is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He exists eternally in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
There is one God in three persons.
is the son of God who lived a sinless human life and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate his power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven’s glory and will return to earth again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make us aware of our need for Jesus Christ.

is the body of Christ on earth. It exists to communicate the good news of new life in Jesus Christ to the world, to teach his followers to obey his teachings, and to equip his followers for ministry. The church is made up of those who have placed their faith in Christ.

Brothers… I do not consider that I have attained…But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. –Philippians 3:13-14
