Statement of Faith

Manhattan Christian College pleads for the unity of all believers on the common ground of commitment and obedience to the lordship of Christ. Believing that creeds of men, however correct, perpetuate sectarianism and create division within the church when made tests of fellowship, we have no creed except faith in Jesus as the Christ, God’s Son and humankind’s Savior.

It is our desire to call all people of all nations to faith and obedience to Him as revealed in scripture. When asked, “What do you believe?”, it is tempting to hand one the Bible and suggest, “This is what we believe.” However, for those not familiar with Manhattan Christian College, it may be helpful to identify foundational doctrines taught in our classes based on our understanding of the Scriptures.

WHAT
DO YOU
BELIEVE?

1. We believe that there is one God, creator of the universe, eternally existing in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that we are called to live to the praise of His glory.

2. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative word of God.

3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and visible return in power and glory.

4. We believe the only terms of salvation that we may proclaim are those expressed in the New Testament: faith, repentance, confession of faith in Jesus Christ, and baptism by immersion in water for the remission of past sins and for the promised presence of the Holy Spirit.

5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by whom the church is empowered to carry out Christ’s Great Commission.

6. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

TRANSCRIPT REQUEST

Standard processing for transcripts is one to three business days unless expedited service is requested. Additional processing time could result from data mismatches and/or during peak periods, such as the end of term or commencement preparation (April and May). Transcript orders will not be processed when the Office of the Registrar is closed.

Only current or former students may order a transcript. Phone or email general requests for transcripts cannot be fulfilled. Third party inquiries should be made to the Office of the Registrar. Since the transcript contains confidential information, it cannot be released to anyone other than the student without written permission unless it is mailed directly to another university/institution from the Office of the Registrar.

Unofficial transcripts are available in the student’s Empower account.

Transcripts are ordered online through the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) using any credit/debit card. The credit/debit card will only be charged after the order has been completed. Students can order as many transcripts in a single session as needed. A processing and delivery fee will be charged per recipient. The NSC will provide email and/or text notifications for every step of the process, including delivery and order tracking.
