Covenant Code of Conduct
In this day of vanishing moral absolutes, it is imperative that all Christians be reminded that the Bible, as the revelation of God’s truth, must settle not only one’s doctrinal beliefs, but his lifestyle as well. In an ever-changing world, the Christian has a never-changing standard in the Word of God. The Abundant Harvest Bible Institute Covenant Code of Conduct is based solely upon the teachings and principles of Scripture, seeking to develop personal holiness and discipline embodied in a lifestyle that glorifies God.

The Abundant Harvest Bible Institute offers educational excellence with a distinctive purpose. Included in that purpose is a student’s total growth and development in preparation for evangelical ministry. We endeavor to impart spiritual knowledge while teaching biblical values, both of which promote the tradition of conservative, evangelical, and fundamental local churches. We are also dedicated to nurturing an exemplary lifestyle in all of our students.

Abundant Harvest Bible Institute Board of Regents, administration, and faculty have committed to the Abundant Harvest Bible Institute the highest standards of Christian conduct required to fulfill our stated mission. The following Covenant Code of Conduct is intended to guide students who matriculate at the Abundant Harvest Bible Institute. All Abundant Harvest Bible Institute students are required to adhere to the Covenant Code of Conduct and must indicate so on the application for admission.

Student Affidavit

I understand that preparation for Christian work requires my personal commitment to the Lord Jesus Christ and separation from sin. I further realize that as a Abundant Harvest Bible Institute student, I represent the Lord Jesus Christ as well as the school. I am aware that the Scriptures prohibit certain behaviors and attitudes such as stealing, lying, gossiping, backbiting, profane language, drunkenness, drug abuse, sexual immorality, occult practices, cheating, lust, pride, bitterness, discrimination, jealousy, and an unforgiving spirit. In addition, I understand that certain types of activities are questionable, and I will avoid these activities for testimony’s sake.

Therefore, as a member of the Abundant Harvest Bible Institute family, I pledge myself without reservation to the following lifestyle commitments:

• Strive for excellence as a student in everything I do;
• Submit to the authority of the Scriptures in matters of faith and conduct at the control of the Holy Spirit;
• Cooperate respectfully with those in authority at the school;
• Participate actively in promoting the cause of Christ, including endeavoring to win others to a saving faith in Him;
• Refrain from behavior that will reflect discredit upon the Lord and offend a weaker brother;
• Avoid the acts of a sinful nature: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like (Gal 5:19-21).
• Maintain a personal appearance and dress that will honor Christ.
• I understand that the Covenant Code of Conduct is designed to guide my behavior both on and off campus for the time I am enrolled in The Abundant Harvest Bible Institute.

FAILURE TO ABIDE BY THE COVENANT CODE OF CONDUCT CAN LEAD TO DISMISSAL FROM THIS INSTITUTION AT THE ADMINISTRATION’S DISCRETION.

While it is recognized that personal preferences differ and that every member of the Abundant Harvest Bible Institute community might not agree with every detail of these standards, I must honorably adhere to them. Such an attitude on my part is one of the ways I can develop Christian discipline, exhibit Christian maturity, and demonstrate the love of Christ in concern, both for the integrity of the Abundant Harvest Bible Institute and the welfare of other believers.
