STATEMENT OF FAITH
The following are the foundational beliefs on which Angels Christian Academy is based:
WE BELIEVE the Bible is THE WORD of God. It is infallible (without error); immutable (absolute); inspired (written by men â spoken by God); powerful; proven; unchanging; and everlasting.
WE BELIEVE in the One True God who is Eternal, Infinite, Holy, and the Creator of all. He alone is our Father and Savior. âThe first of all the commandments is, Hear O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lordâ (Mark 12:29).
WE BELIEVE the One True God, the Jehovah of the Old Testament, took upon Himself the form of man, and as the Son, was born of the Virgin Mary. As the apostle Paul says, âWithout controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into gloryâ (I Timothy 3:16). Jesus Christ was the One True God manifest in the flesh. We believe with the apostle Paul that âin him [Jesus] dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodilyâ (Colossians 2:9). Jesus Christ was crucified, buried, and resurrected. He was the Lamb, or Sacrifice for our sins.
WE BELIEVE in the New Birth. Jesus said, ââ¦unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of Godâ (John 3:3). We believe being âborn againâ consists of Repentance; Water Baptism in Jesus Name; and the infilling of the Holy Ghost. Peter said, ââ¦Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spiritâ (Acts 2:38)
WE BELIEVE in Divine Healing. Jesus said of believers, âThey shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recoverâ (Mark 16:18). Isaiah prophesied of Jesus, âWith his stripes we are healedâ (Is. 53:5).
WE BELIEVE God created man and woman in His own image and established marriage as a lifelong union between one genetic male and one genetic female. Biblical marriage is the only legitimate and acceptable context for sexual intimacy. (Gen 2:20-24; Matt 19:4-6; Romans 7:2; 1 Thess 4:1-8; Hebrews 13:4)
