God
There is one eternally existing God
who has three distinct persons:
God the Father, God the Son, and
God the Holy Spirit.
He is the creator of all that exists,
both visible and invisible,
and is, therefore, worthy of all glory and praise.
God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness,
knowledge, wisdom, justice, and mercy.
He is unchangeable and therefore is the same
yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Revelation

who is the visible image of the invisible God,
the holy scriptures,
and through all of creation itself.

Mankind
Humans, both male and female, were created
in God's image for His glory.
The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created
without sin and appointed as caretakers of
the rest of God's creations.

The Fall
When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God,
they ceased to be what they were made to be and
became distorted images of God.
This caused them to fall out of
fellowship with God,
and fractured all of creation ever since that time.

Salvation
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God.
He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers eternal life as a free gift to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior.
That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.
