1.The Scriptures are the inspired Word of God and contain everything necessary for salvation.

2. There is One God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

3. Jesus Christ is truly God and truly human. He was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered and died for our sins, and was raised to life on the third day. He ascended to heaven and sits at the Right Hand of God, from where he will come to judge the living and the dead.

4. The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Trinity, not an impersonal force. He convicts people of the Truth about Jesus Christ and dwells in all true believers.

5. Humanity was created in the image of God but fell into sin, and are under God's just condemnation. No one can do anything, by their own good works or merit, to earn salvation.

6. The only way to be saved is by faith in the death of Christ on our behalf. Only his shed blood can atone for sin and make us right with God.

7. The true Church is made up of all who through faith in Christ are born again of the Spirit.
