The Fundamentals of The Christian Faith.
People of God there are certain foundational truths in the Holy Bible that cannot be debated or changed at any time for anyone. These are what I call The Fundamentals of The Christian Faith.
All these truths come from God’s Holy Word so study them diligently in so that you may grow strong in your most holy faith. These Fundamentals will protect you from false prophets, false teachers, and false teachings of men.
The Fundamentals of The Christian Faith are here below.
1. The Deity and Supremacy of Christ. Jesus is God and The Lord of The Universe.
Jesus was God, is God, and always will be God. The bible teaches us that Jesus pre - existed as God before He came to this earth in human flesh.
Jesus is God and always will be God. Jesus never at any time ceased to be God. We reject the blasphemous heresies that teach Jesus laid his divinity aside.
The bible clearly teaches us that Jesus is God and The Lord of the whole universe.
Read (John 8:58) (John 20:28) (Hebrews. 1:8) (John 1:1-3; 14) (Colossians 1:15-19) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:19) (1 Peter 2:22) (1 Peter 3:18) (Hebrews 7:25-27).
2. Jesus is The Eternal Only Begotten Son of God. Yes, Jesus is indeed The Holy Messiah and He himself has claimed to be The Messiah.
Read (John 3:16-18) (John 4:25-26) (1 John 2:22-23) (1 John 3:23-24) (1 John 4:1-6, 14-15) (1 John 5:1-13, 20) (Matthew 3:16-17) (Matthew 14:33) (Matthew 17:5) (Matthew 26:62-64) (Luke 1:26-38) (John 8:23-25).
3. The Incarnation and The supernatural miraculous virgin birth of Christ.
Jesus Christ is the only one who had a supernatural miraculous virgin birth (Matthew 1:18-25) (Luke 1:26-35). This is why He is the only one who is sinless, (and therefore He is the only one who qualify’s to be man’s sinless Savior and Redeemer). No one other than Jesus Christ himself has had or ever will have a supernatural miraculous virgin birth.
The Birth of Jesus was a supernatural act of a Holy God! It can never be duplicated. King Jesus is unique above all others.
The bible says that all human beings on this earth are born into sin (Psalm 51:5). Well, Jesus was not the result of sexual intercourse between a husband and his wife. If He had been, his blood would have been tainted and defiled by sin. Why is this one may ask? This is because all are sinners this includes Joseph and Mary. Mary was a virgin and never had sex with any man before Jesus was born. This means she was pregnant with Jesus without performing any sexual relations of any kind. God himself is the One who placed Jesus His Son inside Mary’s womb.
(Genesis 3:14-15) (John 1:14-18) (John 3:16) (Hebrews 2:14) (Galatians 4:4-5) (Matthew 1:18-25) (Luke 1:26-35).
4. The Pre - existent Christ. This means Jesus existed as God before His incarnation. This means Jesus was God before He came into this earth in human flesh. This is because Jesus is not a created being, He always existed from eternity past, and He always existed because He’s God.
The Bible tells us that God became a man in the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus came down from Heaven. He did not come from this earth. The Holy Scriptures in (Colossians 1:15) tells us that He Jesus Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. Did you really understand that biblical truth? Wow what an amazing revelation from the Spirit of God!
He (Jesus) came from God the Father (John 1:14) (John 6:46) (John 7:29) (John 8:42) (John 13:1-3) (John 16:30-31) (John 17:8). This is because if you've seen Jesus you've seen God! For Jesus is God in the flesh (John 1:1-3, 14) (Philippians 2:6-11) (John 20:28) (Hebrews 1:8). Jesus said, "If you've seen me you've seen the Father (John 14:7-11)." Why? This is because He (Jesus Christ) is the visible image of the invisible God. Read (Colossians 1:15).
It’s very important to understand that Jesus was God before His incarnation, and it’s also just as important to understand that He Jesus came down from heaven (John 3:13) (John 6:38). Combining together these two biblical truths from Scripture you will then understand why and how Jesus alone is sinless. For example, why is Jesus sinless one may ask? He’s sinless because He is God in human flesh, and He is the epitome of glorious perfection.
For example, a person may ask how then Is Jesus sinless If he was born from a sinful woman named Mary? He is sinless because He did not come from Mary, He came from God the Father out of heaven. God the Father is the one by His Spirit that placed Jesus His Son into Mary’s womb. So that which was born out of her womb would be The Son of the most High God (Luke 1:26-35)! Jesus was/is sinless God wrapped up in human flesh!
Read (John 8:58) (John 17:5, 24) (John 20:28) (Hebrews. 1:8) (John 1:1-3; 14) (Colossians 1:15-19) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:19) (1 Peter 2:22) (1 Peter 3:18) (Hebrews 7:3, 25-27) (Revelation 22:13).
5. God became a man in the person of Jesus Christ. Yes, Jesus is God in the flesh. The bible so clearly teaches us that Jesus is 100% God and is 100% man at the same time. Jesus Christ is The Godman. This is a fact of Scripture that cannot be debated.
(John 1:1-3; 14) (John 20:28) (Philippians 2:6-11) (1 John 4:1-6) (Hebrews 1:8).
6. The sinless nature, life, and ministry of Christ. Jesus was sinless, is sinless, and always will be sinless. Jesus never sinned at any time. The bible clearly teaches us that Jesus Christ is the only human being who is God, divine, and sinless all at the same time.
Yes, Jesus Christ is sinless, blameless, perfect, holy, and set apart from sinners. Read (John 20:28) (Hebrews. 1:8) (John 1:1-3; 14) (John 8:46) (Colossians 1:15-19) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:19) (1 Peter 2:22) (1 Peter 3:18) (Hebrews 7:25-27).
7. The Fact and truth that Jesus Christ is The only human being who is equal to God.
(John 10:30) (Philippians 2:6-11) (John 1:1, 14) (John 5:23) (John 14:1-2, 6) (John 17:1-5) (Colossians 3:17) (Revelation 1:5-8).
8. The fact and truth that Jesus is The only way to God The Father, heaven, and eternal life.
(John 14:6) (Romans 6:23) (Romans 10:9-13) (John 5:24) (John 10:9) (John 11:25-26) (1 John 5:11-13) (Acts 4:12).
9. The fact and truth that Jesus is The One and only Mediator between God and men.
(1 Timothy 2:4-6).
10. Jesus is The One and Only Savior. This means Jesus is not a Savior this means He is The Savior. Jesus is not one of many saviors He is The Only Savior who saves sinners.
Not only is Jesus The One and Only Savior He is The One and Only Savior of the whole world.
(Acts 4:12) (Acts 10:43) (Acts 13:38) (John 3:16, 36) (John 4:42) (John 5:24) (John 6:40, 47) (John 8:24) (1 John 2:1-2) (1 John 4:14) (1 John 5:11-13) (1 Timothy 1:15) (Galatians 2:16).
11. Jesus died on a cross for all our sins, past, present, and future.
(Acts 2:22-24) (Acts 13:26-38) (Philippians 2:6-11) (Matthew 27) (Matthew 28:1-20) (Mark 16:1-20) (Luke 24:1-8, 45-48) (John 20:1-31) (1 Corinthians 15) (Acts 1:1-11) (John 1:29-35) (John 3:16-18) (1 John 1:7) (Acts 10:43) (John 19:30).
12. Jesus died on the cross for all of mankind. The bible is crystal clear that Jesus Christ has indeed died on the cross for the sins of the whole world.
(1 Timothy 2:3-6) (1 John 2:1-2) (1 Corinthians 15:21-22) (2 Corinthians 5:13-15) (Hebrews 2:9) (Titus 3:4-6) (1 Timothy 4:9-10) (Romans 5:6-8, 15-18) (Romans 10:1-4) (John 1:12, 29) (1 Peter 3:18) (John 3:16-18) (John 4:42) (John 8:24) (1 John 4:14) (Colossians 1:19-20) (2 Peter 3:9) (1 Timothy 1:15) (Romans 10:9-13).
13. Jesus was God on the cross.
(John 1:1-3, 14) (Philippians 2:6-11) (Hebrews 1:1-14) (Colossians 1:15-20).
14. Jesus voluntarily, literally, and physically died on the cross for our sins one time and one time only.
(Romans 6:9-10) (Hebrews 9:11-28) (Hebrews 10:1-18) (1 Peter 3:18).
15. The Holy Trinity of God is a fact of Scripture. The One true eternal God is Triune. He is God The Father, God The Son Jesus, and God The Holy Spirit.
These 3 co – eternal, and co - equal persons always existed as God and never at any time ceased to be God. Indeed, The One true Eternal God is triune.
In the bible God The Father is called God.
(Genesis 1:1; 1 Chronicles 29:10; Jeremiah 10:10; Matthew 6:9; Acts 1:7; Romans 8:14-15; 1 Corinthians 8:6; 1 Corinthians 15: 24; Ephesians 4:6).
In the bible God The Son Jesus Christ is called God.
(Luke 1:34-35) (John 1:1, 2, 14, 18) (John 20:28) (Colossians 1:15-20) (Romans 3:24-26) (Romans 8:3).
In the bible God The Holy Spirit is called God.
(John 3:3-8; 14:16-17; 16:7-11; 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 13; Ephesians 4:30; 5:18).
16. The fact and truth that the bible says we must be born again to be saved by God.
(John 3:3-7, 16-18) (John 8:24).
17. The gospel is that Jesus voluntarily, literally, and physically died on the cross for our sins, He was literally and physically buried, and He literally, physically, and bodily arose from the grave three days later.
(1 Peter 3:18) (Acts 2:22-24) (Acts 13:26-38) (Philippians 2:6-11) (Matthew 27) (Matthew 28:1-20) (Mark 16:1-20) (Luke 24:1-8, 45-48) (John 20:1-31) (1 Corinthians 15) (Acts 1:1-11).
18. When we believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ we are saved by the grace of God when we place our faith in Christ, and we are saved apart from all works.
Salvation in Christ is a free gift given by God unto to all men. Salvation is not by works nor can it ever be earned. We are not saved by God by what we do,
we are saved by God by what Christ already did on that cross at Calvary. To be saved we must believe in the finished work of Jesus Christ. Finished means we cannot add anything to his perfect sacrifice for us on that cross.
If we try to add anything to his finished work that is us saying that Jesus is not sufficient and powerful enough to save us by Himself. If we try to add anything to his finished work that is perverting the gospel of Jesus Christ
(Ephesians 2:8-9) (Romans 6:23) (Romans 4:5) (Titus 3:5) (Galatians 2:16, 21) (Romans 10:3-4) (Acts 13:38-39) (John 3:16, 36) (John 6:40, 47) (Acts 16:30-31) (Romans 3:25-26).
19. Faith in Jesus alone saves. The bible makes it crystal clear that whosoever believes On The Son shall never perish but have everlasting life. Once saved always saved is indeed true and biblical. The bible is clear that believers in Jesus Christ can never lose their eternal salvation.
(John 3:16-18) (John 5:24) (John 6:40, 47) (John 10:27-30) (Acts 16:30-31).
20. Whosoever calls upon the Name of The Lord Jesus to save them will be saved by God.
(Romans 10:13).
21. Mankind has a free will and whosoever believes in Jesus can be saved.
(John 3:14-18) (Romans 10:13).
22. You must understand that regeneration Does Not precede faith it comes after one places their faith in Jesus Christ.
(Acts 16:30-31) (John 1:12) (John 3:14-16) (John 6:40, 47) (John 20:31).
23. God has not predestined anyone to an eternal hell before they are born. The bible plainly teaches us that whosoever believes in Christ, whosoever calls on Christ,
and whosever wills let him come to Christ. The bible makes it crystal clear that you have a choice to come to and believe On Christ.
(Revelation 22:17) (Romans 10:13) (John 3:16) (John 8:37).
24. You must understand that all our righteousness in it of ourselves are as filthy rags. The bible teaches us that no one is righteous in it of ourselves.
The bible teaches us we have no righteousness of our own. Moreover, the bible so plainly teaches us that we cannot save ourselves from our own sinful condition.
The bible teaches us that all humans on earth are born into sin, all human hearts are deceitful and desperately wicked, and all humans on earth are sinners.
Because all these bible truths are indeed true this is why we need The Divine Christ to save us.
(Psalm 51:5) (Jeremiah 17:9) (Isaiah 64:6) (Romans 3:10-31) (Job 4:17) (Ephesians 2:1-3) (Philippians 2:9) (Galatians 2:16, 21) (John 3:3-7) (1 Timothy 1:15).
25. Jesus was sinless, is sinless, and always will be sinless, therefore he never was nor ever needed to be born again.
(John 1:29-36) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:18-19) (1 Peter 2:22) (2 Corinthians 5:21) (Hebrews 4:15) (Isaiah 53:9) (John 8:29) (Luke 1:35) (Matthew 1:18-25) (John 8:46).
26. Jesus never ceased to be God at any time nor did he ever at any time lay his divinity aside.
(John 8:58) (John 20:28) (Hebrews. 1:8) (John 1:1-3; 14) (Colossians 1:15-19) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:19) (1 Peter 2:22) (1 Peter 3:18) (Hebrews 7:25-27).
27. Jesus never at any time broke any of Gods laws. The bible clearly teaches us that Jesus is sinless and that He fulfilled the whole law.
(Matthew 5:17) (Romans 10:4) (John 1:29-36) (John 8:46) (1 John 3:5) (1 Peter 1:18-19) (1 Peter 2:22) (2 Corinthians 5:21) (Hebrews 4:15) (Isaiah 53:9) (John 8:29) (Luke 1:35) (Matthew 1:18-25).
28. Jesus Christ should be and must be Worshipped as God.
(Matthew 2:11) (Matthew 14:33) (Matthew 28:9, 17) (John 9:38) (Luke 24:45-52) (John 20:24-31) (Hebrews 1:5-6) (John 5:23) (John 14:6) (John 20:28) (Revelation 19:10).
29. Jesus Christ is the only one who has been given the authority by God The Father to forgive you of your sins.
(Matthew 9:6) (Acts 10:43) (Acts 13:38) (1 John 2:12) (John 5:24) (John 14:6) (Matthew 28:17-19).
30. Jesus Christ is the only one who can take away your sins.
(John 1:29-36).
31. Universalism is not true. Everyone will not be saved by God and everyone is not going to heaven.
(John 8:24) (John 14:6) (1 Timothy 2:4-6) (Acts 4:12) (Matthew 23:13-33) (Luke 16:19-31) (Matthew 13:42,50) (Matthew 25:41) (Revelation 20:15) (Revelation 21:8).
32. Everyone is not a child of God. We are not all God’s children.
(Ephesians 2:1-3) (Matthew 23:13-33) (John 8:24) (Acts 4:12) (John 8:44) (1 John 3:10-24) (1 John 5:19) (Romans 8:9).
33. Only those who believe in the death, burial, and bodily resurrection of Christ Jesus are born again and thus are the true children of God.
This means if you do not believe in the biblical Jesus you are not born again and If you are not born again you are not a child of God.
(Galatians 3:26) (John 1:12) (John 3:3-7) (1 John 5:1) (Romans 8:14, 29).
34. There is a real literal eternal place called hell that exists.
(Luke 16:19-31) (Matthew 13:42,50) (Matthew 25:41) (Revelation 20:15) (Revelation 21:8).
35. The bible clearly teaches us that no one will be saved by God apart from faith in Christ. Annihilationism is not true. After death all unbelievers in Christ will go to this literal eternal place called hell
where they will be consciously tormented forever in the lake of fire for their unbelief in The Holy Son of God Jesus Christ.
(John 3:18, 36) (John 8:24) (Luke 16:19-31) (Matthew 13:42,50) (Matthew 25:41) (Revelation 20:15) (Revelation 21:8).
36. God is Love and He loves all people.
(John 3:16) (1 John 4:9-10).
37. God wants all men to be saved and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
(1 Timothy 2:4-6).
38. God wants all men to come to repentance by believing in His Son Jesus. Yes, this is His will and desire for all men.
(John 3:16, 36) (John 6:40, 47) (2 Peter 3:9) (Luke 24:45-47).
39. God makes salvation available to all men. That is everyone has the opportunity to be saved by God through Christ. However unfortunately the bible makes it crystal clear that everyone will not be saved.
And everyone will not be saved because everyone will not trust and believe in Jesus Christ Gods Holy Son.
(John 3:16-18, 36) (John 8:24).
40. We have dual divine intercessors in God The Son Jesus and God The Holy Spirit interceding for us on our behalf. These are the only intercessors the bible mentions for the believer in Christ.
And furthermore, they are the only intercessors we need. For who can intercede for us better than God can?
This dual intercession of God keeps the believer secure in Christ. This dual intercession of God on our behalf is God proving to us yet again that we as believers in Christ are secure in him and can never lose our salvation (Romans 8:26-27, 34). Again, I say the bible only mentions God The Son Jesus and God The Holy Spirit as being our only divine intercessors.
41. God is sovereign, infinitely holy, infinitely righteous, perfect, faithful, truthful and true, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, immutable, wrathful and love.
God is….
Sovereign
(Romans 9:1-25) (Psalm 115:3) (Proverbs 16:9) (Romans 8:28) (Genesis 50:20) (Isaiah 40:23) (John 19:11) (2 Chronicles 20:6) (Zechariah 4:6).

Omniscient – All knowing
(Psalm 44:21) (Psalm 139:1-4) (Psalm 147:4-5) (Job 34:21-23) (1 John 3:20) (Matthew 10:30) (Hebrews 4:13) (Isaiah 40:28) (Isaiah 46:9-10) (1 Kings 8:39).

Wrathful
(Romans 1:16-18) (Ephesians 5:6) (Romans 2:5) (John 3:36) (Revelation 14:10-11) (Proverbs 11:4) (Psalm 2:12) (Psalm 7:11) (Revelation 21:8) (2 Thessalonians 1:7-9).
Love
(John 3:16) (1 John 4:9-10) (Ephesians 4:9-10) (Exodus 34:6-7).
42. Apart from faith in Jesus it’s impossible for a sinful unregenerate man to please God or to be saved by God.
(John 8:24) (John 3:18, 36) (Hebrews 11:6) (2 Thessalonians 1:7-9) (Revelation 21:8) .
43. It is impossible for God to lie.
(Hebrews 6:18).
44. Nothing is impossible with God.
(Matthew 19:26).
45. God is a God of faith and He alone is the justifier of sinful men. When one believes in the gospel of Jesus Christ, God declares that believer justified (declares him righteous) in his sight this is now and forevermore.
(Galatians 2:16) (Galatians 3:24) (Romans 4:5) (Philippians 3:9) (Genesis 15:6) (Romans 3:23-24, 28) (Romans 5:1) (Romans 1:17).
46. Jesus is our Holy Judge and will be our only Holy Judge on judgement day.
(Acts 10:38-42) (2 Corinthians 5:10) (John 5:22, 27, 30) (John 8:26) (John 9:39) (John 12:47-48) (Acts 17:30-31) (Matthew 19:28) (Luke 22:30) (Romans 2:16) (Romans 14:10) (2 Timothy 4:8) (Revelation 19:11).
47. Jesus is The King of all Kings and He is The Lord of all lords.
(1 Timothy 6:15) (Revelation 1:5) (Revelation 17:14) (Revelation 19:11-16) (Deuteronomy 10:17) (Psalm 136:3).
48. Without the shedding of Christ blood on the cross for us there is no remission of sins. What this means is this: God would never forgive our sins nor take them away apart from the shedding of Jesus’ blood on the cross. Therefore, this means Jesus’ perfect sacrifice and him shedding his blood on the cross for us was necessary and essential (from Gods perspective) for our salvation to be provided and won for us.
(John 8:24) (Hebrews 9:22).
49. Baptism in water is not essential for salvation only faith in Jesus is essential for salvation.
(Acts 16:30-31) (John 3:14-18, 36) (John 6:40, 47) (John 20:31) (1 John 5:11-13) (Luke 7:50) (Galatians 2:16) (Romans 4:5) (Luke 19:1-10) (Luke 23:32-43).
50. Speaking in tongues is not essential for salvation only faith in Jesus is essential for salvation. The Bible is crystal clear that not every believer will speak in tongues.
(1 Corinthians 12) (1 Corinthians 14) (Acts 16:30-31) (John 3:14-18, 36) (John 6:40, 47) (John 20:31) (1 John 5:11-13) (Luke 7:50) (Galatians 2:16) (Romans 4:5) (Luke 19:1-10) (Luke 23:32-43).
51. Speaking in tongues is not evidence that you are saved. Faith in Jesus alone is the only way God will save a sinful man and it is faith alone in Jesus that will grant him everlasting life. The bible makes it crystal clear that the very moment you believe in Jesus Christ The Son of God you have everlasting life and shall never perish.
(1 Corinthians 12) (Acts 16:30-31) (John 3:14-18, 36) (John 6:40, 47) (John 20:31) (1 John 5:11-13) (Luke 7:50) (Galatians 2:16) (Romans 4:5) (Luke 19:1-10) (Luke 23:32-43).
52. After death you will not have another chance for salvation or another chance to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ that saves sinful men. Once you die your eternal fate is sealed forever. If you genuinely believed in Christ, you will go to heaven and have everlasting life. However, if you didn’t believe in Christ you will not go to heaven you will go to an eternal hell forevermore.
(Luke 16:19-31) (Hebrews 9:27) (John 8:24) (Revelation 21:8).
53. Salvation is found in no other name but the name of Jesus. This is God’s way of proving to the whole universe that Jesus His Son is unique and is greater than all others. This is because everyone must come to Jesus to be saved by God.
(Acts 4:12) (John 20:31) (1 John 5:11-13) (Acts 10:43) (Acts 13:38) (John 10:9) (John 14:6).
54. God The Father has elevated His Son Jesus to the place of Highest honor seated at his right-hand side. This is God proving to the whole universe that Jesus His Son is unique and is greater than all others.
(Philippians 2:6-11) (Mark 12:36) (Luke 22:69) (Acts 7:55-56) (Romans 8:34) (Ephesians 1:20-21) (Colossians 3:1) (Hebrews 1:3) (Hebrews 8:1) (Hebrews 10:12) (Hebrews 12:2) (1 Peter 3:22).
55. Jesus’ Name is above every other name, title, and authority in this age and in the age to come. Jesus’ Name is Superior than all angels. God The Father tells all angels and everyone else for that matter to worship Jesus His Son. Jesus’ name is above all angels, all living created creatures in heaven, all humans, and all demons. This is God proving to the whole universe that Jesus His Son is unique and is greater than all others.
(Philippians 2:6-11) (Hebrews 1:1-14) (1 Peter 3:22 ) (Ephesians 1:9-10, 20-21).
56. Every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that Christ Jesus is Lord to the glory of God The Father. This is God proving to the whole universe that Jesus His Son is unique and is greater than all others.
(Philippians 2:-9-11).
57. Jesus is The only one in the whole universe who is worthy to open The Heavenly Holy Scroll and it’s seven seals in The book of Revelation. This proves Christ is God and is equal to God The Father, thus proves that he’s worthy of worship. Christ is God and thus is greater than all created beings. All created beings whether seen or unseen must bow and will bow to God’s Son The Lord Jesus Christ. This is God proving to the whole universe that Jesus His Son is unique and is greater than all others.
(Revelation 5:5-14).
58. True biblical repentance when it comes to salvation means to believe On Christ. When you believe On Christ for your salvation, biblically speaking you have just repented. You are repenting of your unbelief in The Savior Jesus to now believing in Him. In other words you are turning from (you are forsaking) whatever you were originally putting your trust in to save you (example being a good person, keeping the law of Moses etc.) to now trusting and believing in Christ alone to save you.
59. Born again believers in Jesus Christ their names can never be blotted out of the Lambs Book of Life. The bible is clear that If you are a true born-again believer in Jesus Christ you can never lose your eternal salvation thus your name can never ever be blotted out of The Lambs Book of Life. Read (Romans 6:23) (Romans 8:1) (Psalm 103:10-12) (Isaiah 43:25) (Revelation 3:5) (1 John 5:4) (Romans 8:31-39) (Philippians 3:9) (John 6:37) (Matthew 28:20) (Hebrews 13:5) (Hebrews 7:25-27). The bible makes it so clear that faith in Jesus alone saves. The bible makes it crystal clear that whosoever believes On The Son shall never perish but have everlasting life. Once saved always saved is indeed true and biblical. The bible is clear that true born-again believers in Jesus Christ currently have everlasting life and can never lose their eternal salvation never.
(John 3:14-18) (John 5:24) (John 6:40, 47) (John 7:50) (John 10:27-30) (John 20:31) (Acts 16:30-31) (1 John 5:11-13).
60. The Second Coming of Christ
We believe in Jesus' soon and literal imminent return to this physical earth for the Second Time. This is a biblical fact and truth that cannot be debated. That is the Holy Scriptures are clear on this issue. Jesus is indeed returning to this physical earth again a Second Time. Are you ready to meet him? Some teach heresies that Jesus already physically returned in the 1900's. This is false and nothing could be further from the truth. The bible plainly teaches that Jesus will return to this earth a second time literally, visibly, and physically with his saints (that is with His Church). This time He will come to judge the earth and to rule and reign from the throne of David. He will establish His Messianic kingdom for a thousand years on the earth. Read (Matthew 24:30) (Matthew 26:64) (Acts 1:11) (Daniel 7:13-14) (1 Corinthians 1:6-8) (1 Corinthians 15:23) (1 Thessalonians 3:13) (James 5:7-8) (1 John 2:28) (1 Thessalonians 5:23) (Matthew 25:31) (Luke 1:31-33) (Acts 2:29-30) (Revelation 20:1-6).
