The Scriptures

• We believe the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired, and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instruction.

• Reference Scriptures: John 4:23-24; Matthew 28:19

The Fall of Man

• Reference Scripture: Genesis 1:27, 3:6-24; Romans 5:19

• Salvation includes regeneration, sanctification and glorification.

• Reference Scriptures: Mark 1:14-15; John 16:18

• Reference Scriptures: 1 Peter 1:2; I Thessalonians 5:23-24

The Resurrection

• We believe that the Scriptures clearly teach that Jesus rose from the dead. He now exists in His glorified body at God's right hand.
• There will be a resurrection of the righteous and the wicked.
• The bodies of the righteous will conform to the glorious spiritual body of Jesus Christ.
• Reference Scriptures: Matthew 20:17-19, 28:6-7; John 5:28-29

The Gospel Church
