Statement of Faith

The Village School of Gaffney is a Christian school, dedicated to a vision of education that is rooted in the Triune God.
As an independent school, without institutional ties to any denomination, we remain committed to what C.S. Lewis called
Mere Christianity: "no insipid inter-denominational transparency, but something positive, self-consistent, and inexhaustible."
We hold to those truths which have united Christians throughout the ages, across the boundaries of time, place, race,
denomination, and tradition:    
·        
That there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
·        
That the Bible is the Word of God, the authoritative rule for faith and practice, without error in all that it affirms;
·        
That Jesus Christ took on our humanity and died on the cross to atone for sins and redeem a people for Himself;
·        
That Jesus Christ rose bodily from the grave and that all humanity shall also be resurrected at the Judgment,
some to salvation and some to eternal separation from God;
·        
That since humanity is sinful and lost, the regeneration of the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation;
·        
That salvation is by grace alone, in Christ alone, through faith alone, and not from good works;
·        
That good works are the fruit of true faith;
·        
That Jesus Christ is King of all the realms of life and society now and that He will return personally to consummate His Kingdom;
·        
That the only legitimate marriage is the joining of one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Romans 7:2, 1 Corinthians 7:10, Ephesians 5:22-23);
·        
That God has commanded that  no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman.
We believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, incest, fornication, adultery, and pornography are sinful perversions
of God's gift of sex. We believe that God disapproves of and forbids any attempt to alter one's gender by surgery or appearance
(Genesis 2:24, 19:5 and 13, 26:8-9, Leviticus 18:1-30, Romans 1:26-29, 1 Corinthians 5:1, 6:9, 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8, Hebrews 13:4).
