Our academy stands on the Bible as the inspired, infallible Word of God—the final authority for faith and life. We worship the one true God revealed as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, confess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and affirm salvation by grace through faith. These convictions shape our teaching, our community life, and the hope we hold as we follow Christ together.
The Scriptures
We believe that the Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are the verbally inspired Word of God, infallible and without error, and that they are the supreme and final authority for faith and life. We accept that the King James Version is the Word of God for the English-speaking people.

The One True and Living God
We believe that there is only one God, infinite in divine perfection and eternally existing in three persons. He has revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—the same in essence and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the work of redemption.

The Origin and Fall of Man
We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God to enjoy fellowship with God; but in Adam’s sin the human race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God. Man is utterly void of that righteousness required by God and unable on his own to remedy his lost condition.
References: Genesis 1:26–27; 3:1–19; Romans 3:10; 3:23; 5:8–12; 6:23; 1 Corinthians 15:22
The Savior
We believe in the deity of Christ, His preexistence, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His substitutionary atoning death on the cross, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His priestly intercession for believers, and His personal return in glory and power. He accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross, and our justification is made sure by His literal and physical resurrection from the dead.

The Way of Salvation
We believe that salvation is the gift from God, brought to man by God’s grace and received by man when he turns to God in repentance and places his faith in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.
References: John 3:16; 14:1–11; Acts 4:12; 20:21; Romans 10:9–13; Ephesians 2:8–9; 1 Timothy 2:3–6
The Holy Spirit
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling the Christian is able to live a godly life and serve Jesus Christ. The presence of the Spirit in a believer’s life encourages a relationship with others in the body of Christ which is demonstrated by participation in a local church.
References: John 14:15–19; Acts 1:4–8; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19–20; 12:12–27; Colossians 3:12–15; Philippians 2:1–4; Hebrews 10:24–25
The Return of Jesus Christ and the Resurrection of the Dead
We believe in the personal and imminent return of Jesus Christ. He will bring about the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
References: Acts 1:9–11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18; 1 Corinthians 15:12–58; Revelation 20:11–15
