SALVATION

"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house," (Acts 16:31).

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God - not of works, lest any man should boast," (Ephesians 2:8-9).

"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit," (Titus 3:5).

TRINITY

"For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased," (II Peter 2:17).

"Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God," (Isaiah 44:6; compare with Jesus' words in Revelation 1:17 and 22:12-13).

"But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost..., thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God," (Acts 5:3-4).

JESUS

Deity: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us...," (John 1:1, 14).

Bodily Resurrection: "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have," (Luke 24:39).

Visible Second Coming: "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen," (Revelation 1:8).
