WE BELIEVE:
The Holy Scriptures contain all things necessary to salvation; so that whatsoever is not read therein, nor may be proved thereby, is not to be required of any man, that it should be believed as an article of faith, or be thought requisite or necessary to salvation. We do understand the books of the Old and New Testaments to constitute the Holy Scriptures. These Scriptures we hold to be the inspired and infallibly-written Word of God, fully inerrant in their original manuscripts and superior to all human authority.
That there is one God, eternally self-existent, and in the Unity of this Godhead there are three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, very God and very man; and the only and sufficient mediator between God and man, who by the sacrifice of Himself provides atonement for the whole human race, and that whosoever believeth in Him shall be saved.
That man was created in the image of God, but through transgression fell from that holy state, incurred spiritual death, became depraved, and is inclined to do evil and that continually. But by the grace of God working in man and with man, he may by faith in the merit of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be justified and regenerated in nature, so that he is delivered from the power of sin and thus through the grace of God enabled to love and serve Him with the will and affections of the heart. All who reject the grace of God are lost.
That the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person, the Executive of the Godhead, whose mission is to reveal Christ to man and to administer the Estate of Grace to all who truly believe; and that His special mission to the believer is to cleanse the heart from all sin, whether inherited or acquired, thus enabling him to love God with all his heart and his neighbor as himself.
That Jesus Christ rose from the dead, appeared on earth in a glorified bodily form; that He ascended to the right hand of God to occupy the Mediatorial Throne; that He will return to earth at God's appointed time; and that the blessed hope of His return is a powerful incentive to holy living and to world evangelism. That there is a conscious existence after death, everlasting happiness for the saved, and everlasting woe for the lost.
