Philosophy ( 교육철학 ) recognizes the primacy of the spiritual truth revealed in the Bible and incarnate in Jesus Christ, and acknowledges that all truth is of God. All truth finds its unity in God. GMU recognizes the role of the Holy Spirit in interpreting God s truth in accordance with the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, who instructed His disciples, when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all truth (John 16:13). GMU recognizes that Father God has shown humankind truth through Christ in nature, history, and in Scripture. The Bible, as the authoritative Word of God, is central in the quest for knowledge. Its principles and precepts are integrated throughout GMU s curriculum and are foundational in the institution s basic philosophy of education. Philosophy ( 교육철학 ) 그레이스미션대학교는성경에계시된영적진리의탁월성과예수그리스도의성육신을인정하며, 모든진리는하나님의진리라는사실에동의한다. 모든진리는하나님안에서일치됨을발견한다. 그레이스미션대학교는 진리의성령이오시면그분이너희를모든진리가운데로인도하실것이다 ( 요 16:13) 라고제자들을가르치신주예수그리스도의말씀과일치되게끔하나님의진리를해석하는성령의역할을인정한다. 그레이스미션대학교는성부하나님께서자연과역사와그리고성경속에서예수그리스도를통하여진리를나타내셨음을인정한다. 하나님의권위있는말씀으로서성경은지식탐구의중심이된다. 성경의원리들과관점들은그레이스미션대학교의커리큘럼을통하여통합되며, 그원리와관점들은본대학의교육철학의기본토대가된다.

We believe that He is an infinite God and a true man who was incarnated by the Holy Spirit through Virgin Mary. He, being righteous, is able to bring sinners to righteousness through His sacred blood which was shed on the cross. We believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead according to Scripture, ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God as our high priest and the king of the universe.

Article 4 Holy Bible We accept the Holy Scriptures, the Old and New Testaments, as inspired by God. Scripture is the Word of God which is accurate and inerrant. The purpose of this revelation is to show God s concern for the salvation of all humans. We believe the Holy Scriptures to be the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine, and Christian conduct.

Therefore, humans which were set apart from God, carry the characteristics of original sin from birth.
