About MCA
Our History And Vision
Milford Christian Academy was envisioned in the 1970’s and again in 1992. Study
was made of school models to follow resulting in a desire to resemble The New
Testament School in Long Pond, Massachusetts whose founder is Dr. Paul Jehle. A band
of visionaries, teachers and facilitators gathered around the vision and met regularly for
over a year studying and training under Dr. Jehle’s curriculum. A brief search
providentially produced our founding headmaster, Ronald Kirk, of the Master’s School in
California. MCA opened its classes in the fall of 1996 offering classes from kindergarten
through tenth grade with a student body of 34 students.
Our plan is to expand our campus as much as we can and grow our student body.
Our goal is to restore to America and the world the Biblical worldview of our Founding Fathers whose goal was to manifest the Kingdom of God in family and public life.
Statement Of Faith
-
We believe the Bible to be inspired: the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
-
We believe in one God, eternally existent in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
-
We believe everything in the created universe is declarative of God’s infinity, God’s diversity, God’s individuality. God created distinct individualities and, at once, maintains the identity and purpose of each, while He relates all into one purposeful whole; God created man as a moral individual in the image of Himself.
-
We believe in the deity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His resurrection from the dead, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory.
-
We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace, through faith, are we saved.
-
We believe in the present activity of the Holy Spirit in power to comfort and enable men in the work of Christ; Milford Christian Center is a Bible-believing church which believes in the ongoing manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit listed in 1 Corinthians 12.
-
We believe that the Gospel planted in men’s hearts is the seed of every good work of God through men; the purpose of this work is both to build an eternal Christian character and to promote the spreading of the Gospel; Christian character is God’s means of serving the human institutions which support the continuing ability to spread the Gospel; careful stewardship of all resources upon a sound conscience is essential to the work of the Gospel.
-
We believe the power of the Holy Spirit is the means by which the law of the Gospel is fulfilled in our hearts, freeing us from the bondage of sin and allowing us to govern ourselves among men.
-
We believe in practicing the Biblical covenant principle before God and among men where the internal Two Commandments of Christ are given outward form in our daily and individual and community lives.
-
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost — they that are saved unto resurrection of life and they that are lost unto resurrection of damnation.
-
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers and therefore in the principle of union, in good conscience, with others in the accomplishment of the work of God in every area of life.
