Those
organizations desiring to rent the facilities or property of Camp
Horizon must sign an agreement to the following doctrinal positions
before your retreat will be confirmed:
- We recognize the Lord Jesus Christ as eternally existent with
God the Father and God the Holy Spirit, very God and very man,
and yet one with Them as part of the Trinity.
- We believe in the Bible as the only and completed Word of God,
sufficient for instruction and guidance in all aspects of Christian
faith and practice.
- We believe Satan or the devil to be a fallen angel, Lucifer
by name, whose purpose is to oppose God, and that he is for a
time being permitted by God to be the accuser and adversary of
man. We also believe he is the father of lies and his methods
include lying, creating doubt about God’s goodness and truth,
and corrupting man kind, especially by tempting people through
the desires of the flesh, the desires of the soul or mind, and
the desires of the human spirit.
- We believe in the necessity of the substitutionary death of
the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross in order to pay the penalty
for human sin, and thus, He redeemed believing mankind from eternal
punishment in hell.
- We believe that Jesus Christ’s offering of Himself as the Lamb
of God was a once for all, completely atoning sacrifice, which
satisfied man’s debt to God. No further effort or requirement
on the part of humans, -e.g. baptism, priestly intercession of
dead humans (called "saints" by some churches), absolution, or
purgatorial cleansing is required.
- We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ will return to gather
those that are His, --i.e. those who by faith trust in His accomplished
work as their only claim to salvation and eternal life with Him.
- We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells believers at the moment
of conversion and seals them until the day of redemption. We believe
that some gifts of the Holy Spirit such as speaking in tongues
and miraculous healings were temporary. We believe that speaking
in tongues was never the common or necessary sign of the baptism
nor the filling of the Spirit and that the deliverance of the
body from sickness or death awaits the consummation of our salvation
in the resurrection (Acts 4:8,31; Rom. 8:23; 1 Cor. 13:8).
