Theology - The Problem & the Solution

Pastor Cameron continues the discussion on theology, and explains the introduction of sin, and the hope we have in Jesus. 1. *Humanity and Sin* We believe that mankind was created in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26–27) to know, love, and glorify Him. However, through Adam’s disobedience, sin entered the world and corrupted human nature (Romans 5:12; Psalm 51:5). Every person is born with a sinful nature and is separated from God, unable to save themselves by good works or human effort (Isaiah 59:2; Ephesians 2:1–3). Sin brings spiritual death and the righteous judgment of God (Romans 6:23; Hebrews 9:27). 1. *The Person and Work of Jesus Christ* We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man (John 1:1, 14; Colossians 2:9), conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Luke 1:35). He lived a sinless life (Hebrews 4:15), perfectly obeying the Father, and offered Himself as the substitutionary atonement for sin through His death on the cross (Isaiah 53:4–6; 1 Peter 2:24). He rose bodily from the dead on the third day (Luke 24:6–7; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4), demonstrating victory over sin and death, and ascended into heaven where He intercedes for His people (Hebrews 7:25; Acts 1:9–11). He will return in power and glory to judge the living and the dead (Matthew 25:31–32; Revelation 19:11–16).
