Statement of Faith

It is our earnest desire to see the school securely anchored in the teachings of the scriptures. In all matters of faith and practice, we desire to be guided at all times by the Word of God. All teachers, administrators, school board members, and parents enrolling their children declare unconditional acceptance of the following beliefs.

• We believe that the Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the inspired, perfect Word of God and the ultimate and infallible authority for faith and practice.
• We believe in one living, Sovereign, and true God who is infinite, eternal, and unchangeable in all His attributes. He is Creator of all things and exists eternally in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. These three are coequal in power and glory, having the same essence, attributes and perfections.
• We believe that the eternal purpose of God extends to all events. Further, we believe that His purpose is holy, wise and altogether good, does not deprive man of his responsibility, nor does it make God the author of sin. Before the foundation of the world, God the Father chose for Himself, in Jesus Christ, a people whom He gave to His Son that they should be holy and without blame before Him.
• We believe that God created the world and all things out of nothing by His powerful Word, all for His own glory. Mankind, and all life on earth, did not evolve but was created by a direct act of God. Man was created in the image of God, male and female, to have fellowship with Him and to glorify and serve Him.
• We believe that all men and women are born with a sin nature. By choice, our first parents, Adam and Eve, willfully disobeyed God and fell from fellowship with Him. Therefore, all men are sinners, spiritually dead and separated from God.
• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, and in His ascension to the right hand of the Father. He now intercedes for His church, rules over all things in her behalf, and continues His presence among His people through the agency of His Holy Spirit.
• We believe that salvation is totally by God’s grace, freely given by grace through faith to any individual who repents of their sin and trusts Christ as savior. It is an unmerited gift to the believer that is wholly dependent on the shed blood of Jesus.
• We believe that Jesus Christ will return personally, bodily, and visibly at the end of the age to judge the world, both the living and the dead. We further believe in the bodily resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous, the everlasting punishment of the unrighteous, and the everlasting happiness of the saints whom God has called to Himself in glory.
• We believe the church is the body of Christ of whom Christ is the Head. The local church serves the ordinary means of the edifying of the saints and the fulfilling of the Great Commission. We believe that Christ has ordained sacraments for the church in the present age. They are not in themselves means of salvation, but acts of obedience to our Lord and Savior. They are signs and seals of God’s covenant of grace and are properly given to every member of the visible church.
• We believe that God ordained the family as the building block upon which all peaceful and just societies are built. Biblically, families are comprised of a married union between one man and one woman and their respective children. We also believe that parents stand responsible before God for the nurture and education of their children. We encourage and support the family in this endeavor.
