DOCTRINAL POSITION
International Association for Christian
Educational Accountability
"The Biblical
Alternative to Traditional Accreditation"
|
The International Association for Christian
Educational Accountability (IACEA) believes:
-
That the Bible is the inspired,
infallible, eternal Word of God.
-
In
one God, eternally existent in three persons:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
-
The
Bible's Genesis account of creation.
-
In the Deity of Jesus as the Christ, His virgin
birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His
vicarious and atoning death on the cross, as our
perfect sacrifice, through His shed blood.
-
In His bodily resurrection, His
ascension to the right hand of the Father as our
Lord and intercessor and His personal return in
power and glory, to judge the living and the
dead.
-
That in Jesus dwells all of the fullness of
the Godhead in bodily form and that Jesus is
the image of the invisible God.
-
That all have sinned and fallen short of
the Glory of God and that all people are in need
of Salvation, by grace, through faith in the
completed work of our Lord and Savior Jesus, our
Christ, who is the Messiah prophesied of in the
Old Testament scriptures.
-
That
salvation is the free gift of God by Grace,
through Faith and not accomplished through good
works but freely given to each individual who
has, by Grace through Faith, received the Lord
Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
-
That all
who are saved should desire
a close personal relationship with our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ, that we should serve Him as
sanctified servants in obedience to His Great
Commission.
-
In the very present
ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose indwelling
empowers Christians to live a godly life.
-
In the resurrection of both the saved
and the lost; those who are saved, unto a
resurrection of eternal life, in a spiritual
body, to a literal heaven and those who are lost
unto a resurrection of damnation, in a literal
hell.
-
In the spiritual unity of
believers, who comprise the body of our Lord
Jesus Christ, who is the head of HIS body, the
one true, called out assembly, recognized as the
Ecclesia or Church.
-
That through the
free gift of faith, God, by His Grace, draws
those who will believe the Gospel of our Lord
Jesus Christ, unto repentance and faith.
-
That God’s Love, Grace, and Mercy
endures forever.
