About Life In Abundance School of Counseling
The Life In Abundance School of Counseling (LIASC) exists to provide its students the training necessary to complete a Christian counseling degree or certification. We believe the harvest is great but the workers are few. LIASC equips those who are called into the ministry of counseling by offering Biblically-based training in theology and psychology, as well as clinical training and experience.
Statement of Faith
ARTICLE ONE:
We believe the Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of the Living God. The Bible is the final authority on all matters of life, faith and practice.
ARTICLE TWO:
We believe in the Trinitarian God of the Bible, one in substance, three in persons, consisting of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
ARTICLE THREE:
We believe that the Son of God, the second person of the God-head, took upon Himself the form of man, becoming the God-man, with two distinct natures, and by His atoning work through His death, burial and resurrection has made salvation possible for man by His free grace.
ARTICLE FOUR:
We believe that salvation is an act of God’s saving grace by the work of the Holy Spirit in regenerating and converting the hearts of men by His free gift of saving faith.
ARTICLE FIVE:
We believe in the personal return of Jesus Christ, in eternal damnation in a literal hell for the wicked, and in everlasting life, in heaven, with the living God for the righteous.
ARTICLE SIX:
We believe that there is but one Head of the church, the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the responsibility of the church and its institutions to maintain His Lordship over their activities, and not to submit that right to any individual, corporate body, governmental agency or head of state, as long as we conduct ourselves as ambassadors of Christ and live as lawful citizens.
ARTICLE SEVEN:
We believe that every area of life is to be subject to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We adhere to a world and life view which seeks to make the Lord Jesus Christ preeminent in all things.
Statement of Final Authority for Matters of Faith and Conduct
The statement of faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and inerrant Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of Life In Abundance’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, our Board of Directors is Life In Abundance’s final interpretive authority on the Bible’s meaning and application.
