Mission

Contact: Siyi Tao, Email group officers

Mission
The purpose of this organization is to reach and disciple students (with a focus on international students) at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) with the love of Jesus Christ through hospitality, Bible studies, outings, events, etc. It serves under the umbrella of its parent organization, Asian Campus Church.

1. We believe that the Scriptures of both Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired by God
and inerrant in the original writing so as to be the final and sufficient rule of faith and practice.
• II Tim. 3:16-17, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" II Peter 1:21; Acts 1:16; I Cor. 2:12,13

2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy
Spirit.
• II Cor. 13:14
• Matthew 3:16-17, Mark 12:29, John 1:1-3, Heb. 1:1-3

3. We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and that
He is both perfect Man and perfect God.
• Matthew 1:18, Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:18, 22, 23; Luke 1:30-32, 35.

4. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned in Eden and thereby
incurred both physical and spiritual death, the latter being a separation from God; and that all
human beings inherit a sinful nature, being void of all spiritual life and subject to sin and Satan.
• Eph. 2:1-3, Gen. 1:26; Gen. 3; John 3:3, 6; Rom. 3:23; 5:12-19;

5. We believe that Christ died for our sins as a representative and substitutionary Sacrifice; and
that all who receive Him by faith receive salvation, there being no
other way.
• II Cor. 5:21; John 3:16; Rom. 5:6-9; Gal. 3:13; I Pet. 1:18-21; John 1:12; 5:24; Eph. 2:8, 9.

6. We believe that all who receive Christ as Savior are born again by the Holy Spirit, and receive an
assurance based solely upon the Word of God.
• Romans 8:33-39; John 3:1-8; 10:28, 29; Titus 3:5, 6; II Tim. 1:12.

7. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven,
and in His present ministry there as our High Priest and Advocate, whence He has sent the Holy
Spirit to indwell every believer.

This language cannot be modified
• Acts 1:3-9; John 7:38, 39; 20; I Cor. 3:16; 6:19; 15:3-20; John 14:16,17; Romans 8:9; Heb.
4:14-16.

8. We believe that the true, Universal Church consists of all who are born again by the Holy Spirit,
who unites us into one, regardless of tongue or nation; and that we should therefore meet
together as a local Church, keeping the unity of the Spirit in pure and peaceable love.
• Ephesians 4:1-6; Romans 12:5; I Cor. 12:12-27;

9. We believe that the Christian is called upon to live, not according to the old nature, but
according to the new nature born in him at his conversion, so that he should, by constant
submission to the will of God, always witness in word and deed to the truth of the Gospel.
• 1 Peter 1:14-16, Romans 8:12-14; Gal. 5:16-25; II Cor. 6:14; 7:1; Eph. 4:22-24; Col. 3:1-10,
17; Titus 2:10-14; I Pet. 1:14-16.

and then to establish His throne on the earth for a thousand years. J
• 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
• Revelation 20:6, John 14:1-3; Acts 1:10, 11; Heb. 9:28.

blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost.

Filipinos in Alliance

Mission

Contact: LJ Hanyzewski, Email group officers

Mission
The mission of Filipinos in Alliance is to promote Filipino-American social, cultural, academic, and charitable services to the University of Illinois at Chicago community and more specifically to establish programs and organization for the continued growth and development of the Filipino-American community. Filipinos in Alliance shall abide by its constitution and bylaws.

As more and more Filipino Americans grow up in the United States with limited understanding of their roots, Filipinos in Alliance strives to educate others in the hopes that one may gain a sense of identity by realizing their own heritage, as well as the hardships of their ancestors before them, all in a friendly environment with people like themselves. With that goal in mind, we believe in building a sense of belonging and unity with other Filipinos by working together through numerous events and activities to reach as many members in our community that we possibly could. We strongly believe that by creating a combined effort, and through dedicated teamwork, we can make a difference – as Filipinos in Alliance.
