About Us

LIFE Theological Seminary (LIFE) in West Africa, formerly known as LIFE Bible College, first offered classes in a small garage on Herbert Macauley Street in Yaba, Lagos state in 1954/55.

LIFE Nigeria was named after L.I.F.E Bible College Los Angelos, established in 1923 with its initials representing Lighthouse of International Foursquare Evangelism. LIFE is however open to all denominations.

 The courses were taught by Late Rev. and Mrs. Harold Curtis, Missionaries of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel with headquarters in Los Angeles, California. They had experienced the revival associated with the ministry of Aimee Semple McPherson, our founder. Having become Foursquare Ministers, they then determined to assist in the spreading of this outpouring of the Holy Spirit to Nigeria and beyond.

Classes were first held at the present campus in Ikorodu in 1958. The Seminary remains indebted to contributors and visionaries who have sacrificed their time, efforts and finances to allow the development and expansion of the college to become a recognized leader in Christian leadership development in West Africa.

Foursquare Defined

The term "Foursquare" refers to the fourfold ministry of Jesus Christ as Savior, Healer, Baptizer with Holy Spirit and soon Coming King. The extent of this ministry is international and interdenominational as believers heed Christ's call.

Ultimatel Objective 

The ultimate objective of Foursquare Gospel Church is the evangelization of the world. LIFE was therefore named with its initials representing Lighthouse of International Foursquare Evangelism.

The Foursquare Gospel is not a sectarian message. Rather, it refers to the fourfold thrust of Jesus ministry as Savior. Healer, Baptizer with the Holy Spirit and soon Coming King. The term Foursquare' connotes "firm, straight forward, bold, without equivocation".

The Foursquare Gospel, then refers to a bold forthright declaration that Jesus is mankind's only Savior: He is the great physician, He willingly baptizes believers with the Holy Spirit; and He is coming back as reigning King.

The proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the final goal of our program, and we advance toward that goal by graduating men and women who are:

• Disciplined by serious training in the word of God.

• Humbled by an ever-deepening walk with God.

• Enlarged in Spirit by an expanding compassion for mankind; and

• Anointed from above by an inner and overflowing work of the Spirit of God.

Fulfilling the Objectives

Translated into daily living and interpersonal action the objectives form a Christ - like personality in each student. 

The Holy Spirit of God makes each student sufficient to the challenges of meeting the spiritual, educational and vocational objectives of LIFE Through God's grace and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit. LIFE seeks to graduate men and women who are;

• Spiritually rooted in the Word and anointed by the Holy Spirit;

• Emotionally mature, balance, and processed by a sense of proportion.

• Socially gracious, compelling and sensitive.

• Intellectually thorough. Perceptive and aware: and

• Dispositionally humble, gentle, yet bold.

One's growth process during his/her college years is of crucial importance if he seeks the position of a qualified leader in the work of Jesus Christ. May God grant that the growth be into the fullness of the measure of the stature of His Son.
