THE SALVATION ARMY 



ARTICLES OF WAR, 



To he signed by all who wish to he entered on the roll 

 as soldiers. 



Having received with all my heart the Salvation 

 oflFered to me by the tender mercy of Jehovah, I do here 

 and now publicly acknowledge Grod to be my Father and 

 King, Jesus Christ to be my Saviour, and the Holy Spirit 

 to be my Guide, Comforter, and Strength; and that I 

 will, by His help, love, serve, worship, and obey this glo- 

 rious God through all time and through all eternity. 



Believing solemnly that The Salvation Army has 

 been raised up by God, and is sustained and directed by 

 Him, I do here declare my full determination, by God'a 

 help, to be a true soldier of the Army till I die. 



I am thoroughly convinced of the truth of the 



Army's teaching. 

 I believe that repentance towards God, faith in 

 our Lord Jesus Christ, and conversion by the 

 Holy Spirit, are necessary to Salvation, and that 

 all men may be saved. 

 I believe that we are saved by grace, through faith 

 in our Lord Jesus Christ, and he that believeth 

 hath the witness of it in himself. I have got it. 

 Thank God! 

 1 believe that the Scriptures were given by inspira- 

 tion of God, and that they teach that not only 

 does continuance in the favour of God depend 

 upon continued faith in, and obedience to, Christ,
