1) God created all that is seen and unseen
Christians believe that God is the creator of all people,the world, the
universe,and everything seen and unseen.This is based on various Bible
passages,including the Bible's book of Genesis.

2) Jesus is the Son of God and is One with God
Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God,that He is one with God,
and that He was sent here for our salvation.In John 10:30 (English-NIV),
the Apostle John quotes Jesus as saying,"I and the Father are one."

3) Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary
Christians believe that Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit of God
and born through the Virgin Mary. As explained in Matthew 1:18
(English-NIV), "This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His
mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came
together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit."

4) Jesus suffered and was crucified
Jesus suffered for our sins and was crucified.As explained in Matthew
27:23-56 (English-NIV), Jesus was falsely accused of being an
anti-government rebel.He was brought to Pontius Pilate to be
crucified.He was mocked,beaten,taunted and crucified.

5) Jesus died and was buried
Jesus died after being crucified.He was buried in a tomb owned by a man
named Joseph of Arimathea,who was a follower of Jesus.In Matthew
27:57-60 (English-NIV), the Bible says, "As evening approached,there
came a rich man from Arimathea,named Joseph, who had himself become a
disciple of Jesus.Going to Pilate,he asked for Jesus' body,and Pilate
ordered that it be given to him.Joseph took the body,wrapped it in a
clean linen cloth, and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut out
of the rock.He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb
and went away."

6) Jesus rose again (the Resurrection)
Jesus was resurrected,which means that He died, but was brought back to
life again. You can read more about the resurrection in the New
Testament book of John, chapter 20.People who believe in Jesus will also
be resurrected after they die, and brought into the kingdom of Heaven.

7) Jesus ascended into Heaven
Jesus ascended into Heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the
Father. This happened after Jesus was resurrected.We too will go to
Heaven,but only through faith in Jesus Christ.As explained in Mark
16:19-20 (English-NIV): "After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was
taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.Then the
disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with
them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it."

8) Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead
Jesus will return again to judge the living and the dead,and to
establish a kingdom that will have no end. In Matthew 24:30-31
(English-NIV),Jesus is quoted as saying that He will return during the
last days of man: "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear
in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see
the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great
glory.And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call,and they will
gather his elect from the four winds,from one end of the heavens to the
other."

9) People who repent their sins will be forgiven
People are "saved" and forgiven if they confess their sins and confess
their belief in the resurrection of Jesus. As explained in Romans
10:9-10 (English-NIV),"That if you confess with your mouth,"Jesus is
Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,you
will be saved.For it is with your heart that you believe and are
justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved."

10) Anyone can have salvation
All people may receive salvation in the name of Jesus Christ.In Romans
10:12 (English-NIV),for example,it says: "For there is no difference
between Jew and Gentile,the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses
all who call on him…"

John 3:16 (NIV):
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Great Post!

AHMEN!!

yes.

"Praise the Lord"

Very Good post My Brother.

PRAISE GOD. Love the post.

Amen

Great post, but I am gonna take this further and step right into the
midle of the battle just like Gen. Pace has done. I believe in God and
I believe the bible. So do many other people, or at least so they say. I
want to know how people can be against adultery, stealing, murder,
bearing false witness, but yet homosexuality to these people is ok. I
know the afore mentioned are part of the ten commandments and
homosexuality technically isn't in that category but the Gd has spoken
against it. It's against the laws of nature and God is nature. So how
can all these hypocrites think so badly of these other sins and not
homosexuality?

and just for those that do not like mine or Gen. Peter Pace's comment,
here is a survey apparently the majority speaks that his comments must
not be out of place

Do you think Gen. Pace should apologize for calling homosexuality
immoral? * 20809 responses
