A Testimony of Affirmation of Christianity
I believe in One True and Living Supreme Being as Creator God of all things.
I believe this God exists as Three Individuals united into one Being and functioning as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
I believe that the Heavens and Earth were Created by this Three-In-One God
I believe that sin came into the world through the influence of a fallen angel, and that mankind chose to fall away from perfection by committing disobedience towards God’s commandments
I believe that God required a penalty for sin committed against Him, and that He chose Jesus Christ to experience death and resurrection sacrificially atoning for all mankind
I believe that God, through His Son Jesus, enlightens every person on the Earth towards that opportunity to do good, gifting all people with freedom of choice
I believe that God’s Word has been given to mankind over the centuries through hearing audibly, seeing it written, and perceiving it spiritually in our mind and heart.
I believe that the Bible, as a collection of inspired words written through human hands, records some of God’s Word to all mankind and should be valued as specially preserved truth literally relevant for our lives and a proven example by which we may test all other words
I believe that God chose the descendents of Abraham and his son Israel, to be an example of His working in the lives of mankind
I believe God allowed His Son Jesus, to be born of the virgin Mary, raised to live a holy and blameless life, teaching, ministering, and blessing the lives of people on Earth
I believe that Jesus Christ is The Light of the World and that all people of every nation and generation may look to Him for the Light of Life
I believe that Jesus gathered followers amongst people on Earth, teaching them and bidding them to live by all the Words of God
I believe these followers of Jesus teachings came to be called Christians, and that the assembled meetings of these people came to be called churches
I believe that there is an age of accountability that mankind develops into during life, at which point we are confronted with the opportunity to chose the Light of Christ which enlightens us to do good
If in choosing to embrace that Light, we are convinced of His Truth, mankind may then experience a spirit immersed in The Holy Ghost and true communion with God
I believe Christians should continue to follow the teachings of Jesus by heeding God’s Word (in every way it is revealed) and by assembling together as the church to admonish and encourage one another towards following the Light
I believe in the blessed hope of Jesus’ promise to return for His followers in the Last Day of the Time of Earth, granting them eternal life together with God
" Eternity.When you drop your own concerns. And embrace God.
You are free ".
