... there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.
... in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal, future return to this earth in power and glory to rule over the nations.
... in the blessed hope - the rapture of the Church at Christ's coming.
... the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
... regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
... in water baptism by immersion.
... the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing of the human body in answer to prevailing prayer.
... the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
... in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
... in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation.
From Genesis through Revelation, God’s Word tells of salvation. This is HIS plan; this IS His way:
Jesus loves you so much that He was willing to pay a very high price to save you. That price ...His own life! (John 3:16) He paid the debt for our sin that He did not owe, so we can be free from the debt we could not pay. (Romans 5:8-9) The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:23)
Our sins have separated us from an open relationship with God. He, as Jesus, came to tear down the wall that separates us! The blood of Jesus is our salvation. Living your life according to God’s standards is your salvation.
If your speech and your ways are pleasing to man, perhaps you need to question your salvation. (Galatians 1:10) Jesus is our standard… His ways nor His speech were always acceptable.
