n and plenary
authority of the BIBLE in its origi-
nal writings (II Tim. 3:16,17; II Pet.
1:21).
2. The eternal Trinity of the GODHEAD
(Deut. 6:4; I Tim. 2:5; Eph. 4:4-6; Matt.
28:19; II Cor. 13:14).
3. The eternal Deity, virgin birth, vicari-
ous death, and spotless humanity of
the LORD JESUS CHRIST (Luke
1:35; Phil. 2:6-9; Rom. 1:3,4).
4. MANKIND by nature is sinful and
under the condemnation of God (Eph.
2:1-3; Rom. 3:9-12; I Cor. 1:18-31).
5. Personal SALVATION is by God’s
grace, through faith in the crucified,
risen, and glorified Christ (Rom. 3:24-
28; 5:1,9; Eph. 2:8,9; I Cor. 15:1-4).
6. The ETERNAL SECURITY of all the
saved (Col. 3:1-4; Phil. 1:6; Rom. 8:1;
8:29-34; 8:38,39; John 10:27-29; Eph.
1:13,14).
7. The personality and Deity of the
HOLY SPIRIT (John 16:8; Titus 3:5;
I Cor. 12:13; Eph. 1:13; 3:16).
8. The essential unity of all believers
of the present dispensation as mem-
bers of the one true Church, the BODY
OF CHRIST (Eph. 1:22,23; I Cor.
12:13).
9. The GIFTS enumerated in Ephesians
4:7-16, have been given for the build-
ing up of the Body of Christ, and of
these, only evangelists, pastors, and
teachers are in order during the
present dispensation. The sign gifts
of the Acts period were temporary in
character, and have ceased (I Cor.
13:8-13).
10. The privilege and duty of all the saved
to WALK by faith as children of light
(II Cor. 5:7; Eph. 5:11).
11. The Communion of the LORD’S SUP-
PER as revealed through Paul for the
members of the Body of Christ “till He
come” (I Cor. 11:23-26).
12. All believers are made members of
the Body of Christ by One Divine
BAPTISM (I Cor. 12:13), by which also
they are identified with Christ in His
death, burial and resurrection (Rom.
6:3,4). In light of I Corinthians 1:17,
Ephesians 4:5, and Colossians 2:12,
we affirm that water baptism has no
place in God’s spiritual program for
the Body of Christ in this dispensa-
tion of Grace.
13. The RESURRECTION of the body
(Luke 24:39-43; I Cor. 15:40-44).
14. The Pretribulation RAPTURE of the
Church (I Thes. 4:13-18; Titus 2:13,14;
I Cor. 15:51-53; Phil. 3:20,21).
15. The personal, premillennial RETURN
OF CHRIST to reign on earth (Zech.
14:4,9; Acts 1:10,11; Rev. 19:11-16;
20:4-6).
16. The ETERNAL PUNISHMENT of the
unsaved dead (Luke 16:23-28; II Thes.
1:9; Rev. 14:11; 20:14,15).
17. The MYSTERY “Hid in God” was the
divine purpose to make of Jew and
Gentile a whole new thing, that is, the
Church, which is Christ’s Body. The
revelation of this Mystery was com-
mitted to Paul, and it is in his writ-
ings alone that we find the doctrine,
position, walk and destiny of the
Church (Gal. 1:11,12; Eph. 3:1-9; Col.
1:24-27).
On This
We Stand
2 Chronicles 32:20 And for this cause Hezekiah the king, and the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, prayed and cried to heaven. 32:21 And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword. 32:22 Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all other, and guided them on every side.
