School Values
Accountability
As created beings we are accountable to God, our creator. The Bible teaches us that the saved will all stand and give an account of their faithfulness as servants. (2 Cor. 5:9-10) The unsaved, will receive eternal punishment for their rejection of Jesus Christ. (Rev. 20:12) We are accountable to God. As our ultimate authority, God has delegated authority to the home, the government, and the Church. God expects us to submit to these authorities as unto Himself. (Rom. 13:1)
2. Integrity
The manner in which we live our lives is testimony to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We must be an example of the believer in everything we say and everything we do. Integrity is a vital part of our Christian witness. (I Tim. 4:12)
3. Purity of Heart
The Scriptures teach that though man looks on the outward appearance, God looks upon the heart. (1Sam. 16:7) God does not judge us by our behavior alone but by the heart motive behind our actions (Matt. 15:17-20). God honors clean hands and a pure heart. (Psa. 24:3-5)
4. Progressive Sanctification
Christ-likeness is not a one-time event or something that happens overnight. (2 Cor. 5:17) Christ-likeness is progressive and comes through a lifestyle of submission to the Holy Spirit and consistently hearing and doing God’s Word. (James 1:22-25)
5. Servanthood
Jesus Christ left us an example of servant love for one another. (Jn. 13:12-17) We are to sacrificially serve others out of a heart motivated by love, denying self, which is an ear-mark of those who truly follow Christ. (Jn. 13:35) True servanthood can not be manufactured in the flesh but is a byproduct of a life lived in submission to the Holy Spirit.
6. Evangelism
Christians are called to care, to plead, and even to persuade unbelievers (2 Corinthians 5:11). We are to do so by being faithful to God by presenting the good news that Christ, by His death and resurrection, has secured a way for holy God and sinful people to be reconciled (John 1:12-13).
