54 Biblical Education Preseminary Bible Major The preseminary Bible major is designed for students anticipating graduate work in preparation for vocational ministry. It provides a sufficient foundation in Biblical subjects and the Greek language and enables the student to select elective courses from other departments which will enrich his personal and professional development. This is an ideal program for the person who believes that God is directing him into the pastoral, missionary, or teaching ministry after investing at least seven years in college and seminary preparation. Seminary candidates should also consult seminary catalogs to determine specific undergraduate requirements and adjust their programs at Cedarville College accordingly.
