About the Bible
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian
living (II Timothy 3:15-17).
15And that from a child thou hast known
the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus.
16All scripture is given by inspiration of
God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction
in righteousness:
17That the man of God may be perfect,
throughly furnished unto all good works.
II Timothy 3:15-17 (KJV)
About God
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ,
and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh; He is both God and
man (Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16).
16And without controversy great is the
mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen
of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into
glory.
I Timothy 3:16 (KJV)
About Sin and Salvation
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith,
based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians
2:8-9).
23For all have sinned, and come short of
the glory of God;
24Being justified freely by his grace
through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25Whom God hath set forth to be a
propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the
remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
Romans 3:23-25 (KJV)
About the Gospel
The gospel is the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose
again. We obey the gospel through repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the
name of Jesus (burial), and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit (resurrection)
(I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4).
1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you
the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye
stand;
2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in
memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3For I delivered unto you first of all
that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the
scriptures;
4And that he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures:
I Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)
About Christian Living
As Christians we are called to love God and others. We strive to live a holy life,
inwardly and outwardly, and to worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the
Spirit, including healing, are for the church today (Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians
7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10).
14Follow peace with all men, and holiness,
without which no man shall see the Lord:
Hebrews 12:14 (KJV)
About the Future
Jesus Christ is coming again to rapture His church. In the end, the final
resurrection and the final judgment will take place. The righteous will inherit
eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death (I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation
20:11-15).
16For the Lord himself shall descend from
heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17Then we which are alive and remain shall
be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so
shall we ever be with the Lord.
I Thessalonians 4:16-17 (KJV)
