[A] By evangelical sentiments, we understand, among others, a
belief in the guilty and lost condition of all men without a
Saviour; the Supreme Deity, Incarnation, and Atoning Sacrifice
of Jesus Christ, the only Saviour of the world; the necessity
of regeneration by the Holy Spirit; repentance, faith, and holy
obedience in order to salvation; the immorality of the soul; and
the retributions of the judgement in the eternal punishment of the
wicked, and salvation of the righteous.
