... although God's invisible attributes and power are clearly seen in all that he has created, he chose to reveal his specific will in the revelation of his Law and Gospel.
... God caused this revelation to be written down by holy men who were moved along by the Holy Spirit.
This written record is the Scriptures, the sixty-six books of the Bible, inerrant in its original autographs and authoritative in all its teaching.
... in one infinite, perfect, holy, Sovereign God; who is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit; three persons, one essence, co-equal and co-eternal.
... God created all things good, fashioning mankind in his own image and giving to the man and woman the freedom and opportunity of choice.
... that with their freedom our first parents rebelled against God, bringing upon themselves and their posterity all of the miseries of sin and death.
... that God did not leave all mankind in sin, but chose to pardon and regenerate those who would believe in the Redeemer whom he would send.
... that in the virgin’s womb, the eternal Son of God took to himself a human nature and body without laying aside his divinity, so that he is both truly human and truly God.
... that by unparalleled power, and sinless perfection Jesus showed himself to be God’s
chosen Redeemer.
... that in his passion, which culminated in his death on a Roman cross, Jesus offered to the Father the only acceptable sacrifice for sin.
... that being blameless, death could not keep him, so that on the third day God raised him up bodily, after which he appeared to the apostles and to many other witnesses.
... after commissioning his apostles, Jesus ascended bodily to the throne of heaven to reign as Lord and King over all. At his request, the Father poured out the Holy Spirit on the church.
... the message given to the church is that faith in Christ alone can save men from God’s just judgment. There is salvation in no other name.
... under the Son’s heavenly reign, his enemies are being made his footstool, while through the Gospel and the Spirit, his church is making disciples of the nations.
... at the end of the age, the Lord will come again to bring final judgment upon all, including Satan and the fallen angels. He will resurrect the dead. Those who loved his appearing will be raised to eternal life, all others to eternal death.
... that when all things have been subjected to Christ's perfect rule, he will submit everything to the heavenly Father.
