The scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments
are the verbally inspired word of GOD, and completely inerrant in the
original writings, and of supreme and final authority in faith and
life.
- The triune GOD is eternally existing in three
persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:
- GOD the Father is Almighty and eternal,
creator of all things, both visible and invisible.
- The lord Jesus Christ is the Son of GOD, born
of the Virgin Mary, fully GOD and Fully man, suffered and died on the
cross for our sins, was buried, rose bodily from the dead, appeared to
men, ascended into heaven, who now sits on the right hand of the Father
and intercedes for us, and who is coming again with great power and
glory
- The Holy Spirit is the Comforter, who inspired
the prophets and apostles of old; who indwells, empowers and
distributes spiritual gifts to be exercised by the believers for
Spiritual edification of the church; and who convicts the world
concerning sin, righteousness, and judgment
- The ordinance of water baptism should be
observed
by all who have repented and have truly in their hearts believed in
Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
- The Lord's supper, consisting of the elements
of
bread and wine, symbolic of our sharing in His body and blood as a
memorial of His suffering and death and a prophecy of His second
coming.
