The Bible
The Bible is the inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word of God, verbally inspired in the original manuscripts, and is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. (2 Timothy
3:16; 2 Peter 1:21)

The Triune God
There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

The Person and Work of Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life, died a substitutionary and representative death on the cross, rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and now intercedes as our Great High Priest. He will return to rapture His Church and will later return in glory to reign over the earth. (John 1:1,14; Colossians 2:9; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Hebrews 7:25; Revelation 19:11-16)

Salvation
All mankind is sinful and spiritually dead. Regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for salvation, which is wholly by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is by Christ’s shed blood alone, apart from works. (Romans 3:23; John 3:3-5; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5)

The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit indwells, seals, and empowers every believer for godly living, guiding them into all truth and producing spiritual fruit. (John 14:26; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 5:22-23)

The Resurrection and Judgment
There will be a bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost: the saved unto eternal life and the lost unto eternal conscious punishment in the lake of fire. (John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:11-15)

The Church
The Church, the Body of Christ, began at Pentecost and is composed of all true believers. These believers are united by the indwelling Spirit into one body, with Christ as the Head. The local church exists to glorify God, equip believers, and proclaim the Gospel until Christ returns. (1 Corinthians 12:12-13; Ephesians 4:11-16)

Spiritual Gifts
Christ, the risen Head of the Church, has given spiritual gifts for ministry. Evangelists, pastors, and teachers are responsible for equipping believers for the work of the ministry. The sign gifts (tongues, prophecy, miracles) were temporary and have ceased. (Ephesians 4:11-12; 1 Corinthians 12:4-11; Hebrews 2:3-4)

Baptism and the Lord’s Supper
Baptism by immersion is an outward testimony of the believer’s union with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection, but does not contribute to salvation. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial feast, instituted by Christ for believers, to be observed weekly as an act of remembrance and fellowship. (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:41; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)

Eternal Security
Every true child of God possesses eternal life and, being justified, sanctified, and sealed with the Holy Spirit, is safe and secure for all eternity. (John 10:28-29; Romans 8:38-39; Ephesians 1:13-14)

The Return of Christ and the Kingdom
The personal and imminent return of Jesus Christ for His Church (the Rapture) will be followed by the Tribulation, Christ’s Second Coming to establish His Millennial Kingdom, and the final eternal state where God will be all in all. (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:1-6; 1 Corinthians 15:24-28)
