- the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative Word of God
(II Tim. 3:16).
- there is one God, eternally existent in three personalities: Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit (I John 5:4-6).
- in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life,
His miracles, His substitutional and atoning death through His shed blood,
His bodily resurrectuon, His ascension to the right hand of the Father,
and His personal return in power and glory (I Cor. 15:3; I Peter 2:23-24;
John 3:16).
- in the reality of Satan and his present control over unregenerate man
(II Cor. 4:4; I Peter 5:8).
- for salvation of lost and sinful man, rebirth by the Holy Spirit is
absolutely essential (Ron. 3:21-30; Gal. 4:4-7).
- the full consummation of the Baptism of believers in the Holy Ghost is
evidenced by the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues
as the Spirit gives utterance, and by the subsequent manifestation of
spiritual power in public service (Acts 1:8, 2:4, 2:42-43, 10:44-46;
Acts 19:2, 6; Matt. 3:11).
- baptism in water is by immersion and is for believers only. The
ordinance is a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ
in His death, burial and resurrection. We baptize everyone in the
Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holly Spirit, by the authority
of the Name of Jesus (Matt. 28:19; Acts 2:38; Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12;
Acts 8:36-39).
- in the resurrection of both the saved and lost; those who are saved
unto the resurrection of life; and those who are lost unto damnation
(John 5:24, 29).
- deliverance from sickness is provided for in the atonement, and is the
privilege of all believers (Isaiah 53:4; Matt. 8:16-17; Mark 16:18).
- in the eminent return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
(I Thess. 4:18; Rev. 21:20).
