These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you. (Titus 2: 15) [Introduction]

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth (Is. 40:25)

And in Jesus Christ his only Son, Our Lord (Acts 2:36)

Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into hell (Math.27: 45-46)

The third day he rose again from the dead (1 Cor. 15:20)
