The two principal reasons to educate, or acquire knowledge is to better equip oneself to serve God and your Neighbor. While trying to secure a prosperous and happy life is reasonable, it would be built on the foundations of selfishness if the above two principals are left off. Richard Cross
Note: Young men, equip yourselves as you like, physically,
socially, intellectually; get on in business, and rise in the world to the full
extent of your ambition; realize the highest culture and proficiency to which
you can aspire-I say to you deliberately, in His name whose servant I am, that
unless your heart is dominated by "the fear of God," and your life
ruled by the desire to "keep His commandments," there is still about
you a radical, a deplorable, fatal defect.

We believe, that the educational systems, both Public (state), and Private (Religious & Non Religious), have largely forgotten these two fundamental principals. We have no axe to grind with Christian schools, and we do not desire to be in competition with them. But we believe that first and formost, children s hould be educated by their parents, or guadians, at home. We realize that it some cases due to reasons beyond the parents control they cannot school at home, but for the majority of the children, private/home schooling is the best way. Please use the educational materials, tests, and resources of this site to secure information and materials that would be most helpful to you. We invite you to reason and research with us for the glory of God and the furtherance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
"There is no doctrine of the Bible, which can be safely, thoroughly, or truly learned without the authoritative Teacher. Tell me not of systems of divinity, of schemes of theology, of infallible commentators, of the most learned people, of the most arrogant doctors, but tell me of the great Teacher who will instruct the sons of God and make us wise to understand all things. The Holy Ghost is the Teacher. It matters not what this or that man says. I rest on no man's boasting authority, nor should you. You are not to be carried away by the craftiness of men or a sleight of words. The Holy Ghost is resting in the hearts of His children.."
Charles Spurgeon.
