In Jesus Christ, who being one with the Father became like us to bring about our Salvation.

That when we are forgiven, the old record of sin is wiped clean, and we are born again (spiritually), becoming part of the family of God.
​
That after being born again, we need the fullness of God's Spirit in our lives.
​
When we make a complete commitment to him, He cleanses us (from the inside out), fills us with His love, and gives us the power to live victorious lives of integrity.

That those who have placed their faith in Jesus have an eternal home with Him in heaven.
