God exists and is the only true living God, one God. He is all-knowing, all-powerful, and always present. He does not change. He is sovereign. He is holy. He is infinite. He is eternal. He is love.
God exists as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. The Trinity, one God, three persons.
Jesus is the Son of God, fully God and fully human. He is perfect and He is sinless. Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. He died and was resurrected on the third day.
Salvation can only come through Jesus Christ.
We are saved by grace through faith– not by works.
The Bible is the inspired word of God. “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.” (2 Timothy 3:16)
Obedience to God’s commandments is an expression of our love for Him. “If you love Me, keep My commands.” (John 14:15) “Whoever has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me.” (John 14:21)
We have all sinned, and sin separates us from God. In Jesus, there is forgiveness of sins.
There is life everlasting in Jesus Christ.
