We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God and in its entirety a revelation given to man under divine inspiration and providence; that its historic statements are correct, and that it is the only divine standard of faith and practice. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21)

We believe that salvation is free to all those who, in this life, accept it on the conditions imposed, which conditions are simple and inflexible, namely, turning from sin, repentance toward God, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and a life of consecration to the service of God; thus excluding all hope of a future probation, or of universal salvation. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (Titus 3:4-7)

We believe that Jesus Christ, according to his promise, will come again to this earth, even “in like manner” as he went into heaven – personally, visibly and gloriously – to reign here forever; and that this coming is the hope of the church, inasmuch as upon that coming depend the resurrection and reward of the righteous, the abolition of sin and its consequences, and the renewal of the earth – now marred by sin – to become the eternal home of the redeemed, after which event the earth will be forever free from sin and death. (Matthew 24:27; John 5:28-29; Acts 1:9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:10-23; Revelation 21:1-5).
