Messages from the School Board

From Rev. P. G. Mathew, President

Dear Parents and Students,

Unlike the atheistic evolutionists who believe in naturalism, which affirms that mindless eternal matter created man and his god, we who are orthodox Christians believe that the infinite, personal and triune God created all things. This God reveals himself in creation and, more fully, in Scripture. We therefore delight to know God by studying creation and the Bible, so our motto is omne consilium Dei (the whole counsel of God).

The creation reveals to everyone at all times a Creator who is mighty and majestic. Every fool who negates God necessarily suppresses this truth. As Christians we study creation to exercise dominion over it and to glorify the God of infinite wisdom. To us a flower is beautiful and exudes fragrance, but most of all it declares the glory of God. We also study the Bible to know God as Savior of the world. The Lord Jesus Christ grew up gaining wisdom from creation and Scripture (Luke 2:52). May we also learn for the ultimate purpose of knowing God and enjoying him forever!

We thank God for the genesis of Grace Valley Christian Academy; for Mr. Jack Armstrong, our able and compassionate principal; for the skilled and sacrificing Christian teachers God provided; and for all the delightful disciples.
