Statement of Faith

Westminster Christian School is an interdenominational Christian School whose staff and families represent a number of churches. The Board of Trustees and Board of Proprietors publicly declare their commitment to the following Biblical truths consistent with Westminster Christian School’s Charter.

We believe:

  • The Bible to be the inspired word of God.
  • In God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • That all humans are created in the image of God and were given dominion over the earth in strict and loving obedience to God, to interpret all reality in accordance with His design and law.
  • That we, by nature disobey God’s law, and are therefore subject to eternal death.
  • That separation from God has resulted in a fallen world infected by the misery and sorrows of human sin.
  • That Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, died and was buried, was resurrected from the dead and ascended on high. He is seated at the right hand of God the Father and will return to judge the living and the dead.
  • That Jesus by his life, death and resurrection, is the holy lamb of God who has purchased redemption for all those who believe in Him and commit themselves to a life of trust in Him as their personal Saviour and obedience to his teaching.
  • All true believers are indwelt by the Holy Spirit who enables them to trust and obey Jesus.
  • Such believers are through God’s grace made members of the Church militant and upon dying enter into eternal life with Jesus and continue as members of the Church triumphant.
  • As members of the Church militant such believers remain subject to all the vagaries of living in a fallen world
    but through devotion to Jesus, His word and help of the indwelling Spirit are enabled to fight the good fight of
    faith and persevere through all manner of trials and difficulties with joy amidst suffering.
