Standing for the verbal inspiration of the Bible; The Deity of Christ; His virgin birth; sinless life; sacrificial death (Blood Atonement); His bodily Resurrection, and His Ascension into Heaven; The Pre-Tribulational, and Pre-Millennial return of Christ to receive His very own unto Himself in the Rapture of the saints; later returning with His saints after the Tribulation period to set up His earthly Kingdom and to reign over the redeemed of Israel, and the redeemed of all the nations as Prince of Peace, King of kings, and Lord of lords, bringing peace and blessings to the whole world. He is Supreme and will be the Supreme Ruler then, highest in authority and preeminent; He can do anything He wills to do, any time He wills to do it, involving whom-so-ever He wills to involve, and He is always right about everything. See Genesis 18:25.
- Man is totally depraved, a sinner both by nature and choice and is totally lost and in need of salvation, of a born-again experience by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Ephesians 2:8-9, "For by grace through faith are ye saved; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Romans 6:23, "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" All have sinned, therefore all need a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; According to I Corinthians 12:13, all true believers are baptized by the Spirit into the body of Christ; The body is the Church and Christ is the Head; All who by faith receive the the Lord Jesus as Savior are born-again and receive the Holy Spirit and a new nature; God is the creator of all things, Genesis chapter one & John chapter one; God...eternally existing in three persons in a threefold relationship, that of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; God is Sovereign; He is Self-contained and Self-controlled; The Bible is the only infallible, authoritative Word of God preserved in the English-speaking world in the Authorized King James Version.
