Statement of the Faith |

2. We believe in one
God, perfect, eternally existing in three distinctive persons – Father, 3. We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man: that He was conceived by the Holy Spirit; that He was born of a virgin Mary; that He died upon the cross the Just for the unjust, as substitutionary sacrifice; that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood; that He arose bodily from the dead according to the scriptures; that He is now at the right hand of God as our high priest and advocate; that He will come again to complete His kingdom of righteousness and justice that He had already started at his first coming. 4. We believe that the Holy
Spirit is a divine person, the comforter, sent by the Lord Jesus 5. We believe that a man was created in the image and likeness of God; that he fell through disobedience and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God, and the salvation of the lost can be given by grace through faith, not by works, but through the shed blood of Jesus Christ and the regeneration of sinners by the Holy spirit. 6. We believe that there
shall be bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust; for the former 7. We believe that the
church, visible and invisible, is the body of Jesus Christ, consists |
