LAURA'S STATEMENT OF FAITH
I believe in the trinity. God the Father,
God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
I believe that the Bible is Gods perfect, inerrant,
inspired word.
I believe that we are saved by the grace of God alone
and that we obtain that grace freely by confessing our
sins and surrendering our will to Christ as Savior and
Lord of our lives.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God,
that He was born of a virgin, that He died on a cross,
was buried and resurrected and now sits at the right
hand of God.
I believe that Christs gift of salvation, by dying
on the cross for our sins, assures His followers of
eternal life with him in Heaven. This life begins the
moment they confess His name as their salvation.
