The Essential Truths of the Gospel:
The Sufficiency & Supremacy of Scripture
We tremble at God’s Word (Isaiah 66:2)
We study God’s Word to know it, to practice it, and to teach it (Ezra 7:10)
It is breathed out by God and fully useful (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
The Total Corruption of Human Nature
We were dead, and by nature, children of wrath. He regenerated us and granted us faith and repentance (Ephesians 2:1-5).
Not by the will of the flesh or the will of man (John 1:12-13).

Christ’s Death on the Cross is the Only Sacrifice for Sin
Faith is the only way (Romans 3).
We believe in God alone by faith – His sacrificial death on the cross covers us.
Christ is the perfect/undefiled sacrifice.
Salvation is solely wrought by God with no admixture of human works.
