Statement:

The only one true God, existing outside time itself, eternal, infinitely perfect. He is the Creator, Sustainer and Ruler of all things. A triune Godhead: one God, three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Each is fully God. He created all things; the heavens and the earth. Our Lord Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God took on human flesh to be fully man without ever ceasing to be fully God. Conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary and lived a sinless life. Jesus died on the cross for the atonement of the sin's of man. Jesus Christ rose from the dead and ascended into heaven to be seated at the right hand of God the Father. The Holy Spirit lives and works in each believer to produce the fruits of righteousness.

Supporting Scriptures:

Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth."

Isaiah 7:14 "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." [Old Testament Prophecy]

Isaiah 45:18 ""For thus says the Lord, who created the heavens (he is God!), who formed the earth and made it (he established it; he did not create it empty, he formed it to be inhabited!): "I am the Lord, and there is no other."" [Prophet Isaiah]

Luke 1:30-32 ""And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for eyou have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.""

[Prophecy Foretold]

Matthew 1:16-23 ""...and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ. So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations. Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:

"Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel""

John 19:28-30 (while upon the cross) ""After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.” A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit."" [Apostle John] [Prophecy Fulfilled]

Acts 2:22-24 "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know—this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men.

Hebrews 1:1-3 "Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but bin these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.

After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,"

Hebrews 10:10-12 "And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,"

1 Peter 1:17-19 "And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to each one’s deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile, knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot." [Apostle Peter]

1 Peter 2:21-25 "For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls." [Apostle Peter]
