The whole thing, in order.
This site argues a case, but the case is not the point. Here is what we actually believe, from the beginning to the end, in the fewest words that will carry it.
Read it top to bottom and you have the whole story. Every claim on this site exists to serve one of these lines.
-
God exists.
Not a feeling, and not a tradition handed down. The universe had a beginning, matter cannot create itself, and the mind is not the brain.
-
He created everything, including us.
Every living cell runs on coded instructions, and codes come from minds.
-
He made us for Himself.
You are not an accident and you are not an animal with a bigger brain.
-
We turned away from Him.
In Eden we chose our own judgement over His, and that choice is the inheritance we all still carry.
-
Man is sinful.
Not a list of bad habits. A broken relationship.
-
The wages of sin is death.
Separation from the source of life, which is what death actually is.
-
God did not leave us in it.

-
God died for our sins, so that we may be cleansed.
The Creator entered His own creation and took the penalty Himself.
-
And He rose.
Which is the evidence that He was who He said.
-
Death is already defeated.

-
The gift is offered. It is not applied automatically.

-
Only by accepting this sacrifice AND living holy lives may we be saved.
Both halves are real. Neither one alone is the whole.
-
And it can be lost.
Once saved, always saved is not what the Scripture teaches.
-
Judgment is real, and it is coming.

-
Hell is real.
Chosen rather than imposed.
-
Heaven is real.
Life, fellowship, work, no darkness, no sin.
-
We are in the end times.

-
So cling to God.
Live holy, endure to the end, and do not let go.
-
Today is the day.
