The Bible
The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God.
II Tim. 3:16-17; II Peter 1:20-21
God
There is in one Triune God, eternally existing in three persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, each co-eternal in being, co-identical in nature, co-equal in power and glory, and perfect.
Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; II Cor. 13:14; John 14:10, 26
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, was 100% God, born of a virgin, and sinless.
Isa. 7:14; 9:6; Luke 1:35; John 1:1-2, 14; II Cor. 5:19-21; Gal. 4:4-5; Phil. 2:5-8
His actions paved the way for us to have a relationship with God.
Acts 2:18-36; Rom. 3:24-25; I Peter 2:24; Eph. 1:7; I Peter 1:3-5
Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit reveals to a person their need for a relationship with God and secures all believers eternally.
John 16:8-11; Rom. 8:9; I Cor. 12:12-14; II Cor. 3:6; Eph. 1:13-14
He teaches and assists believers when dealing with Scriptures.
Eph. 1:17-18; 5:18; I John 2:20, 27
He gifts specific individuals with gifts and talents, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to equip believers in the assembly in order that they can do the work of the ministry.
Rom. 12:3-8; I Cor. 12:4-11, 28; Eph. 4:7-12
He gave specific gifts in the past that served the church temporarily.
I Cor. 1:22; 13:8; 14:21-22
Man
Man was created in the image of God, but due to sin, became alienated from God. On our own we cannot access God through religious experiences or rites.
Gen. 1:26-27; Rom. 3:22-23; 5:12; 6:23; Eph. 2:1-3; 4:17-19
Salvation
A person can only have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. The good things we do for others do not get us into heaven.
Rom. 3:24; 6:23; John 3:16; 14:6; Eph. 1:7; 2:8-9; Titus 3:5
There are only two necessities for a person to start a relationship with God: Faith in Jesus Christ and repentance.
Acts 21:21; Luke 13:3; II Peter 3:9; Romans 5:1; John 3:3,36; I Cor. 6:19-20; Eph. 4:30
Evangelism
God calls all believers to share the gospel in their community and around the world.
Matt. 28:19-20; Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8; John 3:16
Second Coming of Christ
Jesus Christ is coming back for His Children.
Ps. 89:3-4; Dan. 2:31-45; Zech. 144-11; I Thess. 4:13-18; Titus 2:13; Rev. 3:10; 19:11-16; 20:1-6
Heaven and Hell
Heaven and Hell are literal places and each person has the choice of where they choose to spend eternity.
Matt. 25:46; John 5:28, 29; 11:25-26; Rev. 20:5-6, 12-13
Creation
Genesis literally and accurately describes God’s creative process.
Genesis 1-2; Exodus 20:11; John 1:3; Col. 1:16; Heb. 11:3
