The members of Highland Hall Christian Homeschool Community gladly follow Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord. We believe the historic Christian faith as written in the Apostles’ Creed. The essence of our faith is that Jesus is Lord. In practice, we seek to embrace St. Augustine’s generous orthodoxy: “In essentials we have unity, in non-essentials we have liberty, in all things we show charity (love).” Any serious doctrinal differences that come up will be treated with respect toward the other members and will be dealt with by the Board as necessary. We believe it is vital for believers to regard one another with love in spite of our differences, and to agree to disagree on peripheral issues. We respect that people hold a variety of doctrinal positions, however, there are fundamental truths which a family must affirm if they wish to become members of Highland Hall.

The following is the foundation of beliefs on which Highland Hall is based. They are also the key elements of orthodox Christianity that will be unapologetically taught in various ways through all grades and programs.

1. We believe the Bible alone to be the Word of God, the ultimate and infallible authority for faith and practice.
2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is omnipotent; that is, He can do all things. He is omnipresent; that is, He is present to all creation, and has under His immediate authority all things which are in Heaven, in the earth, and under the earth.  He is omniscient; that is, He knows all things.  He readily exercises His power which is present everywhere, and to Him there is nothing that is impossible or unknown, that is, He knows what has been from eternity, what now takes place everywhere, and what will be to all eternity.
3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
4. We believe that, for the salvation of lost and sinful men, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary. 
5. We believe that salvation is by grace through faith alone.
6. We believe that faith without works is dead. 
7. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. 
8. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved to the resurrection of life, and they that are lost to the resurrection of damnation. 
9. We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
10. We believe that God wonderfully and immutably created each person as distinctly male or female (Gen. 1:26-31; 2:18-25; 5:1, 2). These two distinct and complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. To reject one’s biological gender is a rejection of the image of God within that person and is a sin against God.
11. We believe that marriage was created and sanctioned by God in which God joins one man and one woman in a single and exclusive union. (Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:4-6)
12. We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other. Any form of sexual intimacy outside of marriage is immoral and is a sin against God. (1 Cor. 6:15-7:6; Eph. 5:3-7) Sexual immorality includes, but is not limited to adultery, fornication, homosexual conduct, and pornography.
13. We believe that all human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life. (Ps. 139)

Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried;
he descended into hell;
on the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;
from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Amen.
