- We believe in one God, eternally existing and manifest as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, “the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth”, born of the Virgin Mary, in His perfect humanity, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection from the dead, and His personal triumphant return.
- We believe in the immortality of the soul, the resurrection of the dead, and a future state determined by divine judgement.
- We believe in the divine inspiration and infallibility of the Bible as the Word of God and the only trustworthy guide of faith and life.
- We believe a Christian is one saved by grace whose life is transformed into the likeness of Christ by His atoning death and the power of His resurrection.
- We believe that Christ lived and taught the way of life as recorded in the Scriptures which is God's plan for individuals and the human race, and that the disciples of Christ should live this way, thus manifesting in their personal and social life and relationships the love and holiness of God. And we believe that this way of life also implies nonresistance to evil by carnal means, the fullest exercise of love, and the resolute abandonment of the use of violence, including warfare. We believe further that the Christian life will of necessity express itself in nonconformity to the world in life and conduct.
- We believe in prayer as fellowship with God, a desire to be in His will, and in its divine power.
- We believe that the Christian Church consists of believers who have repented of their sins, have accepted Christ by faith and are born again, and sincerely endeavor, by the grace of God, to live the Christian life.
- We believe in the fellowship of the redeemed under the Fatherhood of God in Christ
