Biblical Foundation Statement

Georgia Central University (GCU) is a Christ-centered institution of higher learning that is unwavering in its belief that the following doctrinal statements are foundational to the educational and spiritual growth of each GCU trustee, faculty, student, and staff member:

• We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and visible return in power and glory.
• We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that, because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation.
• We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by Whom the Church is empowered to carry out Christ’s great commission.
• We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

Institutional Philosophy

Georgia Central University emphasizes and believes in the Triune God: eternal, transcendent, omnipotent, and personal. God the Father, the first person of the Divine Trinity, is infinite, sovereign, and unchangeable in all His attributes. GCU believes in the sinless humanity and the absolute, full deity of Christ Jesus, indissolubly united in one divine-human person since His unique incarnation by miraculous conception and virgin birth. Holy Spirit, the Third person of the trinity resides among us always.

GCU believes that the Bible is the Word of God, and as such, it is our only infallible rule of faith and practice. We believe in the plenary, verbal inspiration of the Scriptures by the Holy Spirit; thus, we affirm the inerrancy of the original manuscripts whose objective truth is our responsibility to interpret in accordance with the principles of the Scriptures and to proclaim in accordance with the imperatives of the Gospel.

GCU emphasizes and believes that the universe is God's creation and his handiwork. We believe that God created human beings in His own image.
