Become a Monthly Mission Partner

BCM’s mandate is to equip the next generation in fulfilling their calling to be ministers in the church, school, marketplace and any circle of influence. In line with this, we believe in making theological education and practical training accessible and affordable to everyone, no matter their background or financial ability.  

By default, BCM subsidises up to 70% of academic fees for our students. For full-time students, that comes up to RM800 per student per month. We currently have over 700 part- time and full-time students enrolled, with monthly subsidies amounting to RM100,000. 

In the past, we have been graciously supported by churches, mission agencies and a few generous individuals. However, costs for academic resources, training and operations have risen and require us to seek greater financial support.

We are hoping to raise RM40,000 through monthly mission partners. If 16 of us commit to a monthly contribution of RM50, we can support one student in their preparation for ministry.

Thank you for your prayers and continued support of BCM.

Building Fund

To meet the increasing demands of Christian ministry and theological education, an expansion of the college’s physical infrastructure is greatly needed. BCM hopes to construct two new blocks providing for various facilities including a multipurpose hall, library, office and accommodation for residential students. Altogether, the college needs to raise RM13 million for this project.

With your support, we will be able to continue fulfilling our mandate of training, equipping and preparing pastors as well as lay leaders for the changing landscape of Christian ministry today.

Leaving A Legacy

The BCM Endowment Programme (or BCM-EP) was established in 2017 to create a long-term channel for pastors, alumni and friends of BCM to make an abiding Kingdom difference well into the 22nd century. It provides everyone who believes in BCM’s mission to make small, painless and regular monthly gifts to sustain three specific century-long College goals.

If Jesus chooses to tarry, we hope to raise, by 2027, between RM25 million and RM50 million in seed capital to provide BCM with a fresh, sustainable inflow of passive portfolio income of at least RM1 million a year.

This additional steady stream of cash, quite apart from our active fundraising efforts for general expenses, will allow us to:

  1. Provide scholarships to more students answering the call of Jesus to full-time ministry;
  2. Expand, upkeep, maintain and modernise BCM’s ageing facilities; and
  3. Raise the salary levels of BCM’s staff and faculty from the bottom-tier of regional seminaries.

NOTE:

Long before we reach our RM25 million to RM50 million target, hopefully by 2027, we plan to begin disbursements from the BCM-EP portfolio once its value exceeds a modest RM5 million sometime around 2020.

That first RM5 million raised will be conservatively locked up in fixed deposit accounts for partial interest-only drawdowns.

In time, amounts beyond the first RM5 million will be further allocated within a diversified savings and investment portfolio administered by an Investment Committee comprising investment professionals and money savvy pastors selected by the BCM Board with the full approval and endorsement of the AG Exco.

The primary mandate of this Investment Committee will be to prudently manage – for long-term compounding growth – the BCM-EP seed capital to steadily fulfil the programme’s three stated goals listed above.

Toward that end, we at BCM invite you to contribute any sum – ideally via automated bank transfers – between RM20 and RM200 per month.  We take our record keeping on your behalf very seriously.  Therefore, please let us know once you initiate your monthly transfers by emailing us at biblecm@gmail.com

Statement of Faith

Bible College of Malaysia subscribes to the Statement of Truths of the Assemblies of God summarized as follows: 

We believe:

the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the infallible rule of faith and conduct for all men.​

there is one God, eternally existent in three persons–Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His visible future return to earth to rule for a thousand years.

in the rapture of the Church at Christ’s return to this earth; this is the blessed and living hope of all believers.

by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin: and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.

the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the cleansing power of the blood of Christ.

regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.

by Christ’s atoning death on the Cross, healing for the human body is available in answer to faith and prayer.

in the baptism in the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4, which may be received by all believers for effective life and service.

in the dwelling sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit which enables the Christian to live a holy life.

in the bodily resurrection of the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting punishment.

History of Bible College of Malaysia

The Bible College of Malaysia (BCM) traces its humble roots to an American missionary couple, Delmer and Eleanor Guynes, who were sent to Malaysia to serve God in the 1950s. Initially established as the Bible Institute of Malaya, the college officially opened its doors in 1960 and in 1962, the first batch of students consisting of four men and three women became the first graduates.

As an education institution, BCM’s primary mission is to equip and provide holistic training to men and women called by God so that they may advance the gospel of our Lord effectively with their God-given gifts – in Malaysia and beyond.

In 1982, the college was renamed the Bible College of Malaysia with the introduction of the Bachelor of Theology program. Seeing the need for more lay leaders, the Certificate of Biblical Studies was introduced in 1986. As demand grew for higher-tertiary Christian studies, a suite of Master programs was introduced in 2004.

All programs were initially in English. Between 1968 and 1972, under the leadership of Rev David and Alice Nyien, certain programs were made available in Chinese. In 1980, a full-fledged Chinese faculty was established. Today, the Chinese faculty offers a full suite of programs from Bachelor to Master to Counseling programs. 

Strategically located in Malaysia, the paramount focus is to equip more local native speakers. As the need arose, Rev Peter Wong, Rev Ng Kok Kee and Rev Wendy Ching established the Bahasa Malaysia faculty in 2003. The faculty offered a Diploma of Theology and subsequently, a Bachelor of Theology. 

Our experienced and caring teaching faculty come from diverse backgrounds of ministry and missionary experience. Not only will their academic expertise stretch and deepen your biblical knowledge and thinking, but their life experience in the field provides practical application for holistic learning. See our Academic Team.

In the 60 years since its establishment, BCM has trained over 1000 ministers for Christ. Among them are 700 full-time ministers, 200 bi-vocational pastors or lay leaders in the workplace, 14 missionaries, 9 parachurch workers, 31 social concern workers and 5 evangelists. 

Tapping into the robust network and ecosystem at BCM, some alumni are itinerant preachers. Among the people trained at BCM, many of them go forth to fulfill their calling in different parts of the world; Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Cambodia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Japan, China, Hong Kong, USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Africa, and the United Kingdom.

BCM graduates are highly regarded in the Christian community. Graduates work nationwide and overseas as church pastors, missionaries, in university ministries and para-church organizations, or return to the workforce for ministry opportunities and are more equipped to serve in the local church.
