Licencjat w Studiach Biblijnych, specjalizacja BIBLIA I TEOLOGIA

Every student at Northpoint Bible College majors in Biblical Studies. The Bible is the Word of God. It is the only standard for faith and practice; therefore, a thorough understanding of the Bible's teaching is of primary importance for human life and education. The Bible and its theological framework form the heart of Northpoint's entire curriculum structure. The Division of Bible and Theology offers the student a challenge to approach life and learn from a biblical perspective and stimulate an appreciative love for God and obedience to His revealed will. The design of the curriculum is biblically-based, Christ-centered, and ministry-directed. This integral department's focus provides the essential data to enable each student to form a Christian worldview, develop a practical Christian life, and acquire a ministry's sound philosophy.

Northpoint Bible College is located in Haverhill's diverse city in northeastern Massachusetts, right on the expansive Merrimack River. It is one of the oldest communities in the state and sits only 20 miles from the ocean. Tax-free shopping is available in nearby New Hampshire, which borders the city. Computer technology and research industries thrive in Haverhill's business districts. Recreational activities are plenteous, including four 18-hole golf courses, a downhill ski area, two horseback riding academies, a public skating rink, and a sailing program. Residents also enjoy walking, jogging, and bird watching (there is a growing population of bald eagles taking up residence in Haverhill) along the Merrimack River. Boating on the river is also a popular local pastime. Train service is available from downtown Haverhill to the city of Boston. Just 45 minutes away, Boston affords Northpoint students abundant cultural and educational resources and three professional sports teams–with the fourth team only forty-five minutes further out.
