THE SCRIPTURES: The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God’s revelation of Himself to men. It is a perfect treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without error.

GOD: There is one and only one living God…The Eternal God reveals Himself to us as Father, Son and Holy Ghost, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.

God the Father: God as Father reigns as providential care over His universe, His creatures, and the flow of the stream of human history according to the purpose of His grace…God the Father is truth to those who become children of God through faith in Jesus Christ.

God the Son: Christ is the eternal Son of God. In His incarnation as Jesus Christ, He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary…He honored the divine law by His personal obedience, and in His death on the cross, He made provision for the redemption of men from sin.

God the Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God…He exalts Christ. He convicts of sin, of righteousness and of judgement. He empowers and enlightens the believer and the church in worship, evangelism, and service.

The Church: The New Testament Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a local body of baptized believers who are associated by covenant faith and fellowship of the gospel.
