THE
REDEMPTION OF MAN
Man
is a created being and was made in the likeness and image of God
(both male and female). But, through Adam's transgression and fall,
sin came into the world and passed upon all men. Jesus Christ, the
Son of God, was manifested to undo the work of the devil and gave His
life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God.
Salvation is the free gift of God to Man, separate from works and the
Law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ,
producing works acceptable to God. This salvation experience occurs
when an individual confesses with his mouth that Jesus is Lord and
believes in his heart that God has raised Him from the dead.
