1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible, authoritative, written word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

4. We believe in the true deity and true humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His pre-existence, 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 future visible return in power and glory. (Colossians 1:13-20)
5. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only mediator between God and man. (1 Timothy 2:5)
