Tenets of Faith
According to the Constitution of the Independent Christian Accrediting, Inc., the following statement of faith is to be subscribed to annually by each member college through the signature of the president or a board official.
I. We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
II. We believe in the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
III. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and visible return in power and glory.
IV. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that, because of his sinfulness of human nature, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation.
V. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by whom the church is empowered to carry out Christ's great commission.
VI. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
