1. That All Scripture is given by inspiration of GOD� by which we understand the whole book called The Bible/Word of GOD; that its teaching and authority is absolute, supreme and final. That the Holy Spirit guided holy men of old in all that they wrote. 2 Timothy 3:16; Deuteronomy 4:2; 2 Peter 1:21
2. The GODHEAD eternally exists in three persons of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. These three combine into one GOD, having the same nature, attributes and perfection.
Romans 1:20; Matthew 28:19; Deuteronomy 4:35; John 17:5
3. The Personality and Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, begotten of the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, truly GOD and truly man. John 1:1; 1;14;10:30; Matthew 1:20; Luke 1:30,31; Philippians 2:5-7; 1 Timothy 3:16; Colossians 1:19
4. The Personality and Deity of the Holy Ghost, the source and power of all acceptable worship and service. The Holy Ghost is the infallible interpreter of the infallible Word that indwells every true believer and is ever present to testify of Christ, seeking to occupy us with HIM and not with ourselves or our experiences. John 15:26; Acts 5:3,4; 1:8; Romans 8:9,26,27; 1 Corinthians 2:12,14;3:16; 12:13; John 16:13,14
5. Man was created in the image of GOD, after HIS likeness, as stated in the Word of GOD, but the whole human race fell in the fall of the first Adam. Not only was Adams moral nature grievously injured by the fall but he totally lost all spiritual life, becoming dead in trespasses and sins, and subject to the power of the devil. �The carnal mind is enmity against GOD; for it is not subject to the Law of GOD, neither indeed can be. So then, they that are in the flesh cannot please GOD�. Romans 8:7,8
Therefore, he cannot see nor enter the kingdom of GOD until he is born again by the Holy Ghost. That no degree of reformation however great, no attainment in morality however high, no culture however attractive, no humanitarian and philanthropic schemes and societies however useful, no baptism or other ordinance however administered, can help the sinner to take even one step toward Heaven; but a new nature imparted from above, a new life implanted by the Holy Ghost through the Word is absolutely essential to salvation. Genesis 1:26,27; Romans 5:12; Ephesians 2:1-3; John 3:3,6,7; Titus 3:5
