The third belief, in six points, emphasizes the Diety of the Lord Jesus Christ, and:

Expressed differently: if the price for becoming a faithful follower of Jesus Christ is some form of self-destruction, whether of the body or of the mind -- sacrificium corporis, sacrificium intellectus -- then there is no alternative but that the price remain unpaid.

and ( 3 ) in so doing, frees itself to give appropriate emphasis to the event Jesus Christ by means of statements that, from Bultmann's point of view, are mythological.

Christianity declares that in the life and death of Jesus Christ the unique and the universal concur.

To be the Savior and the Lord, Jesus Christ has to be a historical individual with a biography all his own ; ;

Each man can identify himself with the history and the death of Jesus Christ because Jesus Christ has identified himself with human history and human death, coming as the head of a new humanity.

The outcome of such an experiment has been in due time the acceptance of the Bible as the Word of God inspired in a sense utterly different from any merely human book, and with it the acceptance of our Lord Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of God, Son of Man by the Virgin Mary, the Saviour of the world.

In fact, He came into this world Himself, in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ, who stood here amid the darkness of human sin and said: `` I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life ''.

When that fear has been removed by faith in Jesus Christ, when we know that He is our Savior, that He has paid our debt with His blood, that He has met the demands of God's justice and thus has turned His wrath away -- when we know that, we have peace with God in our hearts ; ;

We do well to remind ourselves that from men and women of New England ancestry also issued the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the Seventh Day Adventists, Christian Science, the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, the American Home Missionary Society, the American Bible Society, and New England theology.

For his workmanship we are, created in Christ Jesus.

Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God.

But grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

I am convinced of this, that he who has begun a good work in you will bring it to perfection until the day of Christ Jesus.
