What We Believe

1

The Bible

We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired and only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
2

God

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3

Christ

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.
4

Salvation

We believe that, for the salvation of lost and sinful men, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary.
5

Justification

We believe that a person is justified through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone.
6

The Holy Spirit

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
7

Eternal Life

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost – they that are saved, unto eternal life, and they who are lost, unto eternal damnation.
8

The Church

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and His church.

We believe this statement of faith to be a summary of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, found in the Scriptures, and consistent with the confession of orthodox Christian doctrine expressed in the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms.

St. Stephen’s Academy was established through the ministry of Evergreen Presbyterian Church, a congregation in the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). The Evergreen Session adheres to the Westminster Standards. From its inception, St. Stephen’s has been built on a foundation that puts Scripture first but acknowledges the Westminster Standards as a faithful summary of the Scriptures. Our curriculum reflects these commitments. While we gladly accept students and families from other evangelical traditions, from other religions, and from outside the Christian faith, St. Stephen’s was established by a confessional Protestant church. We expect that our families understand this and that they will support and promote who we are.
