THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten of the Holy Spirit in a miraculous conception, as no other person has ever been conceived or can be conceived; born of Mary, a virgin, and that He is both the Son of God and God the Son, fully God in the flesh—the God/Man. As such, He was and is totally incapable of sin both in character and conduct.
As the second Person of the Triune Godhead, He has always existed, without beginning or ending, eternal, the Jehovah of the Old Testament.
Because of man’s sin, God purposed to save individuals from their sin through the act of redemption, accomplished through the sacrificial death by the shedding of the blood of His own Son, Jesus Christ. On the cross, He freely suffered and bore the sins of all mankind in order to satisfy God’s righteousness and appease His wrath against sinners. This death was unlimited in its scope, affective for the entire world, but only applicable to those who will receive Jesus Christ as Savior through repentant faith.
Three days following His death, Jesus Christ rose victoriously over sin and death, and bodily from the dead in a glorified state, but in the same body in which He had lived on earth. This resurrection was literal and permanent. Jesus Christ is alive today, seated beside His heavenly Father on His throne.
