Statement of Faith

Providence Academy is founded on the following key beliefs (or core doctrines) of Christianity that will be considered the primary doctrine of Providence Academy and therefore unapologetically taught in various ways through all grade levels.

We believe… the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God, and as such, it is the final authority in faith, life, and standards of education (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21).

We believe… that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30).

We believe… in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ (John 10:30), in His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:34-35), in His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, 7:26), in His miracles (John 2:11), in His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9), through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection (John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:4), in His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19), and in His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11).

We believe… that, for the salvation of lost and sinful men, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary (Titus 3:5).

We believe… that salvation is by grace through faith alone (Ephesians 2:8).

We believe… that faith without works is dead (James 2:17).

We believe… that the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life by the Holy Spirit who dwells within him (Romans 8:13-14, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 6:19-20, Ephesians 4:30, 5:18).

We believe… in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved to the resurrection of life and they that are lost to the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).

We believe… in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:26-28).

We believe… that the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever (1 Corinthians 10:31, John 17:22-24, 2 Thessalonians 1:12, 1 Peter 4:11).
