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.


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 sins of all people by dying on a 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 reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.


Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; 14:10-30;


Hebrews 4:14-15; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 1:3-4;


Acts 1:9-11; 1 Timothy 6:14-15; Titus 2:13


About the Holy Spirit


The Holy Spirit is co-equal with 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 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. He never leads in conflict with His revealed word.


2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13, 14:16-17; Acts 1:8;


1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25;


Ephesians 5:18


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. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living.


2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21; 2 Timothy 1:13;


Psalm 119:105, 160, 12:6; Proverbs 30:5


About Human Beings


People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the supreme object of God’s creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin”. This attitude separates people from God and causes many problems in life.


Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59:1-2


About Salvation


Salvation is God’s free gift to us but we must accept it. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sins’ penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith we are saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus into his life by faith and as a demonstration of that faith is buried with Christ in baptism for the forgiveness of sins. As we continue to walk in the light as He is in the light we have the hope of sharing a home with him for eternity.


Acts 2:38; Romans 6:3-4, 23; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6; 1:12; Titus 3:5; 1 John 1:7
