We declare the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are
divinely inspired, entirely trustworthy and the supreme authority in all
matters of faith and practice, indispensable and determinative for our
knowledge of God, of ourselves and the rest of creation, and for the whole
educational task.
On this basis we confess:
There is one God eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son
and Holy Spirit.
This one God is creator of heaven and earth and of all things visible and
invisible and sustains and rules over all His creation, including man, in
perfect wisdom and power.
Man was created in the image of God, and was given authority and responsibility
to rule over Creation for the praise and delight of our Maker.
In the whole of his life man either serves God, or a substitute of his own
imagination. Education therefore is never neutral, but unfolds in obedience or
disobedience to the Lord.
Man through unbelief and disobedience, has fallen into sin and brought God’s
wrath and curse upon himself and the rest of Creation. He is therefore
separated from God and blinded to the goodness of God, and to the source,
meaning and purpose of life.
Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God, is the Mediator whom the Father sent to
redeem and to reconcile the world to Himself, and the Lord Jesus whom the
Father has given all power and authority to give light and life to people lost
in sin and death.
The atoning death and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ are the only grounds
of forgiveness of sin, of regeneration, and fellowship with God. God’s purpose
for our world will culminate with Christ’s certain return.
The knowledge of God, of His Word and of Creation results from the work of the
Holy Spirit in man’s heart.
