Pastor: Dr. Martin A. Estes

My desire for every student that attends UAO is to be motivated and inspired by the Lord Jesus Christ. These include all students experiencing similar experiences that I had, after the Spirit of the Lord visiting me with a spoken word, encouraging me to move forward in attending a bible college, because society would not receive me without biblical credentials.

I have discovered that many Christians would profess to have the Holy Spirit rationalizing within themselves that education in Theology is unnecessary, and just having the Holy Ghost is enough. However, the Word of God instructs and warns us that his people must learn the Word by teachers who are ‘chosen’ vessels who are well equipped to teach his people.

Hosea 4:6

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.”

I distinctly remember the Lord leading me to Emmanuel Bible Institute (where Dr. Clara Cothron was President and Dean). I then realized how important and necessary it was to attend bible-college. I discovered that there was a plethora of information/knowledge to gain that I didn’t even tap into concerning the Word of God.

For those who are not sure whether the Lord called you to further your education in theology but have a desire to know more about the Word of God, you will be enlightened and also introduced to a new world of biblical information. Your life will never be the same again!

I invite some and adjure others to embark in the union the receiving knowledge concerning the Word of God by attending UAO, as you will be exposed to a spiritual spectrum phenomenon, obtaining powerful knowledge in the Word of God that is needed to persevere.

Attending UAO will become addictive if you allow yourself to follow your love and appetite for the gospel of Jesus Christ, and it will quench the thirst and fulfill the hunger for the Word of God. The knowledge that you would gain at this learning institution would be a great one and too much to handle, at the same time, without feeling drudgery. Consider your learning experience as an overflow of impartation.

**I demand that the classroom setting be Spirit-filled ready for students to be refreshed, renewed, and revived through the ANOINTING of the Lord Jesus Christ.
