The Ministry accepts the Scriptures as the revealed Will of God, the all-sufficient rule of Faith and Practice, and for the purpose of maintaining general unity, adopts this Statement of Fundamental Truths and Doctrine.
Section 1
The Scriptures Inspired. The Bible is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to man, the infallible rule of faith and conduct and is superior to conscience and reason, and is augmented by direct revelation (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Peter 1:23- 25; Hebrews 4: 12; 1 Corinthians 2, Genesis 12-22; Daniel).
Section 2
The One True Godhead. The Triune Godhead is comprised of three (3) separate and distinct personalities. The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit, who are eternally self-existent, self-revealed and function as one entity. Jesus Christ, who is God manifested in the flesh, is the second member of the Godhead, co-equal and co-eternal with The Father and The Holy Spirit (John 14:26, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14).
Section 3
Man, His Fall and Redemption. Man was created good and upright, for God said,” Let us make man in Our image, after Our likeness” But, man by voluntary transgression, fell and his only hope of redemption is in Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Genesis 1:26-31, 3:1-7; Romans 5:12-21)
Section 4
The Salvation of Man.
- Man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. On the cross, Jesus Christ became sin and sickness providing both salvation and divine healing for all mankind (Psalm 103; Isaiah 53:3-5), being justified freely by His Grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. For by grace we are saved through faith. “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is. The word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved: for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation” (Romans 3:24; Ephesians 2:8, Romans 10:8-10, Hebrews 8:1-10:39).
- The Evidence of Salvation. The inward evidence to the believer of his salvation, is the direct witness of the Spirit (Romans 8: 16). The outward evidence to all men is a life of righteousness and true holiness “And this is His commandment, that we believe in the Name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us” (1 John 3:23).
- Faith and Works. Salvation is by faith in Jesus Christ and not by human works. However, our works will determine the rewards in Eternity (Romans 10:9-10: 1 Corinthians 3:11-17, 2 Corinthians 5:10)
