STATEMENT OF FAITH
Our Statement of Faith concerns the Person and Work of Jesus Christ (the Gospel) as revealed in Scripture. There are many other precious truths taught in the Bible over which godly men have differed in understanding. Therefore, this is not a statement of all that is important to believe, but it represents the basic principles upon which the workshops were founded and continue to operate.
“Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus; that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” — Romans 15:5-6.
All families attending Hallstrom agree to abide by this Statement of Faith.
We believe
… the Bible to be the infallible Word of God, the supreme and final authority for all faith and life.
… that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
… 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 and His imminent bodily return in power and glory.
… that man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only those who put their faith in Jesus Christ alone can be saved.
… that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose substitutionary death on the cross provided forgiveness for man’s sin.
… that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to convict men, indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service.
… in the spiritual unity of believers through our common faith in Jesus Christ and that individual doctrinal differences which may exist should not hinder the unity of Christian home educators.
