that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are verbally inspired of God and are without error as originally written, and that they are the authoritative Word of God and the only infallible rule of faith and conduct for the Christian.
that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, as a vicarious, substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.
in one God, eternally existing in three persons:Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and we believe that these three are co-eternal and of equal dignity and power.
in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit indwelling all believers and thus enabling and empowering the life and ministry of the Christian.
in the deity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless, perfect life; His vicarious and substitutionary death through the shedding of His blood on the Cross of Calvary; His bodily resurrection for our justification; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; his present ministry as High Priest and Advocate; His personal and imminent return, “Our blessed hope”; and we believe that all things shall finally be subjected to him.
in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost.
that man was created by and for God; that by disobeying God, he (every person) became a sinner and thereby incurred spiritual death, which is separation from God, and physical death as a consequence; and that all the human race are born in sin and are sinners by nature and practice.
that the church is an elect company of believers and that it is the body of Christ, having been formed by the work of the Holy Spirit in all those who trust Christ as their Savior.
in view of Christ’s last command known as the Great Commission and the lost condition of all those who fail to accept the gospel, that it is our mission to preach the gospel to the whole world.
