There is one God
Christians worship one God. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are not three gods. Scripture reveals the one God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Deuteronomy 6:4 · Matthew 3:16–17 · Matthew 28:19

Biblical foundations
Christian Gospel in Plain English
Jesus Christ is the Son of God
The New Testament teaches that the eternal Son became truly human. Jesus died for sins, was buried and rose from the dead. He is Lord.
John 1:1–18 · Philippians 2:5–11 · 1 Corinthians 15:1–8
The Holy Spirit gives life
The Holy Spirit is divine and personal. He glorifies Christ, helps believers pray, produces holy character and equips the Church.
John 14:15–27 · Romans 8:1–27 · Galatians 5:16–25
The Gospel is good news
The Gospel is the good news of what God has done through Jesus Christ. We are not saved by earning God's favour, but by grace through faith.
Romans 3:21–26 · Ephesians 2:1–10 · 1 Corinthians 15:1–8
Repent and believe
Jesus calls people to repent and believe the Gospel. Repentance means turning toward God and away from sin; faith means trusting Jesus Christ.
Mark 1:14–15 · Acts 20:21 · Romans 10:9–13
Follow Christ with His people
Christian faith is personal but not solitary. The New Testament calls believers into teaching, fellowship, prayer, baptism, service and witness within the Church.
Acts 2:37–47 · 1 Corinthians 12:12–27 · Hebrews 10:24–25
Prayer response
A simple prayer to God
Father, thank You for making Yourself known through Jesus Christ. Forgive my sins. Help me turn toward You, trust Jesus Christ and follow Him. Holy Spirit, lead me in truth and help me live in obedience, love and faith. Amen.
Matthew 6:9–13 · Romans 8:26–27 · Hebrews 4:14–16
