TITLE

TEACHING FOUNDATION

INTRO

Athletes in Faith is governed by Scripture. The ministry’s doctrinal framework should be stated carefully enough to establish what is taught without pretending that every interpretive question is already settled.

FOUNDATIONAL AFFIRMATIONS

Scripture is the governing written authority for Athletes in Faith teaching and practice.

There is one Elohim, Creator and sovereign over all.

Yeshua HaMashiach is central to the Good News, Kingdom proclamation, redemption, discipleship, and hope.

Salvation is the work of divine grace received through faith and is not earned by human merit.

Genuine faith produces obedience and works as fruit, not as the purchase price of acceptance with Elohim.

The resurrection is essential to the apostolic Good News and the believer’s hope.

The reign/Kingdom of Elohim is central to Yeshua’s proclamation and discipleship.

Believers are called to love Elohim and neighbor, pursue holiness and justice, serve others, make disciples, and contend faithfully for the faith.

Teaching claims remain open to examination by Scripture.

EDITORIAL NOTE

Before publication, this page should be reconciled with the final formally adopted Statement of Faith / Teaching Framework so the website and bylaws use identical doctrinal language.
