The Bible teaches that humanity was created by a personal God, not through evolution. God designed us to love, serve, and enjoy eternal fellowship with Him. The Bible reveals that Jesus Christ created all things (John 1:3: “All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made” | Colossians 1:16: “For by Him all things were created”).

As Creator, He owns and rules over everything (Psalm103:19: “The Lord has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all”). Therefore, we owe Him complete allegiance, obedience, and worship.

God is perfectly holy and without sin (Isaiah 6:3: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts”). He cannot tolerate or condone evil (James 1:13: “God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone”). Because of His holiness, God calls us to be holy as well (1 Peter 1:16: “Be holy, for I am holy”).

God’s justice and holiness require that sin be punished by eternal death and separation from God (Ezekiel 18:4: “The soul who sins shall die”; Romans 6:23: “For the wages of sin is death”). Behavioural changes alone cannot resolve our sin problem or remove its eternal consequences.

God offers us the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ’s death on the cross and subsequent resurrection. (Romans 10:9: “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved”).  

God’s justice demands death for sin, but His love provided a Saviour. Jesus died for sinners, satisfying God’s justice (1 Peter 3:1: “Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God”).

His sinless life fulfilled God’s holy standards (2 Corinthians 5:21: “He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him”).

Through faith in Christ, believers receive forgiveness and salvation (Romans 3:26: “That He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus”).

Faith involves repentance, empowered by the Holy Spirit, who indwells believers. Repentance means agreeing with God about your sin, confessing it, and choosing to turn from it (Luke 13:3, 5: “Unless you repent you will all likewise perish”). It includes pursuing Christ (John 17:3: “This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent”) and obeying Him (1 John 2:3: “By this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments”).

Merely knowing about Jesus is insufficient, as even demons believe in God but do not obey Him (James 2:19: “Even the demons believe—and tremble!”).

Faith that saves is enabled by the Holy Spirit, producing obedience and good works (Ephesians 2:10: “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works”).
