That
there is only one God, Who has revealed Himself in three Persons: the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, the Savior and Lord
of
this World, and the Holy Spirit.
In the absolute
Lordship and deity of Christ including His preexistence, His
virgin birth, His sinless life, His atoning death, His bodily
resurrection, and His eventual return to the earth in glory
and power to establish His eternal kingdom.
In the inerrancy:
authority, reliability, and Divine inspiration of the Holy
Bible.
That nothing replace
the importance of the local church in the program of God. Each
local church should be under the authority of the Word. The
oversight of the Holy Spirit, and should determine its own
character and role in obedience to the Word of God.
That the great tasks
of the Church are worldwide evangelism and equipping the
saints.
That entrance into
the Church is through the new birth which is brought about by
genuine repentance of sin and confession of faith in Christ as
Lord and Savior.
That membership in
the Church is signified by baptism and the joyful
participation in its worship, fellowship, sacrament, witness,
and acceptance of its discipline.
That the ministry of
the Holy Spirit is an essential component of effective
Christian life and witness.
That the Church
cannot fulfill its mission apart from the five ascension gift
ministries that Christ has sent into the world: Apostles,
Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers. We accept that it
is part of our task to recognize those people and to assist in
equipping them to fulfill their ministry.
That Christ purchased
bodily healing from every believer at Calvary and this healing
should be appropriated by faith.
In the reality of
Satan and the kingdom of darkness over which he reigns and of
the absolute triumphs of Christ over the devil and all his
words.
In the death,
resurrection, and ascension of Christ as witnessed by the
scriptures.
That victorious
Christian life is built upon a proper understanding of the
Bible and upon the exercise of the spiritual authority imputed
to the believer by the gift of righteousness.
In
the resurrection of the deal at Christ’s return, in the
certainty of god’s judgment, and in the inescapable result of
the judgment foretold in the scriptures for both the just and
the unjust.
