reflected in the following, clear statements:
The plenary, verbal inspiration of the 66 books of
the Bible, equally in all parts and without error in its origin.
The Eternal Godhead who has revealed Himself as ONE
God existing in THREE persons, Father, Son, Holy Spirit; distinguishable
but indivisible.
The creation, test and fall orman as recorded in
Genesis;, his total spiritual depravity and inability to attain to
Divine righteousness.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of men, conceived
of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, very God and very man.
The salvation of sinners by grace, through repentance
and faith in the perfect and sufficient work of the cross of Calvary by
which we obtain remission of sins.

the Eternal Godhead in order to fulfill the command of Christ.

subsequent to salvation, with the scriptural evidence; namely, speaking
in other tongues as the spirit gives utterance.

described in Eph. 4: 11-16.
The operation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit as
enumerated in I Cor.12: 14, as manifested in the Early Church.

world and perfecting of holiness in the fear of God as an expression of
Christian faith.
The healing of the body by Divine power, or Divine
healing in its varied aspects as practiced in the Early Church.
The Table of the Lord, commonly called Communion or
the Lord's Supper for believers.
Eternal life for believers and eternal punishment for
unbelievers.
The reality and personality of Satan and the eternal
judgment of Satan and his angels.
Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again
the third day, and personally appeared to His disciples.
