About Us

Question 1

Answer

God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are equal and are one God.

Genesis 1:1; Genesis 1:26-27; Genesis 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14

Question 2

Jesus

Answer

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is equal with the Father and Holy Spirit. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven and will return again someday to earth to reign as King.

Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; Hebrew 4:14-15; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 1:3-4; Acts 1:9-11; Colossians 2:9-10; 1 Timothy 6:14-15

Question 3

Holy Spirit

Answer

The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer spiritual gifts when they are saved. As Christians we seek to live under His control daily.

Acts 1:8; John 14:16-17; John 16:7-13; Galatians 5:25; 1 Corinthians 2:12; Ephesians 1:13; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 1 Peter 1:2

Question 4

The Bible

Answer

The Bible is God’s Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs about living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without error.

2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 119:105; Psalm 119:160; Psalms 12:6; Proverbs 30:5; Isaiah 55:11

Question 5

People

Answer

People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the supreme object of God’s creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin”. Sin separates us from God and cause many problems in our life.

Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 53:6; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59:1-2; Psalms 139:13-16; Colossians 2:13-15

Question 6

Salvation

Answer

Salvation is God’s free gift to us but we must accept it. We can never make up our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin’s penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith we are saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.

Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6; Romans 5:1; Romans 10:9-10; Romans 5:8

Question 7

Baptism

Answer

Baptism is symbolic of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. Once we have accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior, baptism is a way for us to publicly declare our new life in Christ. It is also a step of obedience based on God’s commands and allows us to follow the example of Jesus, who submitted himself to baptism to “fulfill all righteousness.”

Matthew 3:16-17; Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:41; Acts 8:12; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12
