What Are The Essentials Of Scripture? 

The Deity of Christ -Jesus said, "I and the Father are One." Did he mean one in purpose or is Jesus literally claiming to be God? And if he is, are there legitimate reasons to accept this claim?

Christians and Belief in Jesus Christ-The Bible tells us that everyone who believes in Jesus is a Christian. But what does belief in Jesus really mean?

The Incarnation-The term incarnation is of Latin origin, and it means "becoming in flesh." While the word incarnation is not contained within Scripture, the doctrine of the Incarnation certainly does convey scriptural truth.

The Kenosis of Christ -It's popular today to say that Jesus in the Incarnation was fully man, but certainly not fully God. In discussing the doctrine of the Incarnation (God the Son in human flesh), Philippians 2:7 says that Jesus "emptied Himself."

The Evidence for Christ's Resurrection-As Paul noted in 1 Corinthians 15:14, if Christ did not rise from the dead then our preaching and our faith are useless. We must therefore be prepared to demonstrate that Christ's resurrection was an event that occurred in space and time — that it was in fact historical, and not mythological (cf. 2 Pet. 1:16).

I Believe In The Resurrection of the Flesh -Down through the centuries orthodox Christians have always confessed with the Apostles' Creed: "I believe...in the resurrection of the flesh." This affirmation of faith in the believer's resurrection is grounded in faith in Christ's resurrection.

About TheTrinity-Is The Trinity Biblical?
The Trinity is a basic doctrine of orthodox Christianity. Yet the word "Trinity" is not found anywhere in the Bible. Is the doctrine of the Trinity really biblical?

The Essentials of Christianity? The authority of Scripture-Affirm the existence of a triune God-Jesus Christ - Who is fully God and fully man.

What I Believe-It is my commitment to faithfully uphold the revealed truths of Holy Scripture. I therefore commit myself to the following summary statement of the vital teachings of Scripture and the Christian faith.

About God the Father? The Attributes of God Life Magazine recently asked the provocative question: "WHO IS GOD?" Many answers have been given throughout the ages to reply to this question — but the real answer comes from the Bible.
 
The Biblical Basis of the Doctrine of the Trinity-The Bible teaches that "the faith" (which would include the nature of the object of faith, namely God) was "delivered once for all to the saints" (Jude 3). Therefore any religious movement that claims to have restored the true doctrine of God through any kind of revelation is unbiblical.

Loving The Trinity-The Trinity should be the object of our love, for the doctrine expresses the very heart and soul of Scripture’s message of redemption. If we wish to have a solid foundation for our faith, we need to learn why this doctrine is central and what it really expresses. We must also be able to recognize denials of the Trinity, whether blatant or subtle, and we must call Christian leaders to account when they allow this central truth of the faith to be undermined and relegated to “debatable” status.
