HERITAGE BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
We can
now say that we have held our first graduation at HBTS. We honored four
of our seminarians with certificates for the work which they had
accomplished, 18 semester hours of Bible and Theological work. Along
with the classes each student took, they also turned in research papers
on the subjects of Bibliology, Anthropology, Harmartiology, Soteriology,
Theological outlines of an Old Testament book and a New Testament book,
as well as an Hebrew exegetical study on ten Old Testament verses, and a
Greek exegetical study on ten New Testament verses. They also had to
demonstrate a proficiency in learning and pronunciation of both the
Hebrew and Greek alphabets.
The Certificates of Bible and Theology are
granted after 18 semester hours of work are successfully completed. It
marks one quarter of the way toward the next degree, the Associate of
Bible and Theology Degree, which is a total of 64 semester hours. As
well, HBTS offers graduate work toward the Masters of Biblical Studies,
32 semester hours above the Bachelors degree. Biblical Studies, 32
semester hours above the Bachelors degree.

Our
Guest Preacher
Mr. Harold E. Davidson was born and
raised in
N.W. Ohio. He moved to Wyoming at age 21, and was BORN AGAIN on October
7,
1954 in Cody, Wyoming. The Lord allowed him to receive sound Bible
teaching
following his acceptance of Jesus Christ. He was quickly thrust into the
midst
of the battle for the truth of God's Word. He served in the church at
Cody,
Wyoming for over 40 years. Beginning in 1959, he began to teach God's
Word. He
later involved himself in Christian education, teaching in his church's
school
for 11 years. He worked for 11 years to establish another independent
Baptist
Church in the area. In 2006, the Lord led he and his wife, Edith, to
Connecticut to assist in the seminary training of men for the ministry
of God's
Truth. He enjoys the company of faithful men and the companionship of a
faithful wife in his older age. Presently, he is assisting Dr. Thomas M.
Strouse in the planting and establishing of the Bible Baptist Church and
Theological Seminary in Cromwell, Connecticut. He believes2 Timothy 1:9 is applicable to his
life: "Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not
according
to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was
given us in
Christ Jesus before the world began."
