KARIKUNZIRA Leonce  from Gitega is a student from kanyosha. She is an evangelist at her church. When we spoke to her she said:” Before  i came to atend the bible training centre for pastor, when i stand before the congregation, preaching I was mixing Ideas. I did not know how to express all my ideas clearly. When I started to attend the  bible training, I lent so many things that helped me to organise my self befor I start to preach. I lent how to point the target. The bible study Method/interpretation, this book taught me cleary the location of each book in the bible, I lent how to find the author of each book and  helped me to know the content of each book. It was very intersting because I saw where I went wrong before I started the to atend the BTCP.  Now we are doing the 6th  book”Personal spiritual life.” This book inspired me a lot. I got to know the difference between spiritual life and adapt it with the realy life that we have at the moment. In the other words, there are a number of Christians who forget that they are no longuer living in this earth. BTCP taugh me how I must behave as a comited person, how I have to live with others who are not saved, how to shine for people so they can become Christians born again. I am now inquisitif to see the content of the left of the modules. When I am standing in front of the congregation I feel very confident , something that was not happening before. I am supporting the law of the governement that says that every pastor must show a document that prove that is able to preach the word of God.  To conclude, I can say that BTCP  is a very good school that help people to increase the faith and enable pastors to preach correctly the word of God.  October 2022

This is my testimony of this third book written and testified by me. Through these teachings I’ve known many things that I knew nothing in the past. Moreover from when I put my legs in this Bible School I’ve understood that the Bible is the Word of God also I’ve seen that the Bible is divided by 66 books. On the other side I’ve been taught four good news. Those ones are Matthew, Mark, Luke and John then that good news talked to Jesus about how Jesus preached. Then through these new lessons I’m getting I assure you that I will never and never let other people spending there times wondering rather than coming together with us in this Bible School.  Thank you so much! N.

Here is my testimony of what I have already gained through the bible training Centre for Pastors that I have entered in for the first time. In this bible school I understood that the origin of the church. I understood that the church has been created by God himself due to the death of Jesus-Christ in which Jewish and non-Jewish have been reconciled in order to become one and form the body of Christ. I also understood that Jesus is the man stone and the chief or the head of the church because it’s in him that the church exists and believes. I understood again that the church is in Christ. I thank God for this occasion that he gave me because before entering on this school I was not informed about the origin of the church but today I have more information about it. It’s why I can’t forget to thank those who willingly planned to bring this bible school here in Burundi. May you really be blessed. F.

After being a student in the bible training Centre for Pastors I have improved so much things. I have been taught the virginal birthday and the resurrection of Jesus-Christ. In this I saw that these two things are the fundamental miracles that have been operated that require believing as a Christian. I understood that without the virginal birthday, Jesus-Christ wouldn’t have been God but only a human being with the nature of sin like other people. He wouldn’t have been qualified in order to be the holy sacrifice of God. Now I knew that Jesus-Christ the same time was at a human being one hundred pour cent and God one hundred pour cent and now I believe it. In short, I thank my lord Jesus-Christ who has opened my mind in order to follow these studies. I thank my teacher who is regularly with us. Without forgetting to thank those who planned to bring this bible school here in our country. May God bless you. E.

I am very glad to get this opportunity of presenting my testimony through the bible training centre for Pastors school. In this bible school I knew that even though these are some who say that Christ has died only for the elected (those that God has chosen to be saved) the testimony of scriptures admit that Jesus-Christ has died for every people even though all persons will not be saved because all persons will not get an occasion of believing by faith the mercy of sin that we got on the cross. There are some who believe it and others who don’t believe it. I understood that Jesus-Christ has died for all the lost people even for those who reject him. I knew also that because of Jesus-Christ all persons can be saved. I, personally thank this occasion that I got in order to be in this bible school. To be here is a great thing for me I am improving so many things. It’s why I thank those who got an idea of implanting this bible school here in Burundi. May God bless you. M.

As far I am concerned I am very happy to get this time in order to present my testimony through the bible training Centre for Pastors. In this bible school, I improved so many things. I knew that Jesus-Christ on the cross bore our sins on his own, has paid our debt, and has become a sinner in our place so that we may be bought back, forgiven, and brought back in good relationship with God. In this again I saw that his death was volunteer, sacrificial, enough for all. Now because of this I know that I got the freedom when I sin I know who to ask for forgiveness. I would like to thank my friend my Reverend who has showed me where to follow these teachings .I thank also my teacher who is regularly with us, I can’t forget to thank very much those who got an idea of bringing this bible school here in Burundi.  To God be all the Glory N.

This is a good occasion that I get in order to give testimony of what I have already gained through this Bible school that I have entered in for the first time. I became able to understand the origin of angels. I saw that the angels have been created before the creation of the earth but in Genesis 3 I saw that there are some who have tried to revolt. Their sins preceded the sin of a human being. Finally, I thank my heavenly father who gave me this revelation of being in this bible school; I thank also my teacher who does whatever possible in order to make us understand these teachings. I can’t forget to thank those who brought this bible school here in Burundi. May God bless you. J.A.

Conclusion

Trying to evaluate, I am very thankful referring to the way that teachings are given. An amazing thing is that those who are following these teachings try to inform others about the importance of this bible school and we see a list of different people who come and ask for the registration for the teachings in order to attend the class next year.

For teachers, they are giving their times, they are regular at school even though there are some among them who live so far away from where they live to the class but they try to be on time. They use technics and methods that they have learned.

I thank you much for your prayers support, and stipends required.

To God be all the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Respectfully,

Bishop MANIHANKUYE Jean Bosco

I thank BTCP Programme for being supportive towards understanding my calling. I have direction and full hope through learning and practicing the word of God through gospel truth. I no longer move around looking for prophesy on my life and future. I believe and I am studying the active indwelling word of God.

I appreciate the CWO Board for the BTCP Programme to me and the church. I got engaged and active in Bible reading and studying. This has improved and changed my culture of reading the Bible, uplifting my spiritual standards and evangelism on crusades and door to door ministering of the gospel.

I used to take everything I heard from other Christians at face value. Now I study the Bible for myself with confidence.

Pastor Ben
After three years of as a pastor I still had no Bible training. My wife came home and told me about the Bible school in town. I called the pastor and enrolled in the classes. Thank you for planting a seed here – I know a great harvest is coming.

Pastor Ben

Will
Taking these classes has made me a better witness for Jesus. Now I have much greater confidence in the Bible as the Word of God and this has increased my ability to share the Gospel.

Will

Pastor Georg
Thank God for this opportunity. For a long time I wanted to go to Bible college, but knew that I could not afford it. A brother told me about the Bible school and I am so glad he did. Now my wife and daughter attend the classes with me, too.

Pastor Georg

Linos
Last year I was asking God what He wanted me to do. I did not have much self-confidence and my faith in God was weak. One of the members of this church told me about the Bible school. So, I enrolled in the classes and even joined this church. It has changed my life – I pray with greater faith in God and I have much more self-confidence. In fact, now I am leading the men’s ministry here at this church.

Pastor Ernest
The Bible school is the best thing that has happened to this church.
