Statement of Faith
*We believe that both the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God revealing the three persons of the Godhead: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
*We believe in the incarnation and virgin birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as true God and true man.
*We believe that man was created in the image of God but became separated from God by sin.
*We believe that man is redeemed by grace through faith in Christ’s vicarious atonement for sins, the shedding of his blood on the cross.
*We believe that the gift of eternal life is available to all men. Those who receive Christ by faith are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God.
*We believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ, His imminent return, and the resurrection of His people.
Philosophy of Christian Education
Green Christian School is an independent, non-profit, community supported establishment designed to meet the needs of the Christian community by providing a quality education from a Biblical perspective. We believe it is our responsibility to secure an environment that will produce an atmosphere conducive to learning, as well as to promote Christian values that will extend beyond the classroom walls.
It is our goal to be an extension of the Christian home in an effort to see each child develop in mind, body, and spirit. In this context, we are not a replacement for the home or the church. Our ultimate goal is to equip and prepare well-educated, mature, Christian men and women to best fulfill God’s calling in their lives.
In addition to the promotion of academic excellence, our program includes daily classroom devotions, prayer, and Bible study, as well as weekly chapel services to encourage Christian maturity.
