† STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe . . .
the Bible in its entirety to be the inspired Word of God and the infallible rule of faith and conduct. (2 Tim. 3:16)
in one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Creator of all things. (1 John 5:4-6)
in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His personal, future return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand years. (1 Cor. 15:3; 1 Peter 2:21-24; John 3:16)
in the resurrection of the dead, the eternal happiness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost. (John 5:24, 28, 29)
in personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of Jesus Christ
in the Christian's hope: The soon-coming, personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thes. 4:16-18)
† STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
We believe . . .
that each student is a distinct individual creation of an omnipotent God. (John 1:3; Eph. 2:10; Eccl. 12:1)
that each individual student is the creation of God and, therefore, is the property of God. (Ps. 119:73; Col. 1:16)
that each student must be a careful and faithful steward of his conscience. (Acts 24:16; 1 Cor. 8:7-10; 1 Peter 2:19; Heb. 10:22)
that each individual student is directly responsible to God for the direction of his life. (Ps. 119:105; Prov. 16:9; Ps. 37:23)
