Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, lived a perfect life, died on a cross, rose from the grave, and is coming back one day.
- Heaven and Hell both exist, and upon death, all humanity will go to one or the other.
- Jesus’ death on the cross was the atonement needed for all sin.
- Salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone. there is no other way to get to Heaven but through acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
- Jesus Christ will return one day. No one knows the time, day, month, or year that He will return. Upon His return, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
- The Holy Bible is inspired by God, without error, and is the only true document for teaching, preaching, and guidance in life.
