Statement Of Faith

MISSION STATEMENT

It is the mission of SWFBI to assist the Christian and anyone who wants a deeper understanding of the Bible; to provide solid instruction in the Word of God from highly qualified professors, and to prepare the student for Church ministry or more serious Bible training, while growing their faith, assurance, and confidence.

GOAL

Our goal is for the student to be prepared to rightly divide and teach or preach the Word of God with confidence and to be ready always to answer those tough questions posed by family, friends, co-workers, or the Sunday school student.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, and only inerrant, infallible, immutable, and authoritative Word of God.

We believe that there is only one God, eternally existent as three Persons: Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, who together are our Creator, Sustainer, Redeemer, and Judge.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ and His six-day creation, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
