Statement of Faith
Parents are asked to certify their agreement with this Statement of Faith document.
1. We believe the Holy Scripture of the Old and New Testament to be the inspired Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and obedience.
2. We believe that there is one God, eternally trusted in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
3. We believe that man, created in the image of God, disobeyed, fell from his original righteousness and became dead in sin.
4. We believe that Jesus Christ, the incarnate, sinless Son of God, was crucified and rose, bodily, from the dead so that those who receive Him by faith would have everlasting life.
5. We believe that regeneration by the power of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful man, and that His indwelling enable the Christian to live a godly life.
6. We believe in the personal return of Christ to judge the living and the dead.
7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
8. We believe that God has given parents the responsibility of bringing up their children in the “nurture and admonition of the Lord.” Since the accomplishment of this objective is a very complex task, parents look to the school and the church for assistance in reaching this goal. We believe that a consistent and meaningful education will result when the home, school, and the church are in agreement on the basic concepts of life. Only as the sum total of all learning is seen in the light of God’s Word will the pupil be able to differentiate the truth from error. With the aid of Christian teachers in a Christian environment, we believe these goals will be realized.
