About Jesus:
Jesus is God the Son. He is co-equal with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. Jesus was miraculously conceived and born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on the cross. He arose bodily from the dead after three days as a demonstration of 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.

About the Bible:

About Human Beings:
All people are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. All people are the supreme object of God’s creation and the direct focus of God’s love. Although every person has tremendous potential for good all people are marred by an attitude that separates people from God. This attitude causes one to place their standards over the standards of God which is sin.

Genesis 1:27 / Psalm 8:3-6 / Isaiah 53:6, 59:1-2 / Romans 3:23 / John 3:16
About Salvation:
Salvation is God’s free gift to us that we must accept. We can never make up for sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus as God’s offering of forgiveness, can anyone be saved from sin’s penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith, we are saved. Eternal life begins at the moment one receives Jesus into his/her life by faith.
