The Bible in its original text, is the divinely inspired and only infallible and authoritative written Word of God. A revelation from God to men, the inerrant rule of faith and conduct, and superior to conscience and reason, but not contrary to reason. God has revealed His existence and power in created order, and in the Person of His Son, the incarnate Word. God is a speaking God who, by His Spirit, has disclosed Himself in human words through scripture, the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, which are both a record and means of His saving work in the world. These writings alone are the inspired Word of God, which is without error in the original writings, complete in revelation of His will for salvation, sufficient for all that God requires us to believe, and final in its authority over every domain of knowledge to which it speaks. (I Thessalonians 2:13; Psalm 19:1-4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Matthew 4:4; 1 Peter 1:23-25; Hebrews 4:12; Psalm 119; Luke 24:27; I Corinthians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:19-21; Proverbs 30:6; John 1:14)

The one living and true God (Yahweh) has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent, self-revealed “I AM,” eternally co-existing as God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is an infinite, all-knowing Spirit, perfect in all His attributes. He is the immortal and eternal Creator of all things, both visible and invisible. He sovereignly rules over all things and is providentially at work redeeming and restoring His fallen creation. (Luke 3:22; 1 Peter 1:20-21; I Corinthians 2:13; II Corinthians 13:14; Genesis 1:1; Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 6:3; Isaiah 43:10, 11; Romans 1:19-20; Matthew 5:48; Matthew 28:19; John 10:30; Colossians 1:16; 1 Timothy 1:17; 1 John 4:8; 1 John 5:7; Revelation 4:11)

Jesus Christ is the unique Son of God, the Word made flesh, born of a virgin, representing deity and humanity in indivisible oneness and sinless life, so that He may reveal God through teaching, life and miracles and redeem man through His atoning death and bodily resurrection. Doing so as our representative and substitute. He did this so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. He has ascended to the Right Hand of God the Father, where He will return from to earth in Power and Glory to Rule. (Hebrews 1:1-2; John 1:1-4,14; John 14:6; Acts 4:12; I Corinthians 1:27-30; I Corinthians 15:3-5; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Colossians 1:19-22; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 Timothy 2:5; John 5:23; John 10:36-38; John 14:9-10; 1 Peter 1:18-19; Ephesians 2:13-18; Revelation 19; Revelation 20)

All who accept Christ as Lord has the indwelling of the Holy Spirit who acts as comforter, Guide, and Advocate of God’s people until the end of this present age. Salvation, attested in all scripture and secured by Jesus Christ, is applied to His people by the Holy Spirit. He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and by His powerful work, regenerates spiritually dead sinners. It is by the Holy Spirit one may live a godly life. In Him they are baptized into union with the Lord Jesus, such that they are justified before God by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. By the Holy Spirit, believers are renewed, sanctified, and adopted into God’s family. The Holy Spirit is Himself a down payment (promise of the Father) of our coming inheritance. This regeneration is essential for personal salvation. All believers should also expect and earnestly seek the gifts for the use in ministry come, which is sometimes distinct from and after the experience of new birth. (Galatians 5:16-23; Matthew 9:13; John 1:12-13; John 3:3-8; John 7:37-39; John 16:7-14; Ephesians 1:13-14; Ephesians 2:4-5; Titus 3:5; Acts 2:4; Acts 10:44-46; Acts 19:1-7; Romans 6:3-14; Romans 8:1-2; Romans 8:11; Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8; 1 Corinthians 12:1-31; Acts 2:38-39; Acts 11:14-16; Acts 15:7-9)
