That all men every where are lost and face the judgment of God, and need to come to the saving of Jesus Christ through His blood shed on the cross. Repentance is commanded of God and is necessary for the forgiveness of sins. We are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus.
The Church is the Body and Bride of Christ, whose task is to take the Gospel to all men in all nations and to make disciples of them. Jesus Christ I the Head of the Church.
That all the gifts of the Holy Spirit are available and are for the church today for the purpose of edification, world evangelism and th building of God's kingdom on earth.
That there is a literal heaven, a place prepared by God for all who put their trust in him th atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross; and there is a literal lake of fire where all who reject Jesus as Saviour and Lord will burn forever. |
