GOD'S PROVISION FOR SIN
We are convinced from the Word of God that all of mankind outside of Christ is spiritually dead and stands condemned before God. Man is lost, blind and hell-bound. But God, in His infinite mercy, has made provision whereby any person can know the forgiveness of all his or her sins.
We believe that the salvation of sinners is wholly of grace, through the voluntary sacrifice of the Son of God on the cross, Who by the appointment of the Father freely took upon Him our human nature, yet completely without sin, honored the Father by His perfect obedience, and by His death made a full and substitutionary provision for our sins, the Just dying for the unjust as He bore our sins in His own body on the tree; that having risen bodily from the dead as the Scriptures said He would, He is now enthroned in Heaven where He as the all-sufficient Savior makes provision for the salvation of all those who call upon Him in faith and repentance.
(John 3:16; Acts 4:12; Rom. 3:25; 10:9-13; I Cor. 15:1-4; II Cor. 5:21; Eph. 1:7; 2:8-10; I Pet. 1:18-19)
