We believe that operating any organization based on its beliefs is extremely important, as these beliefs shape its identity, mission, and values. The beliefs below provide integrity and consistency in the actions of the Christian publishing house "Journey", helping us make decisions that are consistent with our principles and contribute to the achievement of long-term goals. We believe that when we act in accordance with our beliefs, this not only strengthens trust among employees, partners, and users, but also creates a solid foundation for development and success in the eyes of our Lord.<\/p>\n
1. We believe in the inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of the Holy Scriptures. This means that the Bible is the ultimate authority in matters of faith and practice, both in the life of each individual believer and in the life of local churches, denominations, and Christian organizations.<\/p>\n
2. We are convinced that Holy Scripture must be interpreted in accordance with the original intent of its Author(s), through the study of the historical context, the grammatical features of the text, and also taking into account the fact of progressive revelation.<\/p>\n
3. We are convinced that salvation is a sovereign act of God towards the spiritually dead sinner, who by grace alone through faith in Christ receives salvation at the moment of his justification.<\/p>\n
4. We are convinced that all who have been justified by God will not perish, but will be preserved by God until the day of their glorification. We are convinced that saved people are called to a holy life in the power of the Spirit and to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
5. We believe that the local church is a priority in the life and ministry of every believer. Membership and active participation in the life of the church is an essential means of spiritual growth for Christians.<\/p>\n
6. We believe that pastoral ministry is a necessary factor used by God in the creation of His church. The ministry of pastoring a church should be carried out by trained men of God who meet the biblical requirements and practice expository preaching and practical spiritual care. We believe that plural leadership most closely corresponds to the biblical model of church government.<\/p>\n
7. We are convinced that a consistent, explanatory preaching of the whole will of God best corresponds to the truths of the inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Holy Scripture.<\/p>\n
8. We are convinced that biblical counseling, that is, the application of biblical teaching to specific life situations and spiritual issues, is based on the Holy Scriptures, which are an effective and sufficient means of overcoming sin and growing in righteousness, and is not guided by the achievements of secular anthropology, sociology, and psychology, although it does not ignore them completely, subordinating all views to the authority of God's Word.<\/p>\n
9. We are convinced that a biblical approach to evangelism excludes psychological manipulation, emotional pressure, and other pragmatic means practiced contrary to biblical teaching.<\/p>\n
10. We believe that the true foundation for unity and cooperation among ministers in the church of God is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This cooperation should promote biblical influence and personal growth for the glory of God in this world.<\/p>\n
