 Through the years, the Apostolic Faith Church's leaders have maintained the doctrines outlined in Seymour's editions of the "Apostolic Faith" papers printed in 1906 through 1908.As a Trinitarian and fundamental church, their doctrinal position centers on a born-again experience, supports the Wesleyan teaching of holiness (Christian perfection), and stresses the need of sanctified believers to receive the Pentecostal experience of the baptism of the Holy Spirit.Their teachings are in direct conflict with Calvinistic beliefs regarding sin, predestination, and eternal security.
