about the bible.
about man.
January 2023 - June 2024
about salvation.
-
The Bible is God’s word to all men
-
It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit
-
It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living.
-
Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error
-
Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like him in character.
-
He is the supreme object of God’s creation.
-
Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of
-
disobedience toward God called “sin.” This attitude separates man from God.
-
Salvation is a gift from God to man
-
Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works – only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin’s penalty
