GOD, HIS WORD AND HIS SON 1. That the Holy Bible, consisting of 39 books of the Old Testament and 27 books of the New Testament, is the inspired Word of God. We take the Bible as final authority in all matters concerning Christian conduct and works. 2. That the Godhead consists of three separate distinct and recognizable personalities and qualities, perfectly united in one: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. 3. The virgin birth of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, His crucifixion, death, burial and bodily resurrection. MAN, HIS FALL and HIS RESTORATION 1. The total depravity sinfulness and guilt of all men since the fall, rendering them subject to God’s wrath and condemnation. 2. That repentance is a complete turning away from all sins and its deceitful pleasures and that it is required from every sincere believer before he/she can truly and effectively believe in Jesus with saving faith. 3. That justification (or Regeneration) is the act of God’s grace whereby one receives forgiveness and remission of sins and is counted righteous before God, through faith in the atoning blood of Jesus, standing before God as though he had never sinned. 4. That restitution is a vital part of true repentance so as to have a conscience void of offence towards God and man. 5. That Sanctification which is a lifelong process of separation, cleansing and consecration is the will of God for all believers. 6. That Redemption from the curse of the Law. Healing of sickness and disease as well as continued Health are provided for all people through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ. IDENTIFICATION WITH CHRIST THE SON OF GOD 1. That the Baptism in the Holy Ghost is the enduement of power from on high upon the sanctified believer. It is “the promise of the Father” and when one receives this “gift of the Holy Ghost”, it is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking a language unlearned previously, referred to as speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. 2. That Water Baptism is essential to our obedience after reconciliation with God. Water Baptism is one immersion “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” as Jesus commanded. 3. That the Lord’s Supper was constituted by Jesus Christ so that all believers (all members of the family of God) might partake thereof regularly, to “shew the Lord’s death till He come” 4. That Personal Evangelism is a God-given and God-ordained ministry for every believer. Jesus commanded and God requires every believer to be a compassionate and fruitful soul winner, bringing others to Christ. 5. That Christian Marriage is a union between a man and a woman and is binding for life. Monogamy in the uniform teaching of the bible THE END OF THIS PRESENT WORLD AND THE BEGINNING OF THE NEW WORLD 1. That the Rapture (the first phase or stage of the SECOND COMING OF CHRIST) is the catching away from the earth of all living saints, and all who died in the Lord. The Rapture will take place before the Great Tribulation and can happen any time from now. 2. That the Resurrection of the dead is taught in the Bible as clearly as the immortality of the soul. Every individual who has ever lived will be resurrected, some to honor and glory and others to everlasting shame and contempt. 3. That the Great Tribulation will occur after the Rapture and will be a time of terrible suffering on earth. During this time, the Antichrist will take possession of this world for a reign of terror. He will not be a system or organization but a person – a supernatural diabolical being, in the form of a man who will blaspheme and proclaim himself to be God. 4. The Second Coming of Christ will be just as literal and visible as His going away, and He is coming to execute judgment upon the ungodly. He will also, then, set up His Kingdom and reign on this present earth for a thousand years. 5. That Christ’s Millennial Reign is the 1000 years’ literal reign of Jesus on earth, which will be ushered in by the coming of Jesus back to earth with ten thousands of His saints. During this time the devil will be bound. It will be a reign of peace and blessing. 6. That the Great White Throne Judgment is when God finally judges all the living and the dead small and great who have ever lived on the face of the earth, according to their works. This is after the Millennium. At this time, the final Judgment known as the Great White Throne Judgment will be held. All those from all ages, who have not yet been judged (believers” judgment, as sinners was accomplished by Christ on the cross will stand before God at this time. The devil and his angels are judged at this time also and cast to the lake of fire forever. 7. That the New Heaven and the New Earth “wherein dwelleth righteousness” will be made by God and the redeemed shall dwell with God forever. This present earth, which has been polluted by sin, will pass away after the Great White Throne Judgment.( 8. That Hell-fire is a place of everlasting punishment where sinners (all who do not have their names in the book of life) will suffer torments forever and ever. It was prepared for the devil and his angels but God has decreed that the wicked and those who forgets Him and reject Christ will also be cast there because of their sin and neglect of His salvation.
