- He was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Virgin Mary (Luke 2:30-35)
- He was baptized in the Jordan River (Luke 3:21-22), tempted by the devil and surpassed the temptations (Luke 4:1-14)
- He ministered to those around him and preached the gospel of the Kingdom; healing all kinds of sicknesses and diseases (Matthew 4:23)

- b. Imparting power; (Acts 1:5-8)
- 2 Timothy 3:16–17. The Apostle Paul taught how the scriptures bless our lives. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
- Man was created in the Image of God:
- When God created man in His image, man reflects what or who God is like, His attributes, His reflection includes:
- Personality: Ability to reason, think, and choose
- Authority: God has the ultimate authority over all things and God gave man an authority to rule and dominate the earth and nature. (Gen 1:28-29)
- Creativity: God gave man the ability to create. Man can create and procreate.
- Moral character: Ability to choose between right and wrong, good and evil.
- Man was created as a three-part being (Body, Soul, Spirit)
- Body: Natural/physical body that houses the spirit and soul.(Gen 2:7)
- Soul: ability to reason and think (mind), ability to feel (emotions), and ability to decide (will) (Rev 6:9, Hebrew 12:23)
- Spirit: the human spirit inside man that connects with God (1 Cor 2:11)
- Once an individual accepts salvation, God considers them in right standing with Him and because of that renewed relationship with Him, they have all of the benefits of the Kingdom of God. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV)
- The Church (Universal) – The Body of Christ
- Ecclesia - the called out ones into fellowship with Christ and other believers.
- "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation… called out of darkness into His marvelous light." (I Peter 2:9 NKJV)
- The Church (Local) – Congregation/Assembly
- The church is people, not buildings. Church membership is a divinely established covenant. It involves a commitment of members to be identified and involved with a local assembly whose members have made the decision to worship together with other believers in a certain place under the authority of Jesus Christ.
- Death and Life After Death (Eternal Destinations)
- All men have this in common, death. This means that every human can expect that his natural body will separate from his soul, his spirit will return to God and life on earth as now known will end. But, after earthly death there is another life.
- "And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment. (Hebrews 9:27 NKJV)
- Matthew 25:31-46 explains that when Jesus returns to earth (2nd coming) in all his splendor and sits on his seat of judgment, he shall separate those who belong to him from those who have not accepted him. And the eternal destination will be given.
- 2 Corinthians 5: 10 ―For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
