What We Believe
Sulamita Christian Academy Doctrine Summary
01
We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible, inerrant Word of God (2 Peter 1:21; 2 Timothy 3:15-16), and is the only rule for faith and practice (John 20:31; Romans 10:17; Joshua 1:7-8; Romans 15:4).
02
We believe in one God (Isaiah 45:22; Jeremiah 10:10; John 17:3), who exists in three persons: the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal, co-eternal, and co-essential (1 John 5:7; Genesis 3:22; Isaiah 6:8; Matthew 3:16-17).
03
We believe that Jesus Christ is God incarnate (1 John 5:20), was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for the sins of the world, was buried and rose again (1 Timothy 3:16; Matthew 1:18; Luke 1:35).
04
We believe that He ascended and is seated at the Father’s right hand, where He now intercedes for all true believers (Matthew 16:18; Ephesians 1:22-23; Colossians 1:18).
05
We believe the Holy Spirit has come to convict the world of sin; that he comes to teach and guide believers into all truth; that he permanently indwells every true believer in Christ; that he wants to fill, control and empower each believer for service (John 3:3-6; Acts 5:32; 1 Corinthians 6:19; Titus 3:5).
06
We believe that man was created in the image of God, but in Adam’s fall, every person is a sinner both by birth and by practice. (Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 45:12; Romans 3:23)
07
We believe that every person must be born again, in order to be forgiven of sin and saved from eternal separation from God (Romans 6:23; Acts 4:4; Romans 10:17).
08
We believe that the gift of eternal life is available to all men, that those who receive Christ by faith are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God (Hebrews 11:6; Ephesians 2:8).
09
We believe that the privilege and responsibility of every Christian is to grow into spiritual maturity through obedience to the Word of God and the indwelling Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 4:3-8; Hebrews 12:14; Revelation 22:11).
10
We believe that the true church is one body composed of all believers, with Jesus Christ as head. We believe that baptism and the Lord’s Supper are scriptural ordinances to be observed by the church today (Acts 2:41-47; Ephesians 1:20-23; Mark 16:15-16; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
11
We believe in the bodily Resurrection of Christ, His imminent return, and the resurrection of both just and unjust (Acts 1:11; Matthew 24:27-31)
12
We believe in the imminent and bodily Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, who will come again not to save, but to judge the wicked and reward the righteous, and set up His eternal kingdom (Revelation 20:11-15; Matthew 25:46; John 5:29).
