The Holy Scripture is the only source and complete foundation of our faith, the only guideline in teaching and life. God through His prophets in the Old Testament and by the apostles in the New Testament has left with us all we need to know. The Bible contains the whole testimony of God whereunto nothing can be added like it is with a last will.
 

Only what the apostles left behind in the New Testament is truly "apostolic teaching." Only what the Bible truly teaches is "biblical." Only what originates from Christ Himself is "Christian." Statements of faith declared at different councils throughout church history are rejected as additions and forgeries of the original Word.

Our fellowship does not claim to be the only one with salvation. We are merely a part of the "ecclesia" together with all who are "called out" by the Word of God and are "chosen" to be part of the Church of the living God. The Lord Himself builds the Church, and He also completes it for the day of His return.
 

The belief in one true God, besides whom there is no other, who manifests all His attributes as Creator, Sustainer, Savior, King, Judge, etc., is for us the only binding and valid foundation of faith. "Hear, O Israel, the Eternal, our God, the Eternal is One!" (Dt. 6:4-9; Mk. 12:28-34). This is the oldest documented scriptural statement of faith, coming directly from the lips of God Himself.
 

At the beginning of the natural creation Satan through deceiving Eve and pulling Adam into the transgression all humanity was drawn into the fall. In this wise Satan received influence and power over the whole creation, which by disobedience and transgression was separated from God and thrown into death.
 

At the beginning of the supernatural creation God took fallen humanity back from Satan through the second — the last Adam, overshadowing Mary and by begetting of the Holy Ghost the Son of God was born into this world. Through redemption and reconciliation the damage was made good and the fellowship with God was re-established and we received the adoption as sons (Gal. 4:4-7). "God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself." (2 Cor. 5:19).

The secret of redeeming lost humanity lies in the fact that the Redeemer Himself, as the Word that was in the beginning, became flesh, a fully human being, so that in His body of flesh He could die vicariously. He then descended, conquering death and hell, and manifested new life through His resurrection. Because the fall occurred in the body of flesh and blood, the redemption of fallen humanity also had to be accomplished in a body of flesh, so that the holy blood, wherein divine life resided, could be shed on the Cross of Calvary.
