(Axiom = self-evident truth)

1. The Bible is the Word of God -- our only rule of faith and practice.

2. God is more important than man.

3. God's honor is more important than man's honor.

4. God's ways are better than man's ways.

5. God's love is more perfect than man's love

6. Man is never benefited when God is dishonored.

7. God's judgment is necessary for man's welfare.

8. It is never right to do wrong. There is never a good reason for doing a wrong thing.

9. Partial obedience or selective obedience is disobedience.

10. The Holy Spirit of God never leads anyone to do anything that is contrary to His Word.

11. Anything that is not Scriptural is not spiritual — of the Holy Spirit.

12. It is always wrong to add strength or numbers to an apostasy.

13. It is always wrong to give credibility to the works of apostasy.

14. It is always wrong to give authority to the message of apostasy.

15. God has not called us to succeed. He has called us to work hard and to be faithful.

16. Fighting is absolutely necessary under certain conditions. That for which you will not fight, you will ultimately lose.

17. God has enemies. I am not enjoined to relate to God's enemies in the same way I am to my own personal enemies. Entirely different principles apply to each.
