To Live is Christ. -
· There is One Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient, Omnipresent and Omnipotent God; Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit. These three are the One True and Living God. All three Persons

· Jesus Christ is the Word become flesh, born of the virgin Mary, fully God and fully man, who is the only mediator between God and man. He lived a perfect life without sin, the perfect revelation of the Father. He submitted Himself to the death of the cross once and for all to provide salvation to all who would believe upon Him. He rose again bodily from the dead, ascended into Heaven and will return at the end of the age to judge the living and the dead, the just and the unjust.
· The Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, teaches, empowers, sanctifies and resides within all believers. He produces fruit and bestows His gifts to all who have received Christ Jesus as Lord.
· In Adam man was created in the image and likeness of God. Yet through the fall of Adam, all men became sinners by nature, corrupt and alienated from the life of God. Man is spiritually dead and completely unable to save himself.
· Salvation has been provided for all mankind by God's grace alone through the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ. Faith is the means by which a believer appropriates Christ's death and the benefits of His grace. This faith will naturally bring forth works that will be in harmony with the Word of God and true righteousness. Everlasting punishment awaits all those who reject the salvation provided in Jesus Christ.
· The Scriptures, the Bible which include the Old and New Testaments, are fully inspired by God and infallible in their original writings. They are the Supreme authority for a believer's faith and conduct.
