There is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
(Matthew 3:16, 17; John 14:9,19)
God is the Creator of mankind and all things.
(Genesis 1:1; Acts 17:24-28; Colossians 1:16,17)
The Holy Spirit dwells within every disciple.
(John 16:5-15)
Jesus Christ is God’s own unique Son and Savior of the World.
(John 3:16; Matthew 1:18)
The Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for all matters on faith.
(Romans 15:4; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 3:16)
Mankind willfully sinned, and as a result, is lost and without hope apart from Christ.
(Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23; 1 John 1:7)
Salvation (the forgiveness of sins) comes by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ.
(Matthew 26:28; Romans 5:8-11; Ephesians 2:8,9)
The church is the body and bride of Christ, founded on the day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere.
(Matthew 16:13-18, Acts 2:14-47)
Death seals the eternal destiny of each person. The saved will inherit eternal life; the unsaved, eternal separation from God.
(Romans 8:10,11; Daniel 12:2: John 6:47)
The Bible teaches that one receives salvation by putting faith in Christ, repenting of sin, and confessing Christ. The Bible then commands that every believer in Christ be baptized.
(Luke 24:45-47; Acts 2:38; Romans 6:1-7; 2 Peter 3:9)
The process of salvation is not something which can be purchased or earned. It is a free gift from God provided by Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross and is received through faith. It is available to everyone who accepts Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. Faith in Christ is then expressed through repentance of sin and then baptism.
