Statement of Faith

It is our intent to provide our children with a distinctly Christian worldview. While we may hold to denominational differences, we agree on a common statement of faith.

  1. We believe the Bible is the infallible, inerrant word of God, and it is the supreme and final authority for all matters of faith and life. Reference: 2 Tim. 3:16-17, 2 Pet. 1:20-21, Matt. 5:18, John 5:39, Luke 24:24

  2. We believe in one God, the Creator of all, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Reference: Gen. 1:1, Deut. 4:39, John 10:30, Col. 1:16, Matt. 28:19

  3. We believe that the ministry of God’s Holy Spirit is to convict men of their sin, indwell, guide, instruct and empower the believer for godly living and service. Reference: Gen. 1:1, Deut. 4:39, John 10:30, Col. 1:16, Matt. 28:19

  4. We believe in the perfect deity and perfect humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His sacrificial death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension and His bodily return in power and glory. Reference: John 1:1, Phil. 2:6, Matt. 1:23-25, 1 John 3:5, Heb. 4:15

  5. We believe that man was created in the image of God, but chose to sin and is therefore lost and only those who put their faith in Jesus Christ alone are saved. Reference: Gen 1:27, Rom 3:23-25

  6. We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and is received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose substitutionary death on the Cross, paid the penalty for man’s sin, through His shed blood. Reference: 1 Cor. 1:30, 1 John 1:9, Rom. 10:9,10, John 10:27-28

  7. That all who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior are born again of the Holy Spirit, indwelt by the Holy Spirit and by the Holy Spirit baptized into the Body of Christ, the Church, of which He is the risen and ascended Head. Reference: 1 Cor. 12:12-14, Eph. 1:22-23, Col. 1:18

  8. The early Church met together and "continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship and in breaking of bread, and in prayers" --God's pattern for the Church today. Reference: Acts 2:42, 1 Cor. 12:12, Heb. 10:25, Eph. 4:11-32

  9. We believe that any form of sexual immorality, such as adultery, fornication, homosexualconduct, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, any use of pornography or any attempt to change one’s sex, or disagreement with one’s biological sex, is sinful and offensive to God. References: Gen. 1:27-28, Rom. 1:26-27, 1 Cor. 6:9-20.
