ABOUT GOD
- God is the
Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has
eternally existed in three personalities: the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These
three are co-equal and are one God and possess
equally all the attributes of deity and the
characteristics of personality.
Genesis 1:1,26,27, 3:22, Psalm 90:2, Matthew
28:19, 1 Peter 1:2, 2 Corinthians 13:14 |

ABOUT JESUS CHRIST
- Jesus Christ
is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the
Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and
offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the
sins of all people by dying on the cross. He
arose from the dead after three days to
demonstrate His power over sin and death. He
ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again
someday to earth to reign as King of Kings, and
Lord of Lords. The
only way to eternal salvation is through
personal belief that the blood of Jesus is
all-sufficient for the penalty of sin and an
acceptance of him into your life as Lord and
Savior.
Salvation is by grace alone, and salvation is
immediate and eternal upon acceptance of Jesus
as a one-time sacrifice for your sins, and not
obtained through any works, sacraments,
traditions or merits of our own.

14:10-30, Hebrews 4:14,15, 1 Corinthians 15:3,4,
Romans 1:3,4, 10-13, Acts 1:9-11, Ephesians
2:8-10, 1 Timothy 6:14,15, Titus 2:13 |

ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT
- The Holy Spirit
is co-equal to the Father and the Son of God. He
is present in the world to make men aware of
their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in
every Christian from the moment of salvation. He
provides the Christian with power for living,
understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance
in doing what is right. He gives every believer
a spiritual gift when they are saved. As
Christians, we seek to live under His control
daily.

ABOUT THE BIBLE
- The Bible is
God's Word to us. It was written by human
authors, under the supernatural guidance of the
Holy Spirit. Scripture thus at one and the same
time speaks with the
authority of God and reflects the backgrounds,
styles, and vocabularies of the human authors.
It is the supreme source of truth for Christian
beliefs and living. It is the written summary of
God's attempts to reach humankind. Because it is
inspired by God, it is the truth without any
mixture of error. And because God cannot lie,
this written Word is completely reliable, so we
must let it judge us instead of us judge it.
