Christian education is education in the liberal arts in that it draws on the rich heritage of Western civilization and culture. It is Christian in that it recognizes the Bible as the final authority in matters of life and thoughts. |
| 2. |
Christian education is distinctively Biblical. God’s Word is the foundation Word of all history. God’s Word is pure wisdom and truth and the only infallible rule of faith and life. We believe that students must know their Bible thoroughly in order to foster a distinctively Christian understanding of the world and life. |

Christian education is an orthodox education. All truth finds its unity in the Triune God Himself. Thus, Christian education is interdisciplinary because all disciplines find their unity in God. |
| 4. |
Christian education is evangelical education. Salvation comes by grace through faith. Salvation is not attained through education because knowledge is not power. Instead, all power belongs to God. Biblical salvation is knowing God and Jesus Christ whom He sent. |
| 5. |
Christian education is reverent education. Christian education is education in the fear of the Lord. God is acknowledged as Creator and Redeemer. |
| 6. |
Christian education is foundational in the sense that it lays a foundation for glorifying God and enjoying Him forever. |
| 7. |
Christian education is humbling. The goal of Christian education is to bring students to a clear understanding of how much there is to know while giving them a hunger and thirst for knowledge and righteousness. Students are called to master the grace of humility. |
