There are 14 essential, non-negotiable doctrines that support the Gospel of Salvation. Ranging from the the Doctrine of Original Sin to the Personal Bodily Return of Jesus Christ including, but not limited to, His death and resurrection, grace and faith, the Trinity and the oneness of God. Knowing these doctrines and understanding how the build on one another helps us to establish a firm foundation in our faith.

The 14 essential doctrines are built on two presuppositions. The first is that there is a Doctrine of Salvation. The other is that we believe the Bible, the Holy Scripture is the Word of God. The Gospel of Salvation understands that Justification declares I am free from the penalty of sin. Sanctification declares I am free from the power of sin and Glorification declares I am free from the presence of sin.
