Our Statement of Faith
|
We believe in . . .
 |
The Holy Scriptures of
the Christian Bible as originally given by God, divinely inspired,
infallible, inerrant, entirely trustworthy and the supreme and final
authority in all matters of faith and conduct;* |
 |
The Triune God - Father,
Son and Holy Spirit - as revealed in His own works and Word; |
 |
The deity and lordship
of Jesus Christ, His substitutionary atonement for sin, His bodily
resurrection and His personal, visible return to earth in final
judgment of the world at the end of time, and His eternal reign in righteousness and glory; |
 |
The deity and personhood
of the Holy Spirit and His work of conviction, regeneration, and
sanctification, who indwells every believer equipping them with
gifts for service and witness; |
 |
The necessity of new
spiritual birth, in salvation by faith in Jesus Christ alone and the
importance of a life fully committed to the will of God in Christ; |
 |
The church as the one
universal body of Christ who is the Head, called to be God's
redeemed people; |
 |
The family, historically
understood and biblically delineated,** as the fundamental and
necessary organizing structure of human society, initiated through
the marriage of a man and a woman and sanctified in the love, moral
purity and fidelity of all its members.*** |
NOTE: It is the policy of Murphys
Christian Camp to make its facilities available only to individuals
