1. The bible is the truth.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for
teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that
the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of
the heart.

as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Scriptures,

6. Salvation is God’s gift to us.
For it is by grace you have been saved, through
faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by
works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9

some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to
perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become the children
of God.

To be saved you need to believe the word of God
as whole truth, that there in only one God and Jesus his son, that he

is alive. It is only by faith in believing, by trusting in Jesus Christ
as your Savior and confessing your sin and need to be saved. It is a
free gift offered to you from God your father who loves you. There is no
other way.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and
the life. No one comes to the father except through me.
John 14:6

God and lives like it.
