THE DEITY OF CHRIST. (I Tim. 3:16) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. (John 8:58) Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

THE SINLESS LIFE OF CHRIST. (2 Cor. 5:21) For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
6.
THE VOLUNTARY AND VICARIOUS DEATH OF CHRIST. (John 10:17) Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. (John 10:18) No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

THE BODILY RESURRECTION OF CHRIST. (Matt. 28:6) He is not here; for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. (Acts 1:3) To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God. (Luke 24:39) Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

11.
THE PREMILLENNIAL, PRE-TRIBULATIONAL RETURN OF CHRIST. (Acts 1:11) Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. (I Thes. 4:16) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first; (I Thes. 4:17) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
12.
THE MILLENNIAL REIGN OF CHRIST ON EARTH.

(Rev. 5:10) And hast made us unto our God kings and priests; and we shall reign on the earth.
13.
SALVATION ENTIRELY BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH ALONE. (Eph. 2:8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God. (Eph. 2:9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.
14.
THE ETERNAL SECURITY OF THE BELIEVER. (John 5:24) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent
me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. (John 10:27) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me; (John 10:28) And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

15.

Amen.
16.
BELIEVER'S BAPTISM ONLY.

And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
17.
TWO ORDINANCES OF THE LOCAL CHURCH Ä WATER BAPTISM BY IMMERSION AND THE LORD'S SUPPER (neither have any saving value). (Matt. 3:16) And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water; and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him; (Luke 22:19) And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me.
