday something else is revealed to us.

For those who wish to enroll strictly for a degree:
Upon graduation we will wish you luck in your career should you decide not to stay part of Spiritual Messiah Ministries. However, we recommend you stay with us and help educate others in the ways of Jesus Christ.

For those of you who wish to recieve ordination*:
If you live in Putnam County, Florida; you will help us grow our local presence. If you live outside of Putnam County, Florida; you will help us grow our presence in your local area of your state or country. If we currently do not have a presence in your area, we will help to establish a presence and help plant new Churches. Therefore, bringing evermore individual Christians to their roots and others to God. Our ordination gives you the legal authority to perform ceremonies such as weddings, and is recognized in all 50 states and a few nations internationally. We are a strict Bible believing, Christian ministry; therefore, we do NOT condone homosexual marriages and will NOT perform such a ceremony. You are NOT permitted to perform homosexual marriages. If we should find out you are performing homosexual marriages, your ordination WILL be revoked.

*We offer ordinations only to members of Spiritual Messiah Ministries. Anyone who is seeking ordination only to be a wedding officiant or start a “wedding ministry” must seek ordination elsewhere.

All Christian theologians and ministers that graduate from Spiritual Messiah Ministries School of Divinity will be expected to live a Christian life-style and to be an example to others as Christ was and is for us.

Spiritual Messiah Ministries School of Divinity is a non-accredited school by our choice. We feel accreditation forces all schools across denominational lines to teach the same thing and to teach what the accrediting agency prefers you to teach. Accreditation is also usually government backed. Therefore, accredited schools are teaching governments lies, not Gods Truth. We are not here to preach lies, but Truth. We wish not to be part of the problem, but the solution. We feel we can not do that as an accredited school.

Our degrees and ordinations are 100% legal and are recognized in all 50 states of the United States of America as well as internationally.
We will accept students with no degree or previous education as well as students with prior education, accredited and non-accredited alike, who seek higher education. All students with prior education MUST let us know to what level your education is, as this will affect your courses and time required to accomplish a Doctorate degree from us.
