The Board of Doctors, shall be comprised of Ph.D.s, Honorary Doctors of Divinity, Doctors of Apostolic Faith Theology and Christian Service, from among us within the community of the Apostolic Faith Church.
This board represents the quorum of Doctors who are committed to supporting the Apostolic Faith and its perpetual teaching in the world. They make that statement by their membership on this board. Those who are on this board serve voluntarily as their own personal contribution and giving back to the Apostolic Church from which they received their apostolic impartation.
The Board of Doctors shall provide advice, counsel, resource referencing, and the validation that the organization is operating by best practices according to generally acceptable procedures for an Academic Organization.
This board’s original members shall be seated, by being appointed to the board by the founding chairman. After the first set of board members have been seated for at least one year, they shall approve all new members added to the board by a two thirds majority vote of a least a fair quorum of the entire Board of Doctors. This Board shall use its credentials, its influence in the Academic Community, its knowledge and experience, to aid the institute with their collective resources from their portfolios in the academic community. They shall advise the organization to help the organization to achieve the highest levels of accreditation, operational efficiency, and effectiveness.
The Board of Doctors shall be Comprised of two Branches; The Academic and Administrative Branch and The Doctrinal and Theological Branch The Academic and Administrative Branch of the Board of Doctors
The Board of Academic Administrative Doctors shall be comprised of specialist in the administration of an institute of higher learning. This board is comprised of Ph.Ds. and doctors who have their credentials from regionally accredited institutions and or have experience in teaching or the administration of an institute of higher learning. Members of this board shall be empowered to confer degrees at our commencements. They shall make recommendations for the institute on best practices and industry standard operational procedures for academic organizations. They shall evaluate all earned Ph.D.s degree applicant’s portfolios, being presented for commencement.
The Doctrinal and Theological Board of Doctors
Because this is an Apostolic Faith academic organization, all of our instructions, literature, educational programs, procedures of ceremonies and services, must be identified as sound Apostolic Faith in nature. All our theologians must have confessed that they are apostolic, according to the basic tenants of the Apostolic Faith which are recognized as the main tenants of the Apostolic Faith in the IAAA Constitution.
Therefore, this board has the right, responsibility and the power to make sure that all books, tapes, electronic media--all things written or spoken, through meetings in person or via electronic means are Apostolic Faith in essence and theme and or they are useful resources to teach and confirm the Apostolic Faith.
Board of Apostolic Guardians
This institute is safely under the watch and advisement of sound Apostolics called Apostolic Guardians, such are men and women of God who are strong proponents of The Faith and know the truth when they see it and cannot be easily sucked into erroneous doctrines or popular and spiritually detrimental fads. This board shall consist of faithful and proven scholars and supporting Apostolic Faith pastors whose prayer and aim is that the Gospel be delivered to the next generation in-tact as it has come to us from the Apostles through our modern apostolic fathers. When a unanimous approval of the Apostolic Faith Community is needed those on this board will vote.

This institute is formed to encourage and promote faithfulness to the Apostolic Faith by identifying and commending us to those who are truly faithful and sound Apostolics.
To provide quality instructions for Bible courses that teach, explain, defend, and solidify the Apostolic Faith.
To provide the facilities, materials, and equipment for the in-class and online, learning of theology.
To supply instructors for other apostolic institutes such as Bible colleges, local church ministerial training programs or Sunday School teachers training.
To be a resource for pastors in the defense of the Faith.
To adequately prepare ministers and saints for a good defense of the faith.
To confer valid honorary and earned, certificates, Bachelor’s degrees, Master’s degrees, and Doctoral degrees on outstanding and effective Apostolic Faith proponents.
This Institute is validated, certified and accredited by the Apostolic Faith Community, being represented by an erudite community of Apostolic Faith scholars who are the guardians of our purely apostolic institutional philosophy.
The purpose and theme of the IAAAIT is to teach, confirm, promote and celebrate the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and those who preach it. We celebrate those who proclaim it according to the teachings of the Apostles. Therefore, in this first annual Heroes of the Faith event, we will celebrate some of the strongest and most powerful proponents of the Gospel this year. And we will celebrate others next year. We call them heroes “Heroes of the Faith” because they have stood firm on the Gospel unwaveringly. They are modern ambassadors of the truth in a dying world of darkness. These and the others who will be celebrated in the coming years of this annual event have brought light to the world as they have studied the Word of God and have laid before God in consecration to receive from God the glorious Gospel that they faithfully preach to us. We do not celebrate them posthumously but while they are alive and active in the ministry of our Lord.
The IAAAIT is an international Apostolic organization headquartered in Alton Illinois founded by Bishop Robert Douglas and Bishop Lawrence Brown Jr., which has as its mission to promote, preserve and defend the apostle’s doctrine in the world and to celebrate the proponents who propagate the Faith.
We celebrate, educate, and graduate, our most outstanding and faithful proponents of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus in the Apostolic Faith Church worldwide. The scripture given to us by God is;
Psalms 102:13 THOU SHALL ARISE AND HONOR ZION…THE SET TIME HAS COME
