the Godhead, the Father the Son & the Holy Ghost, and these

We believe that all mankind are born unholy &

We believe that men are free agents voluntarily
chosing life or death, and acting from this free choice they
are justly accountable for all their actions & must render
strict account for all their sins.
We believe that without regeneration, or being

vicarious atonement he became a profitiation for our sins, & not
for ours only but for the sins of one whole world ^ so that who
soever believes in him might not perish, but have everlas
ting life.
We therefore believe that all who believe not on the
Son of God are under condemnation all ready ^ that the
wrath of God abideth on them, and unless they repent &
turn to God by faith, they will justly continue to un
der that condemnation throughout eternity.
We therefore believe that all the truly [illegible] will [crossed out] are
the sons of God, & that they shall good part ^ which they have chosen shall not
be taken away from there neither is there any one who
is able to pluck them from their fathers hand.
We believe that Christ has established a visible
church on earth, consisting of those who being born again
associate themselves together for mutual help watch & care & for
the proper observance of the ordinances which he has established
& that it is the bourden due & highest privilege of all true believers
to thus publicky, confess him before men, and in so far
become separated from the unbelieving world around them
