Teacher Commitment/Statement of Faith Form

MHCS is a Christian organization which operates in accord with classic and orthodox Christian beliefs. We believe the Bible is God’s holy, inerrant Word and follow the doctrines outlined in the Baptist Faith and Message ( All classes and activities offered through MHCS will be in accordance with these beliefs.

I affirm that:

I believe that the Lord our God is the one and only living and true God. We believe in accord with classic and orthodox Christian belief, in this divine and infinite Being there are three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. We believe that they are one in substance, power and eternity; each having the whole divine essence, yet this essence is undivided. God is all powerful and all knowing; and His perfect knowledge extends to all things, past, present, and future, including the future decisions of His free creatures.

I believe the Father is not derived from anyone. He is neither begotten nor proceeding; the Son is eternally begotten of the Father; the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son. All three are infinite, without beginning, and therefore but one God, who is not to be divided in nature and being. Yet they are distinguished by several distinctive characteristics and personal relations.

I believe the Son of God, Jesus Christ, the second person in the Holy Trinity, is truly and eternally God. He is the brightness of the Father’s glory, of the same substance and equal with Him who made the world, who upholds and governs all things He has made. When the fullness of time was come, God the Son took upon himself human nature, with all its essential properties and common infirmities, yet without sin. Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Virgin Mary. The Holy Spirit came down upon her and the power of the Most High overshadowed her, so that he was born to a woman from the tribe of Judah, a descendant of Abraham and David, in accordance with the Scriptures.

I believe the Holy Scriptures are the ONLY sufficient, certain and infallible rule for saving knowledge, faith and obedience. The Holy Scriptures, or the Word of God written, consists of all the books of the Old and New Testament.

These are: The Old Testament: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1Samuel, 2 Samuel, I Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi

The New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 Thessalonians, 2 Thessalonians, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, Jude, Revelation

I believe the whole revelation of God concerning all things essential for His own glory, human salvation, faith and life, is either explicitly set down or implicitly contained in the Holy Scriptures. Nothingis ever to be added to these books of the Old and New Testaments, whether by a new revelation of the Spirit, or by human traditions.

I have read and understand the MHCS handbook.
