Doctrinal Agreement Form

All KMBC Applicants must review and respond to KMBC's Doctrinal Statement

Kentucky Mountain Bible College is committed to the Wesleyan interpretation of Christian doctrine, including the following positions:

1. the supreme authority, the divine, plenary inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, inerrant in the original.
2. one God, self-existent, revealed in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit who are co-equal and co-eternal.
3. the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, vicarious atonement, bodily resurrection and personal premillennial return.
4. the person and the deity of the Holy Spirit.
5. the lost condition of man who was made in the image of God and by transgression fell.
6. the universal inheritance of depravity of soul and spiritual death.
7. justification provided through Christ’s atonement for all who repent and believe.
8. entire sanctification as an instantaneous work of grace wrought in the believer through faith, subsequent to regeneration and witnessed to by the Holy Spirit: the heart is cleansed from all sin and filled with the pure love of the Holy Spirit.
9. the progressive growth in grace toward Christian maturity through a consistent Christian life of faith and good works.
10. the resurrection and glorification of the saints and the eternal punishment of the wicked.
11. the ordinances instituted by Christ: water baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
12. a Biblical view regarding marital faithfulness and monogamy, condemning promiscuity, fornication, and homosexual acts/lifestyle.

Footnote: We believe the Scriptural gift of languages recorded in Acts 2 is a gift of a foreign language for the propagation of the Gospel. Speaking in unknown tongues in public or private worship (including "prayer language") contradicts Biblical teaching. The practice or promotion of such is not permitted. (While we do not endorse modern charismatic practices, we do maintain warm-hearted Christian fellowship with those who do.)
