The human phraseology employed in these statements are neither inspired nor contended for, but the truth that is set forth and held to be essential to a full Gospel ministry. No claim is made that it contains all the truth in the Holy Scripture; only that it covers orthodox fundamental matters.


THE SCRIPTURES INSPIRED
All of the Holy Scripture is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to men, the infallible rule of faith and conduct, and superior to conscience and reason (2 Tim. 3:15, 17; 1 Pet. 1:23-25; Heb. 4:12).

THE ONE TRUE GOD
The one true God, our Heavenly Father, has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent, self-revealed “I AM.” He has further exemplified himself in the relationship of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deut. 6:4; Mark 12:29; Isa. 43:10, 11; Matt. 28:19).

MAN: HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION
Man was created to be immortal, good and upright, for God said, “Let us make man in our image and after our likeness.” Man, by voluntary transgression, fell, and his only hope of redemption is in Yeshua Mashiach, the Son of God (Wis. 2:23; Gen. 1:26-31; Gen. 3:17; Rom. 5:12-21; Ecc. 7:29). 

THE SALVATION OF MAN
Conditions of Salvation
The Grace of God, which brings salvation, has appeared to all men, through the preaching of repentance toward God and through faith in the Lord Yeshua Mashiach; man is saved by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, and being justified by grace, has become heir of God according to the hope of eternal life (Titus 2:11; 3:5-7; Rom. 10:13-15; Luke 24:47).

Evidences of Salvation
The inward evidence to the believer of his/her salvation is the direct witness of the Spirit (Rom. 8:16). The outward evidence to all men is a life of holiness (1 Thess. 4:7, 2 Tim.1:9).

BAPTISM IN WATER
The ordinance of baptism by burial with Mashiach should be observed (as commanded in the Scriptures) by all that have repented of their sins and in their hearts have believed on Mashiach as their Savior and Lord. In doing so, they declare to the world that they have died with Mashiach and that they have also been released to walk with Him in newness of life (Matt. 28:19; Acts 19:47, 48; Rom. 6:4).

THE LORD’S SUPPER (COMMUNION)
The Lord’s Supper, consisting of the elements, bread and fruit of the vine, is the symbol expressing our sharing in a memorial to His suffering and death, and a prophecy of His second coming, and is enjoined to all believers “until He comes.” It is written, “And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.” (Luke 22:19, 20; John 6:48, 51, 53-57; 2 Pet. 1:4; 1 Cor. 11:25; Rom. 6:4).

THE PROMISE OF THE FATHER
All believers should ardently expect and earnestly seek the Promise of the Father, which is the baptism in the Holy Spirit. With it comes the infilling of power for life and service, and the bestowment of the gifts and their uses in the work of the ministry (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8; 1 Cor. 12:1-31). This experience may be distinct from and subsequent to the experience of being Born Again (Acts 2:38; 10:44-46; 11:14-16; 15:7-9).

THE SANCTIFICATION PROCESS
By the power of the Holy Spirit we strive to obey the command, “Be ye holy, for I am holy.” Sanctification is the will of God for all believers, and should be earnestly pursued by walking in obedience to God’s Word (Heb. 12:14; 1 Pet. 1:15,16; 1 Thess. 5:23,24; 1 John 2:6).

THE CHURCH
The Church is the Holy Body of Mashiach, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of her great commission. Each believer is an integral part of the Church, and his or her name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life (I Thess. 2:4). 

MINISTRY
Divinely called and Scripturally ordained ministry has been provided by our Lord for a two-fold purpose: (1) The evangelization of the world, and (2) The edification of the Body of Mashiach (Mark 15:16,20; Eph. 4:11-13).

DIVINE HEALING
Deliverance from sickness, both spiritual and physical, is provided for in the atonement of Mashiach and is the privilege of all believers (Isa. 53:4, 5; Matt. 8:16, 17; Mark 16:18; John 5:14).

THE BLESSED HOPE
The resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Mashiach and their translation, together with those who are alive and remain unto the Lord, is imminent and is the blessed hope of the Church (1 Thess. 4:16; Rom. 6:23; Titus 2:13; 1 Cor. 15:51,52). 

THE MILLENNIAL REIGN OF YESHUA
The revelation of the Lord Yeshua Mashiach from heaven, the salvation of national Israel, and the millennial reign of Mashiach on the earth are Scriptural promises and our hope (2 Thess. 1:7; Rev. 19:11-16; Rom. 11:25; Rev. 20:1-7). 

THE LAKE OF FIRE
The devil and his angels, the beast and the false prophet, and whosoever is not found written in the Lamb’s Book of Life shall be consigned to everlasting punishment in the lake of fire burning with brimstone, which is the second death (Rev. 19:20; 20:10-15). 

THE NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH
We, as promised in the Holy Scriptures, look for a new heavens and a new earth wherein righteousness dwells (2 Pet. 3:13; Rev. 21:1).
