What We Believe

The theological convictions behind everything we teach.

You deserve to know where we stand.

When you bring a curriculum into your home, you're not just choosing lessons — you're choosing whose voice helps shape your child. That's a serious thing to hand over, and you should never have to guess what we believe. 

So here it is, plainly. Full Life Institute is a non-denominational Christian organization. These affirmations shape every unit we write and every conversation we have.

The Word of God

We believe the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and the absolute authority both in faith and conduct.

The Trinity

We believe that there is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

God the Father (Yahweh)

We believe God the Father (Yahweh) is the creator of heaven and earth.

We believe He is sovereign, all powerful, embodying perfect love, holiness, wisdom and care. 

We believe He desires a personal relationship with humanity, a connection that is established through Jesus Christ His son.

Jesus Christ

We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit.

We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings.

We believe through His sacrificial death, took the place of humanity, bearing the divine punishment of sin so that individuals may achieve reconciliation with God the Father and have eternal life.

We believe in Jesus’ death and resurrection on the third day, His ascension into heaven, His perpetual intercession for His people, His personal and imminent return and being the Righteous Judge.

Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is the “Comforter” (Helper, Advocate, Intercessor) who will teach us all things and bring to our remembrance all things spoken in the Word of God.

Man

We believe man was created in the image and likeness of God.

We believe because of Adam’s disobedience, sin, death and suffering entered the world resulting in all human beings to be born with a sinful nature.  Thereby, the subsequent need for God’s grace and redemption through Jesus Christ.

Marriage Covenant

We believe marriage is a sacred lifelong union between one man and one woman instituted by God in Genesis and affirmed by Jesus in Matthew. We believe the marriage covenant is meant to be exclusive, intimate and reflect Christ’s relationship with the church as described in Ephesians. We believe marriage serves as a basis for family, procreation and the upbringing of children and it is a path to spiritual growth for both partners.

Salvation

We believe that all who by faith received the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior are born again in spirit, receiving the Holy Spirit and a new nature and are made a part of the Body of Christ.  The terms of salvation are repentance from sin toward God and a personal, heartfelt faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.  This salvation is entirely by the grace of our Lord and not of works.

We believe that each believer has direct access to God the Father through the Lord Jesus Christ.  Each person must believe for himself, be baptized for himself, obey for himself and answer to God for himself.

Apostolic Ministry

We believe in the foundation work of the apostolic ministry which is to preach the gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons in the Name of Jesus, and to equip believers to mature in their faith and fulfill their God-given purpose.

What this means

in practice

Scripture is woven throughout

Faith isn't a separate subject in our curriculum. It's the lens — present in language, science, snack time, and outdoor exploration. We use the English Standard Version.

Parents lead, we equip

We don't replace you. We give you the words, the plan, and the support so you can disciple your own child with confidence.

Some topics belong to you

There are conversations that belong in your family, on your timing. Our early childhood materials stay focused on foundations and leave those to you.

Questions are welcome.

If you're weighing whether we're a fit for your family, we'd rather talk than have you wonder. Reach out anytime.
