Steps To Salvation

ARTICLE OF FAITH

We believe that all men are sinners and guilty before God. They are dead in trespasses and sin, and cannot save themselves. God has, out of His infinite love, given His son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to become man’s Saviour. Genuine repentance is a necessary attitude and act of man that makes it possible for the holy and just God to forgive man’s sins. Faith must accompany repentance. It is the act of will whereby man embraces the promises of God and appropriates to himself the provisions of God’s grace.

When the requirements of repentance and faith have been met, God justifies and regenerates the sinner.

God's Provision of Salvation
