... in one God, Maker of all things who eternally exists in Trinity as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (I John 5:4-7; John 1:1-14)
... in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.
(I Cor. 15:3; I Peter 2:23-24; John 3:16)
... that the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative Word of God. (II Tim. 3:16)
... that for salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (Rom. 3:21-30; Gal. 4:4-7)
... that a person receives the Holy Spirit upon salvation (I Cor. 6:19).
... that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is a subsequent experience to salvation, which can happen at salvation. The purpose of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is for empowering a person to live the Christian life (Acts 1:8). Speaking in tongues is a separate experience, which may come before, after, or at the time of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The purpose of speaking in tongues (a believer’s prayer language) is for personal edification (I Cor. 14:4).
... that Jesus has provided for our healing: physical, emotional, and spiritual (I Peter 2:24). Because it is God’s heart to heal (Luke 5:12-13), we pray for and believe in the laying on of hands for healing (Mark 16:18).
... that the five-fold ministry (Eph. 4:11-12) is given to equip all believers to fulfill the ministry that He has called them to.
... that the Christian life should be lived out in loving, caring community. (Acts 2:42-47)
... in the imminent return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ (I Thess. 4:16-18; Rev, 22:20).
... in the resurrection of both the saved and lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto damnation (John 5:24-29).
