God the Holy Spirit - The third part of the Triune God. The Holy Spirit is with all Christians in the world today. He comforts, convicts, guides, and teaches.

The Bible - is the guide for a Christian’s life. It is God-breathed and without error.

Sin - All people are born sinful into a fallen world. All evil comes from the enemy, Satan.

Salvation – Salvation is through God’s grace and not by good works. We cannot earn our salvation. Salvation comes only through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. All we must do is repent of our sins, accept the gift Jesus has given us and believe in his death and resurrection through faith.

What makes Christianity different

from other religions?

Many religions point to an after-life or heaven, but only Christianity says you don’t need to “earn” your way into heaven by what you do or who you are. Christianity says Jesus paid the price for you to go to heaven even though you are a sinner because he loves you so much and knew you would never be able to live a perfect life and “earn” your way. All you have to do is believe that Jesus died to save you from your sins and that three days later he conquered death through his resurrection from the grave. This is such GOOD NEWS!
