The Bible
The Bible is the only inerrant, timeless Word of God, speaking infallible life-giving truth to all generations.
One Triune God
There is one God, who exists forever in the three persons of the Trinity: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died for the sins of the world and rose again, defeating death. Now He sits at God the Father’s right hand. One day He will return to earth to judge all people, dead and living.
People: Purpose, Failure, Provision
God created people to be in relationship with Himself. But we have all rebelled against God. That’s called sin. Sin separates us from God and deserves death. So God provided the only solution: He sent His Son, Jesus, to take the punishment for our sins by dying on the cross. He then raised Him back to life, defeating death.
Salvation
If we receive Jesus in faith and repentance, asking Him to forgive our sins, God will forgive us, giving us Christ’s own righteousness in place of our failures and we will live now and forever with God as our loving Father.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit indwells every Christian. He explains the Scriptures to us and He enables us to obey God.
Christianity
Christianity is a personal relationship with the living God through Christ Jesus. We nurture this relationship through spending time with God in His Word and in prayer.
