God
God is a Person who has revealed Himself as a Trinity of, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit--three Persons and yet one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 1 Corinthians 8:6).
Bible
The Bible, including both the Old and New Testaments is a divine revelation, written by individual men, and divinely inspired by God through the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21). Love the Word.com recommends ONLY the following Bibles for reading and study: Authorized King James Version (KJV) or the New King James Version (NKJV).
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God and left His place in Heaven to come to earth to reconcile man to God through the taking of man's sin upon the cross unto death. Being conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, He died upon the cross as a substitute sacrifice for the sin of those who believe on Him and repent of their sins, and from death at the cross, He arose from the dead in the body in which He was crucified; He ascended into heaven in that body glorified, where He is now our interceding High Priest and will come again personally and visibly to take His kingdom and will judge the lost (Colossians 1:15; Philippians 2:5-8; Matthew 1:18-25; 1 Peter 2:24-25; Luke 24; Hebrews 4:14-16; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18; Matthew 25:31-46; Revelation 11:15-17; 20:4-6, 11-15).
Man
Man was created in the image of God but disobeyed God and fell into sin, and in that sense, is lost from birth as a fleshly descendent of Adam and this is true of all men. Moreover, except a man repent of his sin through Jesus Christ and be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. In addition, salvation is by grace through faith in Christ who His own self bare our sins in His own body at Calvary, rewarding man everlasting life in Heaven (Genesis 1:26-27; Romans 3:10, 23; John 3:3; Acts 13:38-39; John 3:16; Matthew 25:46; 2 Corinthians 5:1; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10).
Church
The Church is a body of believers baptized by the Holy Spirit into one body whose unified mission is to witness gospel message of Salvation through Christ Jesus among all nations. This body of believers will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air when He appears Himself in person to set up His kingdom (Acts 2:41; 15:13-17; Ephesians 1:3-6; 1 Corinthians 12:12-13; Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:6-8; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18).
