- We believe in the infallible, verbal inspiration of the whole Bible and that the Bible is the all-sufficient rule of faith and practice (Psalm 119:160; 2 Tim. 3:16-17).

-We believe in the personal triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, equal in divine perfection (Matt 28:19).

- We believe in the Genesis account of Creation (Gen. 1:2).

- We believe that Satan is a fallen angel, the archenemy of God and man, the unholy god of this world, and that his destiny is the eternal lake of fire (Isa. 14:12-15; Ezek. 28:11-19; Matt. 25:41; 2 Cor. 4:4; Eph. 6:10-17; Rev. 20:10).

- We believe in the virgin birth and sinless humanity of Jesus Christ (Matt. 1:18-20; 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Peter 2:22).

- We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ (John 10:30; John 1:1 & 14; 2 Cor. 5:19).

- We believe the Holy Spirit is the divine Administrator for Jesus Christ in His churches (Luke 24:49; John 14:16-17; Acts 1:4-5 & 8; Acts 2:1-4).

- We believe that Man was created in the image of God and lived in innocency until he fell by voluntary transgression from his sinless state, the result being that all mankind are sinners (Gen. 1:26; Gen. 3:6-24; Rom. 5:12 & 19).

- We believe that the suffering and death of Jesus Christ was substitutionary for all mankind and is efficacious only to those who believe (Isa. 53:6; Heb. 2:9; 1 Peter 2:24 & 3:18; 2 Peter 3:9; 1 John 2:2).

- We believe in the bodily resurrection and ascension of Christ and the bodily resurrection of His saints (Matt. 28:1-7; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Cor. 15:42-58; 1 Thess. 4:13-18).

- We believe in the premillennial, personal, bodily return of Christ as the crowning event of the Gentile age. This event will include the resurrection of the righteous to eternal heaven, and the Millennium will be followed by the resurrection of the unrighteous unto eternal punishment in the lake of fire and that the righteous shall enter into the heaven age (John 14:1-6' 1 Thess. 4:13-18; 2 Thess. 2:8; Rev. 19, 20:4-8 & 11-15, 21:8).

- We believe that the depraved sinner is saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, this requires turning towards God and placing faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 13:3-5; John 3:16-18; Acts 20:21; Rom. 6:23; Eph. 2:8-9), and that the Holy Spirit convicts sinners, regenerates, seals, secures and indwells every believer (John 3:6, 16:8-9; Rom. 8:9-11; 1 Cor. 6:19-20; Eph. 4:30; Titus 3:5).

- We believe that all who trust Jesus Christ for salvation are eternally secure in Him and shall not perish (John 3:36, 5:24 & 10:27-30; Rom. 8:35-39; Heb. 10:39; 1 Peter 1:5).

- We believe that God deals with believers as His children, that He chastises the disobedient and that He rewards the obedient (Matt. 16:27 & 25:14-23; John 1:12; Heb. 12:5-11; 2 John 8; Rev. 22:12).
