Doctrinal Statement of the World’s Christian Fundamentals Association I. W e believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as verbally in i spired by God, and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life. II. W e believe in one God, eternally exist ing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. III. W e believe that Jesus Christ was be gotten by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man. IV. W e believe that man was created in the image of G od ; that he sinned, and thereby incurred, not only physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from G od; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and, in the case of those who reach moral re sponsibility, become sinners in thought, word, and deed. V. W e believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scrip tures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all that believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood. VI. W e believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven, and in His present life there for us, as High Priest and Advocate. VII. W e believe in “ that blessed hope,” the personal, premillennial and imminent re turn of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. VIII. W e believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit, and thereby become children of God. IX. W e believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlast ing, conscious punishment of the lost.
