- The unity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in the Godhead;
- The sovereignty of God in creation, revelation, redemption and final judgment;
- The divine inspiration and infallibility of Holy Scripture, as originally given, and its
supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct;
- The universal sinfulness and guilt of human nature since the fall, rendering mankind
subject to God's wrath and condemnation;
- The full deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God; his virgin birth and
his real and sinless humanity; his death on the cross, his bodily resurrection and his
present reign;
- Redemption from the guilt, penalty and power of sin only through the sacrificial death
once and for all time of our representative and substitute, Jesus Christ, the only
mediator between God and man;
- Justification as God's act of undeserved mercy, in which the sinner is pardoned all his
sins, and accepted as righteous in God's sight, only because of the righteousness of
Christ imputed to him, this justification being received by faith alone;
- The need for the Holy Spirit to make the work of Christ effective to the individual
sinner, granting him repentance towards God and faith in Jesus Christ;
- The indwelling of the Holy Spirit in all those thus regenerated, producing in them an
increasing likeness to Christ in character and behaviour, and empowering them for their
witness in the world;
- The one holy universal Church, which is the body of Christ, and to which all true
believers belong;
- The personality of the Devil, who is the enemy of God's work and God's people;
- The future personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge all men, executing
God's just condemnation on the impenitent to a conscious eternal punishment and
receiving the redeemed to eternal glory.
