We believe that man, in his fallen state, is bound for hell (a real, physical place of fire and torment, completely, hopelessly and forever separated from God), needs to be saved, and cannot save himself. He must believe on the sacrificial and substitutional death of the LORD Jesus Christ on the Cross ONLY for his salvation and entrance into Heaven. Man cannot work by "being good", doing any sacraments or joining any Church to be saved. |
