Shekinah Christian School Employee Statement of Faith

1.    We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21).
2.    We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30).
3.    We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35), His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, Hebrews 7:26), His miracles (John 2:11), His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9), His Father (Mark 16:19), and His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11).
4.    We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature; and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace and through faith alone we are saved (John 3:16-19, John 5:24; Romans 3:23; Romans 5:8–9; Ephesians 2:8–10; Titus 3:5).
5.    We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto resurrection of life, and the lost unto the resurrection of condemnation (John 5:28–29).
6.    We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 12:12–13, Galatians 3:26–28).
7.    We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (I Corinthians 3:16, 6:19–20, Romans 8:13–14, Ephesians 4:30, Ephesians 5:18).
8.    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.
9.    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).

Dealing with Differences in Doctrinal Interpretation

Not all Christians share the same personal convictions or agree on all interpretations of Scriptural doctrines such as the mode of baptism, gifts of the Holy Spirit, prophecy and end-time events, eternal security, roles of women in ministry, divorce and remarriage, and nonresistance, among others. Those seeking employment at Shekinah must agree without reservation to the Shekinah Christian School Employee Statement of Faith above (taken directly from the ACSI Statement of Faith).

In situations where teachers differ in their doctrinal positions, SCS expects that teachers would not speak negatively about denominational teachings that differ from their own while acting in their roles as teachers at SCS. We ask that teachers respect the freedom of other believers to hold differing views of secondary and tertiary matters of doctrine that are not contained in the Statement of Faith for Employees above. In non-essential beliefs of the Christian faith, we wish to extend liberty to those who hold different interpretations from our own (1 Corinthians 8:1-13, 10:23-11:1; Romans 141-15:6; Colossians 2:8-23).

In all beliefs related to interpretations of the Bible, we ask SCS employees to exercise charity toward others. We encourage dialogue among our teachers and students and desire to lead them toward deeper relationships with Christ as we all humbly seek to grow in our faith and understanding of Scripture. Teachers should also encourage students to seek answers to matters of faith in the Bible directly, from their parents at home, and from their pastors at their local churches.

Affirmation of the Shekinah Christian School Employee Statement of Faith

I hereby affirm that I am in complete and unreserved agreement with the Shekinah Christian School Employee Statement of Faith. I recognize that my disagreement with this statement of faith would be grounds for dismissal from employment at Shekinah Christian School. Further, I pledge to honor the expressed expectations for dealing with differences on secondary and tertiary levels of doctrine.
