We at Calvary Academy have an obligation – to our founders, our parents and students, to the church, and above all, to Jesus Christ – to stand for something. What will follow are some thoughts on what that “something” is.
The first subject noted in Calvary Academy’s Statement of Faith is God. Our statement affirms that “we believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, Holy Spirit.” This is a fact and a mystery. This truth also provides endless insight into the purpose for which we have been created. Thankfully, there is only one God, which means that all life comes from and depends upon that one God.
Yet, the one God exists in three persons, whom have the same power, wisdom and glory. They are co-equal in nature. The unity and oneness that they share are signs of the invitation they offer us to have fellowship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is both an unbelievable privilege and an all-consuming responsibility.
At Calvary Academy, the existence of God is foundational to its entire educational life. Without this belief, we would lose our Christian status and our ability to present students with eternal life. This is what we stand for, the absoulute and eternal existence of the one God and Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. This reality, all by itself, is a cause for absolute, deep and abandoned worship. True education begins as men and women, boys and girls bow down in worship to the Lord.
