God, out of love for His children, sent His Son Jesus to die for our sins and to rise from
the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-8)

The Bible is the inspired word of God and is the final authority in life and doctrine (2 Timothy 3:16)

Salvation is a free gift of God; the death of Christ on the cross is the only sufficient payment for
sins; all have sinned but can be saved. This salvation is available for all who put their trust in Jesus
as Savior. (Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, John 3:16)

Those trusting in Christ should repent of sin, confess their faith and be baptized (Romans 10:9, Acts 2:39)

The church is the body of Christ on earth, empowered by the Holy Spirit to continue the task of reaching
the lost and discipling the saved, helping them become fully devoted followers of Christ (Ephesians 4:1-16)

Christ will one day return and reign forever (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18)
