1. Absolute Authority of the Holy Bible

We believe in the absolute authority and accuracy of the Holy Bible, both the Old and New Testaments; its verbal inspiration in the original manuscripts and its all-sufficiency as the Christian’s rule of faith and practice. (II Timothy 3:16, II Peter 1:19-21; and Proverbs 30:5, 6)

 

2. There Is But One God

We believe that there is but one God, the Creator, Preserver and Ruler of all things, Who is perfect in holiness and in love, infinite in wisdom and measureless in power, and Who reveals Himself to us as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deut. 6:4; Neh. 9:6, II Cor. 13:14; I Chr. 29:11, 12; I John 4:8; John 10:30; Matthew 28:19; and I Peter 1:15,16 )

 

3. Jesus Christ is the Son of God

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal and only begotten Son of God, conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, and that He is true God and true man, and is the only and sufficient mediator between God and man. (Matt. 1:20; Luke 1:35; John 1: 1,2,14; John 12:45; John 14:9; and 1 Timothy 2:5 )

 

4. The Holy Spirit Completes the Trinity

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, whose ministry is to convict the world of sin and of righteousness and of judgment; to regenerate the unbelieving; and to seal, sanctify, teach and comfort those who have believed in Jesus Christ. (John 16:8-11; 3:3,6,7; 14:26; Eph. 1:13; and II Thessalonians 2:13)
