Statement of Faith

The Biblical convictions that guide our mission, teaching, and ministry at Grace Bible Academy.

What We Believe

Our Statement of Faith summarizes the core biblical doctrines that guide every aspect of Grace Bible Academy. While this is not an exhaustive explanation of our beliefs, it reflects the foundational truths that shape our teaching, leadership, and ministry.

Scripture

The inspired and supernaturally preserved Word of God.

We believe God not only inspired the Scriptures but has faithfully preserved His Word throughout history, making it our final authority for faith, doctrine, and daily living.

Psalm 119:89; Matthew 24:35; 2 Timothy 3:16–17

Man

Created in God's image, yet fallen through sin.

We believe every person is created in the image of God with inherent value, but because of sin, all people are separated from God and in need of His salvation.

Genesis 1:26–27 • Romans 3:23 • Romans 5:12

The Trinity

One God eternally existing in three persons.

We believe in one God who eternally exists in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—equal in power, glory, and deity.

Deuteronomy 6:4; John 14:16–17

Salvation

Salvation is God's gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

We believe salvation is found only through faith in Jesus Christ. It is a gift of God's grace, received by faith—not by good works—and brings forgiveness, new life, and the promise of eternal life.

John 3:16 • Ephesians 2:8–9 • Titus 3:5 • Romans 10:9–10

Resurrection

Jesus Christ rose again, securing eternal life for all who believe.

We believe Jesus Christ physically rose from the dead, conquering sin and death. Believers will one day be resurrected to eternal life with Him, while those who reject Christ will face eternal judgment.

John 11:25–26 • 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 • John 5:28–29 • Revelation 20:11–15

Church

The Church exists to worship God, grow in faith, and share the Gospel.

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers, and is called to worship God, disciple believers, and proclaim the Gospel to the world through faithful teaching and service.

Acts 2:41–42 • Matthew 28:19–20 • Ephesians 4:11–16 • 1 Corinthians 12:12–27

Christian Responsibility

Believers are called to live lives that honor Christ.

We believe every Christian is called to faithfully share the Gospel through both words and actions.

Colossians 3:17 • Matthew 5:16 • Galatians 5:22–23 • Matthew 28:19–20

Separation

Living a life set apart for Christ.

We believe God calls every believer to pursue holiness by living in obedience to His Word, avoiding practices that dishonor Christ, and faithfully reflecting His character in every area of life.

2 Corinthians 6:14–18 • Romans 12:1–2 • 1 Peter 1:15–16 • James 4:4

Christian Living

We believe every Christian is called to grow in faith, pursue holiness, serve others with love, and live according to God's Word, demonstrating Christ through both words and actions.

Colossians 3:17 • Galatians 5:22–23 • Matthew 5:16 • Romans 12:1–2

At Grace Bible Academy, God's Word is the foundation of our mission. These core beliefs influence our classrooms, relationships, and commitment to helping students grow in wisdom, character, and faith.
