The Assemblies of God Statement of Fundamental Truths is a description of the doctrines that the Assemblies of God adhere to. These doctrines are heavily based on the evangelical confessions of faith, but differs by being clearly Pentecostal in many of their doctrines.
Statements 1-6 are common confessions in any traditional Christian denomination.
Statements 7 and 8 diverge from traditional Christianity by taking a more modern and Pentecostal view of the work of the Holy Spirit.
The AoG believe that the Baptism of the Holy Spirt is manifest by Speaking in Tounges.
The subject of Divine Healing is addressed in Statement 12. The official Church teaching is that Christ paid for all physical suffering with his atoning work. As a consequence, a Christian should never get sick.
Statements 13-16 deal largly with the subject of eschatology. The AoG adheres to a Futurist stance that is clearly of the dispensationalist camp.
