• The Triune God head in three Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit
• The personality of Satan, called the Devil, and his present control over unregenerate mankind
• The fall and lost estate of man, whose lostness makes necessary the new birth
• The deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, death, bodily resurrection, present exaltation at God's right hand, and personal return
• The atonement by the subsitutionary death and shed blood of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior
• The resurrection of the saved to everlasting life in heaven, and the resurrection of the unsaved to everlasting punishment in hell
• The Church, the Body or Bride of Christ, consisting only of those who are born again, for whom He now makes intercession in Heaven and for whom He shall come again
