| − | ==God==
| |
| − | God is simultaneously immanent and removed. He is omnipotent: He created everything that is and there is nothing which, by strength, He could not destroy. He is onmiscient: He is everywhere, observing everything and is always able to intervene. He is all-knowing: His knowledge pierces every soul. He is holy: unable and unwilling to sin. God is mysterious: His power, knowledge, wisdom, holiness, and infinite Being transcends human understanding.
| |
| − | | |
| − | However, He is love: He lay down His incarnate life for humankind. He is historical: He intervened on earth for our betterment.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Jesus==
| |
| − | Jesus, the Son of God, the mystery of God dwelling in flesh, lived, died, rose, and ascended. His death and resurrection was a complete atonement for humanity's sins for those who accept.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==The Bible==
| |
| − | The Bible was written by men with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and makes people "wise for salvation" and is "useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness." Its contents are every book of the Protestant canon (at least). Every verse is of Truth.
| |
| − | | |
| − | It must be understood in regards to the context of its human writers. Therefore, some verses are literal, some are figurative, some depend on culture, some on human personality. The Bible was written as a story of God's redemption of us and our response. Therefore, human's words and deeds are sometimes ideal, sometimes merely historical.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Truth==
| |
| − | Truth comes many sources: the Bible, reason, experience, emotions, tradition, Creation, and people. However, the interpretation of these sources is always subject to human imperfection. God requires humility in understanding His Truth. "Fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom." (Proverbs 9:10)
