...the Son, who is the Word of the Father, took man's nature in the womb of the blessed virgin, so God and man were joined in one Person. Christ was crucified, died, and was buried to reconcile the Father to us and to make atonement for our guilt and original sin.
...Christ arose from the dead and ascended into heaven. He will return to judge all mankind at the last day.
...the Holy Ghost is of one substance, majesty and glory with the Father and the Son.
...in the verbal and plenary inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, known as the Bible, which is God's Word and the full and complete revelation of the plan and history of redemption.
...eternal life with God in heaven is a portion of the reward of the finally righteous; and everlasting banishment from the presence of the Lord and unending torture in hell are the wages of the persistently wicked.
...Jesus Christ shed His blood for the remission of past sins, the regeneration of penitent sinners, and salvation from sin and sinning.
...in the scriptural doctrine of justification by faith alone.
...Jesus Christ shed His blood for the cleansing of the justified believer from all indwelling sin and its pollution.
...in sanctification. While sanctification is initiated in regeneration and consummated in glorification, it includes a definite, instantaneous work of grace achieved by faith subsequent to regeneration. Sanctification delivers from the power and dominion of sin, and is followed by lifelong growth in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
...the Pentecostal baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire is obtainable by a definite act of appropriating faith. The initial evidence of the reception of this experience is speaking with other tongues as the Holy Spirit gives utterance.
...in divine healing as in the atonement.
...in the imminent, personal, pre-millennial second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
...it is the responsibility of every believer to dedicate his life to carrying out the work of the Great commission.
