I.
The sixty-six books of the Bible were inspired of God, and
are free from error. They constitute the only
infallible Word of God for our faith and
practice.
II. There is one God,
the Creator and Preserver of all things, infinite in being
and perfection. He exists eternally in three Persons: the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, who are of one
substance and equal in power and glory.
III. God created Adam
and Eve in his own image. By disobedience, they fell from
their sinless state through the temptation by Satan. This
fall plunged humanity into a state of sin and spiritual
death, and brought upon the entire race the sentence of
eternal death. From this condition we can be saved only by
the grace of God, through faith, on the basis of the work of
Christ, and by the power of the Holy
Spirit.
IV. The eternally
pre-existent Son became incarnate without human father, by
being born of the Virgin Mary. Thus, in the Lord Jesus
Christ, divine and human natures were united in one Person,
both natures being whole, perfect, and distinct. To effect
salvation, he lived a sinless life and died on the cross as
the sinner's substitute, shedding his blood for the
remission of sins. On the third day he rose from the dead in
the body which had been laid in the tomb. He ascended to the
right hand of the Father, where he performs the ministry of
intercession. He shall come again, personally and visibly,
to complete his saving work and to consummate the eternal
plan of God.
V. The Holy Spirit is
the third Person of the Triune God. He applies to man the
work of Christ. By justification and adoption we are given a
right standing before God; by regeneration, sanctification,
and glorification our nature is renewed.
VI. Salvation
takes place when we have turned to God in repentant faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ, we are accountable to God for living
a life separated from sin and characterized by the fruit of
the Spirit. It is our responsibility to contribute by word
and deed to the universal spread of the Gospel.

VII. At the end of the
age, the bodies of the dead shall be raised. The righteous
shall enter into full possession of eternal bliss in the
presence of God, and the wicked shall be condemned to
eternal death.
