Statement of Faith  

Although our function is not that of a local church (or to replace your church body), we require an understanding of the following Statement of

Faith and Group Convictions

  1. We believe the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God and constitutes His completed and final revelation to man. The Bible is without error in whole and in part, and is the foundation upon which all education should be based. No denomination or individual doctrine will be promoted.

  2. We believe God has existed for all eternity in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

  3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His victorious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension and His imminent return in power and glory. Jesus Christ was God incarnate come to Earth in human flesh as both fully God and man.

  4. We believe in mans’ sinful nature and need for redemption. We believe salvation is offered as a free gift from God brought to man by grace. This gift must be responded to in individual faith, not trusting in any personal works whatsoever, but in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ alone.

Group Convictions 

We welcome Christian families of all races and ethnic backgrounds. We adhere to the Biblical view that God’s plan for marriage exists between one man and one woman. All marriage, attempted marriage, civil union, domestic partnership, cohabitation, sexual congress, or the appearance of same, outside this boundary is contrary to God’s will. God’s plan for gender that an individual’s gender is determined genetically at birth is to be their life-long gender. That which is outside God’s plan but is approved by a government entity or agency remains outside God’s plan.
