JUC enjoys a unique position in the academic Christian community worldwide. Over its 65 years of existence, the university has served a wide variety of Protestant Christian schools and students from diverse denominational backgrounds within and outside our network of consortium schools.

The board of directors, administration, and core teaching faculty of Jerusalem University College maintain an evangelical persuasion that focuses on the centrality of Christ and the authority of Scripture. Our commitment is to fulfill our educational mission within the framework of the evangelical Christian thought represented by the members of our Consortium of Associated Schools.

As a member of the National Association of Evangelicals in the United States, JUC's beliefs align with their statement of faith:

1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
2. We believe that there is one God eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.
4. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose indwelling enables the Christian to live a godly life.
6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
