Statement of Faith
We believe in one God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who has revealed
himself in the Holy Bible. This God is present today and controls both
humankind and history. We believe and confess that:
-
God shows himself through all he has made-for God has made
everything;
-
God shows himself in justice and mercy over against the sin and evil
that has invaded God's creation;
-
God shows himself and the way of salvation in His Word, the Holy
Scriptures;
-
God shows himself most fully in his Son, Jesus Christ, who by a
miraculous birth, be came a human being for our sake, suffered, died,
and was raised to conquer the power of sin and the curse of death
under which we all live.
Further, we believe and confess that:
-
Jesus Christ is now Lord of all things; both in the created world and
in the Church-the fellowship of the redeemed;
-
Jesus Christ is now gathering and preserving his Church so that her
members may be his servants in this world.
-
Jesus Christ shall return for the Church on the day of the Father's
choosing to judge all humanity, the living and the dead.
-
This faith clearly has consequence for the church and the Christian
home. It also has special consequences for those involved in Christian
day schools, which exist in concert with the home and the church for
the nurturing of Christian teaching and life.
Because the Lord is Lord of all life, we profess and declare that:
-
Our students will be presented with the basic message of Scripture and
the redemption that has been given in Christ. Our students will be
instructed in Scriptural principles that will guide them in mature
living-in its spiritual, intellectual, and behavioral dimensions.
-
Our students will be encouraged to recognize the greatness and the
mercy of our Lord in every area of life.
-
Our students will be guided into a true knowledge of God's world, of
its history and it's culture.
-
Our students will be enabled to assess the values of the age from the
perspective of Christ's redemption and rule over all the world.
Because the Lord is Lord of all life, we further profess and declare
that:
-
Obedience to God involves us in a thorough investigation of all
reality, and that students and teachers alike should seek to integrate
their faith with all areas of learning.
-
Obedience to God involves us in an urgency to promote this Lordship of
Christ within the communities of our schools and throughout the entire
world through the agency of the schools as well as the church and
family.
All this we profess and declare in the sure and certain hope that as we
nurture our children in the knowledge and love of the Lord, God himself
will guide, preserve and bless these efforts through the work of the
Holy Spirit.
