Our Statement of Faith
CHAT is a Christian co-op for families involved in home education. As a Christian group, we find that our members have basic beliefs in common, though our group includes many facets of the Christian faith. Applicants for membership in CHAT must affirm their belief in these statements by their signature on the membership form. Our members believe:
- The Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God and as such contains God's completed and final revelation. (John 1:1)
- God exists in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Matt. 3:16-17)
- All men are in violation of God's law by nature and act. As a result, all are under his condemnation. (Rom. 3:23)
- Jesus came to pay the penalty for man's sin through His substitutionary death. (John 3:16)
- Man cannot save himself from God's condemnation by his own works, but must receive His free gift of salvation through the grace of God. (Eph. 2:8-9)
You will find a wide variety of motivational forces behind our members' desires to home school. The majority of our members are home educating because of their belief in their God-given responsibility to oversee and supervise the education of their children.
