''These are non-negotiable tenets of faith that all Assemblies of God churches adhere to. This list is derived from the official Statement of Fundamental Truths.''
----
The Scriptures [[Scripture]]s are Inspired by [[God ]] and declare His design and plan for mankind.
There is only One True God–revealed in three persons...[[Father]], [[Son]], and [[Holy Spirit ]] (commonly known as the [[Trinity]]).
As God's son [[Jesus ]] was both human and divine.
Though originally good, Man Willingly Fell to [[Sin ]] – ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship with God Through '[[Salvation]]' (accepting Christ's offer of [[forgiveness ]] for sin) ''(1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the Assemblies of God)''
Two ordinances are believed and practiced
 1. # Water [[Baptism ]] by Immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation  2. # [[Holy Communion ]] (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation.
The [[Baptism in the Holy Spirit ]] is a Special Experience Following Salvation that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in [[New Testament ]] times. ''(1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the Assemblies of God)''
The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is ‘Speaking ‘[[Speaking in Tongues]],’ as experienced on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts and the Epistles.
There will be a perfect New Heavens and a New Earth that Christ is preparing for all people, of all time, who have accepted Him. We will live and dwell with Him there forever following His millennial reign on Earth. 'And so shall we forever be with the Lord!'
