*   in one God eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

*   in Jesus Christ's deity and humanity, His conception by the Holy Ghost, His virgin
     birth, His bodily resurrection, His personal visible return with power and great
     glory.

*   that man, being created by a direct act of God, was a righteous, free, moral being;
     that he sinned and thereby incurred the penalty of physical and spiritual death, not
     only for himself, but for the entire human race, with the result that we are all sinful
     by nature.

*   that Jesus Christ by his substitutionary death on the cross, made salvation possible
     for all who will receive Him as their only Lord and Savior; that salvation is wholly of
     grace, through repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ: that those
     who receive this salvation shall never perish; and that it is utterly impossible for
     anyone to be saved except through the Lord Jesus Christ.

*   that the local visible church is a congregation of baptized believers in a particular
     locality associated for worship, fellowship, service, and observance of the
     ordinances; that this local Church is independent, and that the only authority over
     it is that of Christ and the Word of God.

*   that every Christian should be baptized (immersed) in water in the name of the
     Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. This outward act is symbolic of the inward
     work of regeneration and only baptism of a regenerated individual is real.

*   in the observance of the Lord's Supper as the symbol of continual spiritual fellow-      ship with our Savior, that it is for believers only and that by doing this we remember
     His death until He comes.

*   in the pre-millennial, pre-tribulation return of Jesus Christ for His church, in the
     resurrection of the dead, and in the eternal blessedness of the saved and the eternal
     conscious suffering of the unsaved.
