ARTICLES OF FAITH

1. The Holy Bible: This church accepts the sacred words of the 66 Books of the
Bible as the inspired revelation of GOD, as the sheet anchor of Faith and Eternal
Hope, and as the basic creed of the Church and the only standard of life for the
believer.
2. GOD: That the Eternal, True and Holy Trinity is one GOD existing in three
personalities – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

when he transgressed God’s commandment and that only Christ the Son of GOD
can restore the fallen man to pristine glory.
4. Repentance: That the fallen man should approach GOD with true repentance for
sins and faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ.

of Christ.
6. Regeneration: That the man is born of GOD through the Holy Spirit and the Word
of GOD.
