…the Holy Scriptures, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, were originally and inerrantly communicated by God and therefore, are verbally inspired, and constitute the infallible and final authority in matters of faith, life and conduct.

 

…that there is one true God, subsisting in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, the same in essence and equal in wisdom, goodness, power and glory.

 

…in the essential deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in his inerrant teaching, in His substitutionary and expiatory death, by which we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins; in His bodily resurrection from among the dead, in His ascension into Heaven, in His priestly sessions, in his personal return at the end of the age to raise the dead, glorify the church, judge the earth and to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

 

…that man was created innocent and in the spiritual image of God; and that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that through his sin, his posterity thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.

 

…that salvation of lost and sinful man comes only through the regenerative work of the Holy Spirit, as man repents towards God, and exercises faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

…in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness and judgement; and fills and indwells the Christian to live soberly, righteously, and Godly in this present age.

 

…that the church on earth consists of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ who are dedicated to the worship and service of God through the proclamation of the word, the observance of the ordinances and the administration of discipline.

 

…in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust – the just to everlasting life and bliss and the unjust to everlasting shame and perdition.
