THE SCRIPTURES

We believe that the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instruction: and it has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without any mixture of error and therefore is, and shall remain to the end of the world, the true center of Christian, and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds, and opinions should be tried.

THE TRUE GOD

We believe the scripture teach that there is one, and only one, living and true God, and infinite, intelligent, Spirit, whose name is Jehovah, the maker and Supreme Ruler of heaven and earth; inexpressibly glorious in holiness, and worthy of all possible honor, confidence and love, that in the unity of the Godhead there are three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; equal in every division perfection, and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption.

THE FALL OF MAN

We believe the scriptures teach that man was created in holiness, under the law of his Maker; but by voluntary transgression fell from that holy and happy state; in consequence of which all mankind are now sinners not by constraint but choice; being by nature utterly void of that holiness required by the law of God, positively inclined to evil; and therefore under just condemnation to eternal ruin, without defense or excuse.
