He is the way, the truth, and the light. No man can come to the Father or have relationship with the Father unless they come through Jesus Christ by receiving him into their hearts as their personal Lord and Savior.
Romans 10:9-10
The Bible is God’s Word to all of mankind. It was written by people who were inspired by Holy Spirit. It is the truth, it does not contain any error, and is still relevant to our lives.
Deuteronomy 4:1-2
The blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the only way of salvation through the forgiveness of sin. Salvation occurs when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation is a gift from God, and it cannot be earned through our own efforts.
Romans 10:9-10; Romans 1:16-18; Galatians 2:16
The Holy Spirit’s presence assures us of our relationship with Christ. He guides believers into all truth and exalts Christ. He convicts people of their sin, God’s righteousness, and the coming judgment. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and makes us more like Christ.
Joel 2:28-32; Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; 2:1-4; John 16:7-11
The Church is a local community of baptized believers unified through faith in Christ. It is committed to the teachings of Christ and obeying all of His commands, and it seeks to bring the Gospel to the world. The Church works together in love and unity, intent on the ultimate purpose of glorifying Christ.
Acts 2:41-47; Ephesians 1:22-23
It is not a suggestion. It is a commandment that Jesus gave to all believers.
Jesus said, “Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”
Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:35
The Lord Himself commanded us to do this! The Apostle Paul wrote, “For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread….(and) took the cup also saying. Do this in remembrance of Me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.”
Mark 14:22-25; I Corinthians 11:23-26
Man was created to exist forever. He will exist either eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is Heaven. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
John 3:16, 36; Romans 6:23; 1 John 2:25; 5:11-13; Revelation 20:15
