1. The Godhead
is triune: one God, three Persons—God the Father, God the Son, and God
the Holy Spirit.
2. All mankind are sinners, inherently from Adam and individually (by
choice) and are therefore subject to God’s wrath and condemnation.
3. Freedom from the penalty and power of sin is available to man only
through the sacrificial death and shed blood of Jesus Christ, and His
complete and bodily Resurrection from the dead.
4. The Holy Spirit enables the sinner to repent and believe in Jesus
Christ.
5. The Holy Spirit lives and works in each believer to produce the
fruits of righteousness.
6. Salvation is a gift received by faith alone in Christ alone and
expressed in the individual’s repentance, recognition of the death of
Christ as full payment for sin, and acceptance of the risen Christ as
Savior, Lord and God.
7. All things necessary for our salvation are either expressly set down
in Scripture or may be deduced by good and necessary consequence from
Scripture.
8. Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin
Mary.
9. Jesus Christ rose bodily from the dead, ascended to Heaven, and is
currently seated at the right hand of God the Father, and shall return
in person to this Earth as Judge of the living and the dead.
10. Satan is the personal spiritual adversary of both God and man.
11. Those who do not believe in Christ are subject to everlasting
conscious punishment, but believers enjoy eternal life with God.
12. The only legitimate marriage is the joining of one man and one
woman. God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in
outside of marriage. Any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality,
incest, fornication, adultery, pornography, etc., are sinful perversions
of God’s gift of sex.
