- God forbids contacting the dead: Deuteronomy 18:10-12.
- No one will know when the end will happen. Mark 13:32.
- People only live and die once, then they receive eternal punishment or eternal life. Hebrews 9:27, Matthew 25:46.
- Adam is not God, but was created by God. Genesis 2:7.
- The truth would never be lost, therefore restoration is unnecessary. Matthew 16:18.
- there is only one God (Deut. 4:35, 39; Isa. 44:6),
- only God saves (Isa. 45:18, 21-23),
- Jesus Christ is the God who saves (Acts 4:12; also cf. Isa. 45:21-23 with Phil. 2:5-11, in the light of Isa. 42:8 & 44:11).
- God is separate from His creation. Being the Changeless One, eternally existent, He can create space and time without effecting His essence (Genesis 1:1; Psalm 100:3; Isaiah 40:28; 42:5; 44:24; Colossians 1:15–17; Hebrews 1:2).
- there is only one Christ, Jesus Christ, and all others claiming to be Christ are in fact anti-Christs (see Acts 4:12, Acts 1:12, Matthew 24:4–5, 23–27, 1 John 2:18).
* man was made in the image of God (Gen. 1:26),
- man is so far separate from God that God could regret having made man (Gen.6:5-6).
- man is sinful from birth, i.e. by nature (Ps. 51:5)
- Jesus made it plain He was not speaking of another birth into a physical body, but of a spiritual birth which takes place in this life and affects our eternity (Jn. 3:5,6).
- we have only one lifetime in which to make those decisions which will affect our eternal destiny (Heb. 9:27)
- God Himself provided the sacrifice necessary to appease His wrath against sin (Rom. 3:23-25)
- God provided the righteousness necessary to fulfill the perfect standard of His law (Rom. 4:4-6, 21-23; 5:17, 19; Phil. 3:8, 9).
- Righteousness is found in Jesus Christ and no other (Acts 4:12; 1 Tim. 1:15; 2:5, 6).
- Jesus said that His true church would never be overcome (Matt. 16:18).
- The Church is Jesus body (Rom. 12:4, 5; 1 Cor. 12:12-14, 27).
- The doctrine established for the church was written down and preserved in Scripture for the benefit of the church (Rom. 15:4; Eph. 4:14-16; 2 Tim. 3:16, 17)
- The Bible teaches that God would receive glory in the church throughout all generations (Eph. 3:21)
- Jesus would be with the church to the end of the world (Matt. 28:20).
- The God of the Bible reveals Himself (Hebrews 1:1–2)
- God wants to be known (Isaiah 45:22–25; Hosea 11:1–11)
- God invites relationship (John 14:23; Rev. 3:20)
- God makes false teaching about Himself evidence of a false prophet, deserving punishment (Deuteronomy 13:1–5).
- Christianity seeks to make dead men live (John 10:10; Ephesians 2:1–6).
- Christ is the outshining, the radiance of God's glory, His very image - not simply a reflection (Heb.1:3)
- Jesus existed as God before taking on human flesh and living on earth (John 1:1–3, 14).
- Jesus truth and salvation was not for his time only, but for people of all times (Matthew 28:18–20; Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5; Philippians 2:6–11; Jude 3).
- Jesus was resurrected physically (John 20:17, 20, 27; Luke 24:15, 39–43), just as He promised (John 2:19–21).
- The apostles proclaimed a physically risen Savior (Acts 2:24–32; 4:10; 17:31; Romans 1:4; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4).
- Humans are not to accept a new gospel from spirit beings, - Galatians 1:8.
- Humans should rely on the Bible as the authoritative source of truth. - 2 Timothy 3:15–17; Acts 17:11.
- Jesus is not merely an example of God, but rather is the one in whom the Godhead fully dwells. - Colossians 2:9.
- Humans will not be reincarnated many times, but instead live only once before facing judgment from God. - Hebrews 9:27.
- Furthermore, salvation does not come through anything that humans can do, but instead is given only through the unmerited grace of God. - Romans 3:28.
