- The Bible - The inspired Word of God, our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21).
- The Trinity - The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit being coequal and eternally existent (1 John 5:6-8, Philippians 2:6).
- Eternal Life and New Birth - Man was created in the image of God but inherited the sin nature through Adam's fall. In order to receive eternal life, each person must confess and believe in the Lordship of Jesus Christ (Romans 5:14; 10:9-10).
- Water Baptism - A commandment of the Lord for every believer, an outward sign of an inward work (Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:4).
- The Baptism in the Holy Ghost and Spiritual Gifts - Evidence of speaking in tongues and the manifestation of spiritual power in public testimony and service is for every believer (Acts 2:4; 10:44-46; 19:2).
- Sanctification - A definite, yet progressive work of grace in the life of every believer calling them to a life of holiness (2 Corinthians 3:18).
- Divine Healing - Providence for the physical ills of the body, wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith and/or the atonement. God's will is to heal all (James 5:14-15).
- The Resurrection of the Just and the Return of Our Lord - His coming is imminent and soon. When He returns, the dead in Christ shall arise; the saints who remain shall be caught up together with them in the air. He shall return, following the great Tribulation, as King of Kings and Lord of Lords and together with His saints reign for a thousand years (1 Thess. 4:16-17, Revelation 20:6).
