There is only one God. He exists in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
He created the universe, sustains it, and wants a relationship with His creation called man.
Though man was made in God’s image, he has since become dislocated from God due to sin.
Sin is the anti-God state that has infinitely separated us from the all-holy God.
The Word of God is inerrant and the ultimate authority.
It is divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit and a special revelation of Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came from Heaven to earth, sinless and born of a virgin, to absorb the wrath upon our sin on the cross. In his lifetime he performed a vast amount of incredible miracles that showed a future glimpse of the kingdom of Heaven. Jesus rose from the dead as he said he would, displaying victory over sin, death, and Satan.
Jesus’ ministry continues through the Holy Spirit, the very Spirit of God, which indwells believers.
By faith in the work on the cross and repentance (turning away) of our sins, the Holy Spirit permanently indwells us for our sanctification, which is the renewal towards God’s righteousness by the Spirit. By that same faith alone, we avert our deserved penalty of Hell and instead receive eternal life with God in Heaven.
We’re to share the Gospel to bring along as many as we can.
Jesus will one day return in glory to carry up his children to Heaven, where we will be bodily renewed.
There will be a new Heavens and a new earth, all of creation redeemed and restored.

This is when God uses people like you to speak of finding the truth with Jesus. Thank you for following what he called you to do and share your story with us, from a non-believer to a complete believer and following his path. We are humans and perfect we will never be so this is why Jesus came for us cleanse us and give us eternal life through him. How loved are we by God that he gave his only son so we can be cleared of our sins and have hope. I am still in my journey of finding and knowing the Lord and remembering the phrase “Let go and let God! For we really have no control and when we trust God he will not leave us and will guide us. Faith is scary for the idea of completely surrendering is hard especially when you have control issues. Thank you for sharing that part of the doubt and to be honest I was first judgemental then I kept reading on with your message and I am glad I did.
Amen J.S. , Amen
I believe too. Got chills thinking about the last sentence…just think NO MORE CURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! “Gone is the curse from which I stumbled and fell…evil has vanished into eternal hell…”
