We believe:

The Holy Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative word of God; and

There is but one God, eternally existent and manifest in the triune Godhead, three persons co-equal in power and purpose: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit; and

In the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His incarnation, earthly ministry, death on the cross, burial and bodily resurrection; and

In the ascension of the Lord Jesus Christ to the right hand of the Father and His exaltation; and

In the blessed hope of the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to receive unto Himself His blood bought church to be with Him forever; and

That the only means by which mankind is cleansed from sin is with repentance and by faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ for remission of sin; and Salvation is received by faith in the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ.

That regeneration of the human spirit by the Holy Spirit is absolute and essential for personal salvation; and

That baptism in the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for this promise of the Father; and

In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a holy life. (John 14:26; John 16:8-13)

That Christian baptism is an ordinance of God, and is the immersion in water of a believer, into the name of the Father and Son and Holy Spirit; to show forth, in a

solemn and beautiful emblem, our faith in the crucified, buried, and risen savior, with its effect in our death to sin and resurrection to a new life; that it is prerequisite to the privileges of a church relation; and

The observance of the Lord's Supper; and

That under the direction of the Holy Spirit, the five-fold ministries which include pastors, preachers, teachers, evangelists, and prophets, are in full operation in the world today;
