The Maryland Association of
Christian Home Educators is a private non-profit association
of Christian Home Education Organizations and select
individual families. Its purpose is to educate, encourage,
and support its members to fulfill their mission to home
educate children from a Christian perspective. Its members
ascribe to the following statement of faith:
We Believe the Bible is the
inspired, infallible, written Word of God and constitutes His
completed and final revelation to man. It is the sole rule of
faith for the believer. The Bible, in its original autograph,
is without error in whole and in part, including theological
concepts as well as geographical and historical details. God
has existed from all eternity in three persons: God the
Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ was
God come in human flesh being fully God and fully man, except
without sin. All men are in violation of God's righteous
requirements and His holy character both by nature and act,
and are therefore under His wrath and just condemnation. The
central purpose of the coming of Jesus Christ was to
demonstrate God's all holy character that he alone is just and
the one who justifies. Jesus Christ alone paid the penalty for
man's sin through His substitutionary death on the cross, the
successful accomplishment of which was attested to by His
subsequent visible, bodily resurrection. Salvation is God's
free gift to the sinner. By
God's grace alone, this gift must
be responded to by individual faith alone, not trusting in any
personal works whatsoever, but in the sacrificial death of
Jesus Christ alone.
I / we attest that our group
is truly Christian in nature and by majority of membership,
upholding the historic tenets of the Christian faith, and
supporting home education from a Christian perspective. As a
group leader, I will see that members of my group receive any
relevant information and state-wide event registration details
in a timely manner.
