EAGLES Statement of Faith

As a Christian institution, we believe that the EAGLES Homeschool Group LV (EAGLES) community deserves a transparent and clearly articulated response as explained by our conviction from God’s living Word, the Bible. The Statement of Faith is considered to be “non-denominational” and encompasses those truths which distinguish Christian believers from non-believers. There are many other precious truths taught in the Bible over which believers have differed in understanding. Therefore, this is not a statement of all that is important to believe, but of all that is essential to believe for Christian fellowship and unity. The heartbeat of this policy is grounded in the love and truth of Christian scripture. EAGLES strives for unity in being evangelistic in nature, collaborative in style, generous in spirit, exemplary in stewardship, and excellent in service. We believe:

  • The Holy Bible, defined exclusively as the Old and New Testaments and consisting of 66 books, is the only inspired and infallible Word of God, inerrant in the original autographs; it constitutes the divine and only rule of faith and practice; it is the complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men. (II Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:19-21; Revelation 22:18-19)
  • The God of the Bible is the only true God and there are no other gods; the Biblical God is the Creator of the world; He is holy, just, righteous, and perfect; He is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient; He had no beginning and has no end; He is one spirit being, existing eternally as three persons - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19, I Corinthians 8:6)
  • The Jesus Christ of the Bible is God incarnate, which means God came to earth in the form of a man; He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin; He is, in the flesh, fully God and fully man, except without sin. (Luke 1:34-35; John 1:1-5, 14; I Corinthians 8:6; Hebrews 4:15)
  • All men were originally created in the image and likeness of God, but fell from perfection through disobedience, incurring both physical and spiritual death; all men are sinful in nature (born with a sin nature) and, therefore, under God’s condemnation (separated from God); man can only be reconciled to God through the atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3:23)
  • Jesus Christ paid the penalty for sin by His death on a cross and His bodily resurrection from the dead. (Isaiah 64:6; John 3:16-17; Romans 6:23; I Corinthians 15:1-4)
  • Salvation is the free gift of God and not the result of our good works; it is provided through Jesus Christ to all those who repent and believe in Him, thus becoming children of God. (John 1:12; John 3:15-16; John 10:28; II Corinthians 5:8, 17, Ephesians 2:8-9; I John 5:13)

In addition, EAGLES is committed to unashamedly uphold the Biblical teachings that God created man and that He created them male and female. God instituted marriage between one biological male and one biological female as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. We also uphold the sanctity of our sexuality as designed and assigned by God. As our culture continues down a path of messaging confusion and deception to our children and young adults, our desire is to teach our students the truth of God’s Word. We are also committed to use wisdom in ensuring that EAGLES does not become a context for students to promote and advocate sinful living and lifestyles that are contrary to our Biblical worldview.
