The Faculty
PHILOSOPHY OF THE FACULTY:
It is only through the teaching of born-again Christians that spiritual morals can be taught. If the greatest need of man is redemption, then redeemed people need to be teaching it. An unredeemed person obviously does not see the need of a Savior. According to Matthew 28, it is the Christian teacher who is given all authority to teach the Truths of the Word. It is key that this teaching be consistent with the Word of God. In order for this to occur, the work of the Holy Spirit must be acknowledged. A teacher must be in communion with Christ in order to relay the Truths to the students. It is a fact that is inescapable; the world view of the teacher, in so far as he is effective, gradually conditions the world view of the pupil. It is vital that a teacher have a Christian worldview. The gift of teaching requires the teacher to tell others about the Bible and then to live the contents of the Bible in his/her life for others to see. Because of these facts, we only employ born again teachers with the same philosophy as Friendship Baptist Church.
