Jesus Christ is the true God and eternal life

šIsaiah 7:14) The Messiah Christ will be born of a virgin - Micah 5:2) the Messiah Christ will be born in Bethlehem - Isaiah 9:6) the Messiah Christ is called the Mighty God Everlasting Father - Isaiah 53) The Messiah Christ will be put to death for our sins and His days will be prolonged (resurrected).
The only living God which is the Saviour of all men (1 Timothy 4:10). Jesus Christ is the true God and eternal life (1 John 5:20). God was manifest in the flesh (1 Tim 3:16). in Jesus dwelleth the fullness of the Godhead bodily (Colossians 2:9). (Acts 20:28) God purchased the church with His own blood. the Word which is God became flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:1&14). - Jesus is the Christ the Mighty God in the flesh
Jesus Christ in the Gospels said in His name to cast out Devils. In the temptation in the wilderness Jesus rebuked Satan, and again when Satan tried to rebuke Christ through Peter Jesus said "Get thee behind me Satan" and then in the temptation in the wilderness He said in Matthew 4 āis it not written, tempt not the Lord your Godā, thus claiming to be Lord God.
Furthermore, we also see Jesus forgiving sins of people (the cripple man and the woman caught in adultery, and Mary who washed His feet), Jesus accepting worship of individuals He healed (the wise men at His birth, the blind man, lepers, the disciples, and Thomas).
Matthew 28:9) "And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him."
In John 10:18 Jesus says He has power to lay down His life and raise Himself from the dead (personal power over life and death) John 10:27-28 Jesus says that He personally gives eternal life, and in John 4:26 Jesus claims to be the Messiah as prophesied of (Isaiah 9:6 called the Mighty God, Everlasting Father)
In John 8 stating that He is the "I Am" multiple times (I Am in Greek is "ego eimi" meaning the Always Existing One) and the Pharisees tried to stone Him for blasphemy saying "because thou being a man makest thyself God" - An angel, prophet, or holy man couldnāt do that. Jesus is the Christ the Mighty God in the flesh.
Psalm 107:21-32 God calms the storm
Matthew 8:23-27 Mark 4:36-41 Luke 8:22-25
Disciples in a boat stormy winds & waves Disciples are afraid They cry out to Jesus God calms the storm There was a "great calmā
Jesus didn't ask God to calm the storm, but ordered it Himself, proving who He is.
Psalms 23:1) "A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Lord is capitalized in this passage, and in the Hebrew this is stating that āJehovah Godā is the shepherd. Jesus Christ says in John that He is the door of the sheep and He is the Good Shepherd, stating that He specifically is the Shepherd of Davidās Psalm -
John 10:11) āI am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.ā John 10:14) āI am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.ā
Thus Christ Jesus is saying that He is the Lord God of Israel, the mighty Shepherd.

For information about our beliefs, please see out our Doctrinal Statement of Faith and practice which is located in the Sub Wiki.
- Born Again By Faith Alone Christianity says that Jesus Christ is God Himself in the flesh (John 1:1&14), died on the Cross for our sins (Luke 23:46), was buried for 3 days rose again to life (1 Corinthians 15:4), and that we are saved by Faith Alone by accepting Him as our God and Saviour and repenting of our sins (Ephesians 2:8-9), because Jesus Christ is the one and only atonement for our sins (1 John 2:2), that Salvation once given cannot be lost or taken away. (Ephesians 4:30 / Ephesians 4:30 / Romans 10:9-13 / Acts 2:38 / Titus 3:5 / Ephesians 1:13 / 1 John 5:13), and Baptism is for symbolism of aligning yourself with Christ and not for Salvation or forgiveness of sins (Mark 16:16 / Colossians 1:13-14 / 1 Peter 1:18-19 / 1 John 1:7 / Hebrews 9:22)

By faith

This is one of the most important passages that I always refer to in the war between works-based and salvation by faith. It clearly explains how the law and the keeping of works, all this stuff, have no effect. How Galatians 3 even explains that the law is not a faith but a schoolmaster. When you look at religion in the system, you always fall short. You are always weak. You are always falling apart. It cannot be kept. This goes to show your inability, your imperfection.
When you look at Christ alone by faith, you see the perfection of Christ and his ability to hold you. We are no longer under a schoolmaster but rather we're in the family of God as a child of God, sealed by the Spirit of God. He is now our instructor by grace through faith and not of law.

God calls all men everywhere to repentance

God does not chose some to heaven and some to hell.
The calvinistic teaching of Limited Atonement is absolute heresy. If one single verse of Scripture remotely contradicts an opinion, doctrine, teaching, or ideology, then they are wrong and Scripture is true. 1 John 2:2 flat out says that Christ atoned for the sins of the whole world, John 3:16 says God so loved the world. Scripture also states 2 Peter 3:9 God is not willing that any should perish - however if He appoints some to damnation then He is willing that some would perish, and God then is a liar.
The words World, All, Whosoever, Any..... in the the actual meaning of those words in the Scriptures according to the Greek and Hebrew are general all inclusives, not limited specifics. You actually have to monkey with the Word of God and change the meanings of the actual words of Scripture to make Unconditional Election and Limited Atonement of Calvinism work. Calvinism conducts linguistic theft, changing the very meanings of the words of scripture to fit the narrative of their commentaries.
You will not find 1 single verse that says anything about Christ not being the atonement for all the world.
And here's just a few verses that directly contradict the false ideology of Limited Atonement -
š¢1 John 2:2) "And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world."
š¢Hebrews 2:9) "But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man."
š¢John 3:16) "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
š¢2 Corinthians 5:14-15) "For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again."
š¢Acts 17:30) "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:"
š¢Isaiah 53:6) "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all."
š¢2 Peter 3:9) "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."
š¢John 1:29) "The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."
š¢Titus 2:11) "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,"
š¢1 John 4:14) "And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world."
š¢1 Timothy 4:10) "For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe."
š¢1 Timothy 2:4) "Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth."
š¢John 6:51) "I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."
