what’s the point?
The NICHE Board believes that even more important than quality academics is eternal salva-
tion from the penalty and power of sin. While we come from different church backgrounds,
we, with all true Christians, agree on the fundamentals of salvation:
1. All people are in rebellion against the God who created them and deserve eternal
punishment for that rebellion (sin).
2. God, in love, sent His sinless Son, Jesus Christ, who died on the cross as payment
for the sins of sinful humanity, rising again from the dead.
3. Jesus’ death and resurrection provide forgiveness of all sin and reconciliation with
God to any who repent and believe in Him.
4. Salvation cannot be earned by any act on our part; it must be received as a free
gift by faith in Jesus Christ alone.
If you’d like to talk more with someone about your relationship with Jesus Christ, we invite
you to write for a confidential and biblical response.
