The Summit Path considers the following truths to be fundamental to an understanding of our relationship to the One True and Living Triune God.
One True God - The One True God is the eternally self-existent “I AM,” the Creator of the universe. He has further revealed Himself as a triune Being, manifested as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Scriptures Inspired - All Scripture is inspired by God as written in the original languages and is inerrant revelation of God to man. The Bible is the infallible authority for faith and conduct.
The Lord Jesus Christ - The Lord Jesus in 100% divine (Son of God) while simultaneously being 100% human (Son of Man). As God Incarnate, He is the express image of the Living God in human form.
Original Sin & The Fall of Man - Man was created good and upright in the image and likeness of God. The first man, Adam, through disobedience, fell from the grace of God and, thus, sin and death entered into the world. Adam’s transgression incurred not only physical death for man, but also spiritual death which is eternal separation from God. Man’s propensity to sin because of his sinful nature necessitates salvation from the power of sin and a Savior to provide that salvation.
Salvation of Man - Man’s only hope of redemption and salvation from sin is through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. His blood is completely sufficient to deliver every person from the power and penalty of sin. |
