1. THE INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE.
We believe the Bible is the verbally inspired
Word of God and use only the KJV.
2. THE PERSON OF GOD.
We God believe is supreme in his person, eternal
in his being.
3. THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST.
We believe in the virgin birth of Christ, his
eternal deity and sinless life, his vicarious death and his bodily resurrection and ascension.
4. THE
PERSON OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
We believe the Holy Spirit is the executive of
the Godhead. We believe that he executes the plan of God for our conviction and salvation. Christians are partakers of the
Holy Spirit and empowered for service by him.
5. THE
FALL OF MAN.
We believe that man was created in the image
of God and by choice fell into sin and death. Hence every person is sinful and under condemnation to eternal judgment.
6. THE
SALVATION OF SINNERS.
We believe that the salvation of sinners is wholly
of grace. And that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation.
7. THE
FREENESS OF SALVATION.
We believe that the blessings of salvation are
made free by the Gospel, that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner but his own inherent depravity and voluntary
rejection of the Gospel.
8. THE
SECURITY OF THE BELIEVER.
We believe that those who receive Jesus Christ
as Savior are eternally secure. Our security rests on the finished work of Jesus Christ. As a result we have assurance.
9. THE
DOCTRINE OF THE CHURCH.
We believe that the visible church is a congregation
of baptized believers practicing New Testament principles, believing its doctrines, observing its ordinances and exercising
its autonomy.
10. THE DOCTRINE OF HEAVEN AND HELL.
We believe the eternal blessedness of the saved
in Heaven and the eternal punishment of the lost in Hell.
11. ESCHATOLOGY.
We believe in the pretribulation rapture of the
church followed by the seven year tribulation and the premillennial second coming of Christ.
12. CURRENT
TRENDS IN THEOLOGY.
As a fundamental school B. I. B. I. takes a separatist
stand regarding the current trends that lead to discarding the Bible and undermining the fundamentals of the faith. These
trends include Neo-orthodoxy, Neo-evangelicalism, Neo-pentecostalism and the Ecumenical Movement.
