Doctrinal Statement Agreement

Doctrinal Statement (Please carefully read and agree to the following doctrinal statement.) 


I am a born again believer and I believe . . . 


1. the Old and New Testament Scriptures are verbally inspired of God and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are the supreme and final authority in faith and life. 


2. in one God, eternal, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, manifesting Himself in Three Persons--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; one in nature, equal in attributes, power, and glory. 


3. the Lord Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and that He is true God and true man. 


4. God created man in His own image and in a state of innocency, but man willfully transgressed God's law and lost communion with God, becoming dead in sin, corrupt in nature, and incapable of pleasing God. 


5. God has irrevocably ordained each person as a man or a woman. Marriage, which is the only appropriate place for sexual activity, can only be between one man and one woman.
6. the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice, and rose again for our justification; and all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood and are saved by grace through faith wholly apart from human merit or works.
 


7. all who receive the Lord Jesus Christ by faith are born again by the Holy Spirit through the Word of God and thereby become the children of God, possessing eternal life. 


8. in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there for us as High Priest and Advocate. 


9. in the personal and visible pre-millennial return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to reign upon the earth. 


10. in the bodily resurrection of all the dead: the saved to a life of eternal glory and bliss in Heaven with God;  the unsaved to eternal judgment of conscious suffering and woe in the lake of fire. 


11. it is necessary to hold sound and aggressive scriptural convictions of separation from liberalism, apostasy, and compromise with unbelief.
Please select all that apply.
Standards for Camp Northwest Staff 

1. Must sign the doctrinal statement from conviction, not convenience. 


2. Must maintain a maturing spiritual walk with God in order to be always ministering to the needs of others. 


3. Must be faithful in daily personal devotions, spending time in Bible reading and prayer. 


4. Must maintain a separated position from all worldly practice, in whole-hearted devotion to the cause of Christ, in a high standard of Christian conduct; since such separation, devotion, and standard is the only scriptural basis for a useful Christian life.  For this reason we oppose all practices which hinder Christian growth and detract from Christian influence, such as: worldly music, smoking, drinking, drugs, filthy language. 


5. Must reflect the testimony of Christ in personal appearance at all times. 


6. Must love young people. Love is a self-sacrificing desire to meet the loved person’s needs. 


7. Must maintain loyalty toward camp leaders. No griping; constructive suggestions welcomed. 


8. Must be faithful, dependable, and responsible. 


I have carefully read and agree to abide by the above standards during the time I am at Camp Northwest if I am offered a staff position. 

Please select all that apply.
Commitment

As a counselor or kitchen worker, I will read the Staff Handbook before coming to camp. As a counselor, I will also read the Counselor Training Manual before coming to camp. As a staff volunteer, I agree to follow the policies and rules of Camp Northwest. I will not hold Camp Northwest or any church personnel responsible for the health of, or for any accident to myself.  IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, I hereby give permission to the physician selected by the camp to hospitalize, secure proper treatment for, and to order injection, anesthesia, and/or surgery for myself.
