MY STATEMENT OF FAITH


 

I believe, as a Christian artist,

 designing this page requires the simplest palette:

BLACK = my sin.

RED = Jesus' blood covers my sin.

WHITE = Cleansed! White as snow!

 

 

 

God created the universe and every living thing in it.

 the Holy Bible is the inspired word of God and it will never pass away.

 in The Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ came to this earth as a baby, born to a young Jewish virgin named Mary. I believe He lived upon this earth for 33 years, was crucified, buried and rose on the third day, then ascended to Heaven where He now sits on the right hand of Almighty God, my Heavenly Father. I believe His mission was to voluntarily become the sacrifice for our sins and the bridge between man and God.  "I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh to the Father but by me."

there must be a specific moment in time when, through the nudging of the Holy Spirit, we realize we are sinners, we are convicted and repent of our sins, we accept Christ's sacrifice on the cross to remove those sins as far as the East is from the West. We acknowledge Him as our Savior; and with the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, we strive daily to become more like Him.

that upon accepting Him as our Lord and Savior, we become a part of the body of Christ, His Church, with assurance of eternal life.  "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting Life".

just as there is a  Heaven there is a Hell.

that Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist and we desire to follow Him in baptism by being immersed as He was -- beneath the water, symbolizing the old man is put off, brought back up as a new creature in Christ Jesus.

in God's miraculous healing power   because of witnessing it within my own family.

in The Rapture, Jesus returning in the clouds for His own, in the twinkling of an eye! And I believe NO ONE knows the day nor the hour;  however, according to the Word, we are in the very last days.

all of God's children are to be carrying out His work, and since we all have different talents/gifts, the work each of us does will differ. I believe we are all charged with spreading His word to the ends of the earth, making every attempt to lead the lost to Christ. "Go ye into all the world..." What greater opportunity than through the World Wide Web!

 

much is speculation and we will not know "in full" until we are in heaven. And then I believe it will not matter whether  Christ's birth was celebrated on December 25,  or  that His resurrection day was called "Easter", or whether we worshiped in a cathedral or a tent -- on Saturday OR Sunday!  I believe the ultimate question will be: "And what did you do about Christ's sacrificial death on the cross?"

 

Thank you for visiting. God Bless you and keep you safe.

 

Only a sinner saved by His Grace,

Mary Beatty
