ever-present eternal Father, the source of all goodness, truth, and love who manifested Himself as the Father in creation, the son (Jesus Christ) in redemption and as the Holy Ghost in the church. • in the Divine inspiration of the scriptures and that the Word of God is the sufficient rule of faith and practice, and the final authority for truth and salvation. • in the deity of Jesus Christ, who died on the cross in our place as the supreme sacrifice for sin, was buried in a tomb, but rose again on the third day and is now exalted as King of kings and the Lord of lords and will soon return to earth with all power and Glory. • in the original plan of salvation which includes: repentance, baptism by immersion in water in the name of Jesus Christ, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. (Acts 2) • in living a life of holiness, both inwardly and outwardly, for the Word of God declares that believers should be holy as He is holy. (I Peter 1:16) • in the Church, established by the Lord as a spiritual community for worship, stewardship, and service to God and men. • in the Judgment Day, when all men will stand before God to account for their lives, where the unconverted will be punished, and the true Christians will receive their just rewards. • in tithing and offerings as the method of supporting the work of the Lord, as ordained in Malachi 3:8-10. |
| Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. - Acts 2:38 |
