What We Believe

Biblical Foundation

Round Rock Christian Academy is based on a Biblical philosophy of life. Its objectives are Christ-centered and not man-centered. We believe in the existence of mighty God, that He is sovereign, and He alone is the source of all truth. God has revealed Himself through His creation, through the person of the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the written Word, the Bible.

Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me.” He alone is the mediator between God and man. He is the source of all wisdom and knowledge. Jesus Christ is central to the existence of Round Rock Christian Academy.

Additionally, we believe the key to the Christian education process is the teacher. The teacher must be a role model whose life is a living testimony of what it means to be a committed Christian conformed to the image of Christ.

The Bible teaches that man was created by God in His image; therefore, man has dignity, worth, and value. In order to achieve God`s purpose and meaning in life, man must live in dependence and subjection to his Creator.

Statement of Beliefs

  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (2 Timothy 3:15; 2 Peter 1:21)
  • We believe there is only one God eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1; Matthew 28:19; John 10:30)
  • We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:35); His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15; 7:26); His miracles (John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3; Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 2:9); His resurrection (John 11:25; 1 Corinthians 15:4); His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11).
  • We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace and through faith alone we are saved (1 John 3:16-19; 5:24; Romans 3:34; 5:8-9; Ephesians 2:8-10; Titus 3:5).
  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
  • We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9; 1 Corinthians 12:12-13; Galatians 3:26-28).
  • We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13-24; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30; 5:18).
  • We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female.  These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God (Gen 1:26-27).   God has uniquely created each person to live their life as He created them, male or female, to serve and glorify God in their life.
  • We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning:  the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture (Gen. 2:18-25).  We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other (1 Cor. 6:18; 7:2-5; Heb. 13:4).  We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman.
  • We believe that any form of sexual immorality is against God’s commands (Matt. 15:18-20; 1 Cor. 6:9-10).
  • We believe that God offers redemption and restoration to all who confess and forsake their sin, seeking His mercy and forgiveness through Jesus Christ (Acts 3:19-21; Rom. 10:9-10; 1 Cor. 6:9-11).
  • We believe that every person must be afforded compassion, love, kindness, respect, and dignity (Mark 12:28-31; Luke 6:31).  Hateful and harassing behavior or attitudes directed toward any individual are to be repudiated and are not in accord with Scripture nor the doctrines of RRCA.

Vision Statement:

Round Rock Christian Academy will be the standard for college-preparatory, Christian education.

Round Rock Christian Academy has provided quality Christian education in Round Rock and the greater community for over 40 years, equipping students with an excellent academic and spiritual foundation.  Our desire is to partner with Christian families to help educate through discipleship, encouraging each student to develop a Christian worldview and to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ.

We are a “Christ-centered, college-preparatory school equipping and developing students to effectively integrate Biblical truth and academic learning into their daily lives to impact their community for Christ.”  As a school, we want to keep God’s Word at the center of everything we do, instilling Christian character in our students, who are strong in their faith, sharing compassion and love as they serve others.

We are also committed to offering a college-preparatory program of excellence to our students.  We feel it is our responsibility as Christian educators to prepare our students to be successful in their academic endeavors.  Therefore, we maintain high educational standards through the accrediting process of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and AdvancED.  This dual accreditation gives our students the opportunity to be prepared and accepted to any higher learning institution of their choice.

RRCA admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities gener­ally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, and athletic and other school- administered programs.

 

NOTE: Member schools of ACSI make no distinction concerning an individual’s race or ethnic background because we acknowledge that there can be no preferential treatment with God (Romans 2:11).

ACSI as an organization serving Christian schools is dedicated to the establishment, philosophy, and promotion of fundamental Christian education around the world; and it neither supports nor endorses the World or National Council of Churches, or any world, national, regional or local organization which give Christian recognition to non-believers or advocates a multi-faith union.
