Colossians 2:8

 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends
upon human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. (NIV)

Brief Introduction to Biblical Counseling

Biblical Counseling is Christ-centered and Christ-dependent. It is based on 2 Timothy 3:16 which states: “All Scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.” Biblical Counseling methods rely on the principles and truths revealed in the Holy Bible and counselees are directed to God’s Word as the source of information and guidance to resolve life’s perplexing problems. Any person can benefit from an honest and faithful decision to accept and follow the guidance of God’s Word.

Statement of Faith (Our Core Beliefs)

 1. The Divine inspiration of the Canonical Books of the Old and New Testaments as originally given, and preserved throughout the ages as the only infallible, inerrant and sufficient source of theology and doctrine;

2. The Triune Godhead existing in One Eternal, Transcendent, Omnipotent, personal God, manifested in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;

3. Special creation of the existing space-time universe, including all of its basic systems and organisms in the six literal days of the creation week;

4. The perfect, sinless humanity and absolute full deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, indissolubly united in one divine/human Person since His unique incarnation by miraculous virgin conception and birth;

5. The substitutionary and redemptive sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ for the sin of the world, through His literal physical death, burial, and bodily resurrection followed by His bodily ascension into Heaven;

6. Personal salvation from the eternal penalty of sin, provided exclusively by the grace of God on the basis of the atoning death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, to be received only through confession of, and individual faith in, His Person and redemptive work on the cross, to be followed by baptism and conversion from a life of sin to a life characterized by the empowering grace of the Holy Spirit, giving evidence in loving service and adherence to the principles and practices of the Christian Faith as set forth in the Holy Scriptures.

7. The future personal, bodily return of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth to judge and establish His eternal kingdom and to consummate and fulfill all His purposes, the works of creation, and redemption, with eternal reward for believers and eternal punishment for the unsaved.
