Athens School of Ministry & Worship Arts Belief Statement
We believe in:
The eternal existence of one infinite triune God—God the Father, God the Son, and God
the Holy Spirit.
The infallibility and authority of the inspired Word of God as contained within the
canonized Holy Bible.
The deity, virgin birth, sinless life, vicarious atonement, physical resurrection, and the
glorious visible return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The goodness of God, His love for all people, His desire to save, restore, and have a
relationship with all who come to Him through faith in Jesus Christ.
The sinful nature of all people, the coming wrath of God, and the necessity of salvation
through the Jesus Christ alone.
The necessity of salvation through the atoning blood of the Redeemer at Calvary.
Anyone can receive salvation and come into fellowship with God through repenting,
believing, and receiving Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord.
The physical resurrection of all people-those in Christ to everlasting joy in heaven and
those not in Christ to everlasting conscious torment in hell.
The regenerating, sanctifying, and empowering ministry of the Holy Spirit, producing the
fruit of a transformed life and imparting spiritual gifts for effective ministry.
The commission to the church to spread the Gospel throughout the world while
awaiting the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
“I have read the Athens School of Ministry & Worship Arts Belief Statement, agree with it, and agree to uphold it through my coursework and Prayer Ministry apprenticeship experiences, to the best of my ability.”
