Trusting in the Lord Jesus for strength and guidance, we the members of the Plainfield First Church of God, accept the Holy Bible as the rule of faith, conduct and discipline. Realizing the necessity of a system of harmony and cooperation for the best interest of the service to our Lord, we adopt the following constitution with the hope and expectation that the Lord’s work with us and in us may be forwarded.
.
We believe in one supreme God— the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; co-equal and co-eternal: and in the miraculous conception, the virgin birth, the vicarious sacrifice, the bodily resurrection, the triumphant ascension, and the second coming of our Lord.
.
We believe in the gift and work of the Holy Spirit; the divinely inspired Word of God as our only and all-sufficient rule of faith and practice; and in the free moral agency of man.
.
We believe God created man; man has fallen; and his only possible redemption is through the atonement of Christ.
.
We believe in the forgiveness of sins; rebirth by the Word and Spirit and church.
.
We believe baptism, feet washing, and the Lord’s Supper to be ordinances of the church.
.
We believe in the holiness of the Lord’s Day; and God’s appointment of civil governments.
.
We believe in the resurrection of the dead; the final judgement; and life everlasting.
.
We believe that marriage is a biblical institution established by God as clearly described in the Scriptures between one man and one woman.
