Statement of Faith

Brunswick Christian Academy places primary emphasis upon living the Christian life and focusing upon developing positive Christian character. For this reason, we affirm each of the following truths:

1. The Bible is the inspired, God-breathed, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is also the Christian's final word on faith and practice (II Timothy 3:16).
2. The birth of Jesus Christ is evidence of His deity in that He was virgin-born and was God in the flesh (Matthew 1:20).
3. The blood of Christ shed on Calvary is the only atonement for man's sin (Hebrews 9:22, I Peter 1:18-19, I John 1:7).
4. The death, burial and bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and His ascension into heaven are truly a reality (I Corinthians 15:1-4, Acts 1:11).
5. The existence of the Godhead as a trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) has been from eternity. Three distinct persons yet one in substance and nature (Matthew 28:18-19, Mark 12:29).
6. True believers in Christ are called to a life of consecration as giving evidence to the world that the Lord Jesus Christ saves and satisfies (Romans 12:1).
7. Jesus Christ will return to the earth literally, bodily, and visibly to judge the living and the dead (Acts 1:11, Revelation 20:11-15).
8. Sin has separated all of mankind from God. Until a person is convinced through the Holy Spirit of God that he/she is guilty of breaking God's law, repentance is impossible. Once a person acknowledges their sins against God, repents, confesses their sins to God, and exercises faith in Jesus Christ's sacrificial death, they receive salvation. Spiritual birth takes place the instant that repentance, confession, and faith is exercised in Jesus Christ. The conversion experience will bring about a definite, noticeable change in a person's lifestyle called the work of sanctification through the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:12 and 8:29, II Corinthians 5:17).
