and life. |

and Holy Spirit. |
| 3. | That Jesus Christ is true God and true man having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin
Mary. He died on the cross a sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended
into heaven where at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate. |

the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ; and during this age to convict men, regenerate the believing sinner,
indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service. |

of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost. Only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life
be obtained. |

for all who believe. Only those who receive Jesus Christ are born of the Holy Spirit, and thus become children of God. |

head of the Church and that every local church has the right under Christ to decide and govern its own affairs. |

and imminent coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. That this "Blessed Hope" has a vital bearing on the personal life
and service of the believer. |
| 12. | In the bodily resurrection of the dead. Of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the
Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment. |
