* Isaiah 43-11/44:8/45:22/Deuteronomy 4:35/4:39
The Bible teaches that God, by creation, is our Father.
* Isaiah 63:26/Malachi 2:10/Ephesians 4:5-6
The Bible teaches that God is holy.
* Leviticus 20:26/19:2/Isaiah 5:16/30:15
The Bible teaches that God is a Spirit.
* John 4:24/2 Corinthians 3:17
A biblical descriptive title for God is “The Holy Spirit”.
* Acts 5:3-4
2. The Bible
The Bible is the infallible inspired Word of God; the word “inspired” meaning God-breathed and every word is true.
* 2 Timothy 3:16/John 17:17/Proverbs 30:5/Psalm 19:7-11
3. The Fallen State Of Man
Adam was created without sin, but by sinning he was separated from relationship with God, and all of humanity, being in Adam, became separated from God as sinners from birth.
* Romans 3:23/Galatians 3:22/Ecclesiastes 7:20/Psalm 14:2-3
When Adam sinned death was introduced to humanity, death being the payment for sin.
* Romans 6:23/Ezekiel 18:4/Romans 5:12
All who die without biblical salvation, without having their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will see death, followed by Hell, and finally eternal torment in the Lake of Fire, which is the second death.
* Revelation 20:10 and vs.14-15/Matthew 25:41
4. The Lord Jesus Christ

* Matthew 16:16/John 20:3031/1 John 5:5

Every person is born in need of salvation, as sinners.
* Romans 3:23/Galatians 3:22
Jesus Christ was sent for our salvation.
* John 3:16-17/Luke 19:10
Jesus commands that all people repent lest they perish.
* Matthew 4:17/Mark 1:14-15/Luke 13:3 and vs.5/Acts 17:30-31
The Apostles, like Jesus, preached repentance as necessary for salvation.

Water baptism is by complete immersion and only for those who believe the gospel of Jesus Christ.
* Mark 1:9-10/Acts 8:38/ and Acts 2:41/8:35-38
The initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance.

6. Holiness God commands us to be holy even as He is holy, being separated from sin and totally dedicated to God.

* 1 Peter 2:5/2:9
As priests, every Christian has direct access and communication with God.
* Hebrews 4:16/10:19-22
9. The Ascension Gifts
When Christ ascended back to heaven he gave gifts (spiritual giftings) to mankind, these gifts include primarily what is known as the five-fold ministry:
- Apostles
- Prophets
- Evangelists
- Pastors
- Teachers
These gifts were given for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, until we all come to unity in The Faith and knowledge of the Son of God, to the perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. This point the body of Christ has not yet reached, thusly, these gifts continue with us even until this day.
