There is one God:
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; who subsist in unity, and
also as three separate distinct Persons.
Jesus Christ is God's Son. He was born of a virgin as both God
and man, lived a sinless life, died to atone for the sins of human
beings, was buried, arose from the grave, ascended into heaven and
will literally return to earth.
The Holy Spirit is the divine helper, assistant, counselor and
instructor and His work is to reveal Christ, convict of sin, lead to
repentance, guide believers, comfort, strengthen, and sanctify the
soul.
The Bible is God's Holy Word, without error, and is the sole
authority for life.
Human beings are the special creations of God, made in His
image. They fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and all human
beings are sinners in need of salvation.
Salvation is a gift through repentance toward God and faith in
Jesus Christ. Every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in
the Lord Jesus Christ and will spend eternity in heaven, while those
who die in their sins will spend eternity in hell.
Baptism is by immersion after salvation and is done in
obedience to Jesus Christ's command.
Each believer has direct access to God through the Lord Jesus
Christ.
The church is a local body of baptized believers with the Lord
Jesus Christ as the Head.
