The Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God to man. The New Testament serves as the foundation of the doctrine of the Apostolic Christian Church. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1)

There is one eternal God, the Creator of all things. “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.”  (Colossians 1:16-17)

 Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was begotten by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life. “Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” (Matthew 1:23)

 Jesus Christ gave His life on Calvary’s cross and His precious blood was shed as a ransom for all. He was buried, and He rose again the third day for our justification. “Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.”  (Romans 4:25)

Faith in Christ’s redemptive work on Calvary which results in repentance is the beginning of a true Christian life. The fruits of repentance are a humble and contrite heart, prayer, godly sorrow, confession to God in the presence of man, forsaking of all sin, restitution, and a forgiving spirit. “And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?  Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance.” (Matthew 3:16-18)

A true conversion is evidenced by a spiritual rebirth, restoration of peace with God and man, the Fruit of the Spirit, and obedience to God’s Word. “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” (1 Peter 1:23)
