We believe that the blessings of salvation are made free to all by the Gospel, and that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner but his own depravity and rejection of the Gospel.
Isaiah 55:1, John 3:16
Justification
We believe that through justification the perfect righteousness of God is imputed to the believers in Christ Jesus.
Acts 13:39, Romans 5:12
