Roanoke Bible College is supported by a fellowship of churches that are part of what is known as the "Restoration Movement." The goal of the Restoration Movement is to restore the church to what it was in the first century. Churches in the Restoration Movement have no man-made creeds or doctrines, but instead are built upon the teachings of only Jesus and his apostles.

RBC has a lot of rules in order to promote Christian character among its students. RA's (Resident Assistants) help enforce these rules. If a serious enough offense is committed, one might have to appear before the "Disciplinary Committee."
One of these rules is no excessive PDA (Public Display of Affection).
