Doctrinal Statement

Trinity Christian Academy operates according to the following statement, expressing our understanding of the Bible and what it teaches.

1. We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of both the Old and New Testaments, i.e., that the very words of the original Scriptures are infallible and inerrant and that they are our final and absolute authority in every area of life and knowledge.
2. We believe in one God, eternally existing in three co-equal Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and that He is both undiminished deity and genuine humanity in one person forever.
4. We believe that God the Holy Spirit is a personal Being who convicts the world of sin and who regenerates, indwells, empowers, guides, and bestows spiritual gifts on believers, and who seals them eternally for God.
5. We believe that man was created by a direct act of God in His image, not from previously existing life, that all men sinned in Adam (the historical father of the entire human race) and thus incurred both physical and spiritual death; and that all men have inherited a sinful nature.
6. We believe that Jesus Christ died as a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins and that through faith in Him as Lord and Savior, we are declared righteous by God and are eternally secure in Christ.
7. We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, totally apart from human merit, and that the experience and regeneration produce a new creature in Christ.
8. We believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead, physically and bodily, and that He ascended in like form into heaven, where He continually ministers as our Great High Priest and Advocate.
9. We believe that this age will be consummated by the literal, visible and bodily return of Jesus Christ to this Earth.
10. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost.
11. We believe that all believers are under the mandate of Jesus Christ to proclaim the Gospel to all the world.
12. We believe that the term marriage has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture (Genesis 2:18–25). We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other (1 Corinthians 6:18, 7:2–5; Hebrews 13:4). We believe that God’s command is that there be no sexual intimacy outside of or apart from marriage between a man and a woman.
13. We believe that God wonderfully foreordained and immutably created each person as either male or female in conformity with their biological sex. These two distinct yet complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God (Genesis 1:26–27).
