to come later. INFORMATION ABOUT BSAA. BSAA is an accrediting association formed in 2002 which accredits only those schools that hold to and teach sound biblical principles and doctrines and uphold the authority and accuracy of the King James Version of the Bible in English or comparable foreign language translations of God's Word from the Majority Text. Schools accredited by this agency must be under the authority of a local Independent Baptist Church or a group of Independent Baptist Churches. BSAA has been formed specifically because the accrediting agencies currently operating do not require biblical standards from the schools that they accredit but accept schools that propagate blatantly heretical teachings and promote the use of bibles translated into English and various foreign languages from patently inferior texts. The Bible
tells us: Many have strayed from the faith. The need has been made clear that those holding to biblical doctrines and the authority of the Received Text and the Bibles, such as the KJV in English, the Old Valera in Spanish, the Old Lutheran in German, and other translations taken from the Received Text, can no longer walk hand in hand with those who have strayed. Therefore, the BSAA has been formed to give those holding to the Old Book and the plain doctrines taught in it a place where we can "walk together" and "be agreed" and separate ourselves from those who no longer hold to the plain truths of God's Word. We have bound together to form a body with which to present ourselves to the world as credible educators in the true Word of God, holding to the true doctrines of the Bible, and holding true to the commands in it to teach God's Word to the world. To facilitate that command, for those schools who meet the sound spiritual and sound educational criteria demanded by God for the teaching of His Word, BSAA has been instituted to give them a place where they can be examined and approved by a group of their peers who also hold to the same spiritual and educational goals and thereby assure their students that they will receive a quality education and instruction in the true Word of God.
REQUIREMENTS FOR
ACCREDITATION: BSAA is currently in the process of seeking a listing on the Federal Register of accrediting agencies. The footwork is being done. The paperwork is being done.
