The Common Faith

1. The Bible is the complete, divine revelation inspired word-by-word by God through the Holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:21; 2 Timothy 3:16)

2. God is uniquely one, yet triune: the Father, the Son, and the Spirit (1 Timothy 2:5a: Matthew 28:19).

3. The Son of God, even God Himself, was incarnated to be a man by the name of Jesus Christ (John 1:1, 14).

4. Christ died on the cross for our sins, shedding His blood for our redemption (1 Peter 2:24; Ephesians 1:7a).

5. Christ resurrected from among the dead on the third day (1 Corinthians 15:4).

6. Christ ascended to the right hand of God to be Lord of all (Acts 1:9; 2:33, 36).

7. Whenever any person repents to God and believes in the Lord Jesus, he is regenerated (born again) and becomes a living member of the one Body of Christ (Acts 20:21; John 3:3; Ephesians 1:22-23; Romans 12:5).

8. Christ is coming again to receive His believers to Himself (1 Thessalonians 2:19).
