- The Old and New Testaments are the Inspired Word of God. In these Testaments we find the complete revelation of God’s will for the salvation of men, and the Divine and final authority of all Christian faith and life.
- In one God, Creator of all things, who is infinitely perfect and eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- That Jesus Christ is true God and true man. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and is now at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest and Advocate.
- That man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost. Only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained. The shed blood of Jesus Christ and His resurrection provide the only grounds for justification and salvation.
- The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ. During this age He indwells, guides, instructs, and empowers the believers for godly living and service.
- Every born again, spirit-filled believer should maintain a consistent prayer life. This should be true both in praying with the understanding and in praying in the Spirit.
- That without faith it is impossible to please God. The atonement provides not only salvation for the believer, but healing as well. We are redeemed from the curse of the law which is poverty, sickness and death. Our lives will be successful and healthy if we walk in the light of this redemption with faith in God’s Word.
- The true church is composed of all those who are born again. Through this new birth we are united together in the body of Christ. Jesus Christ is the Lord and Head of the Church. Every local church has the right under Christ to decide and govern its own affairs.
- In the personal, pre-millennial and imminent coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The “Blessed Hope” has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer.
