In one sense the doctrine of the trinity is a mystery that we will never understand fully.

Sin is any failure to conform to the moral law of God in act, attitude, or nature

The inerrancy of Scripture means that scripture in the original manuscripts does not affirm anything that is contrary to fact.

The pressure to conform to 'politically correct' speech is primarily a pressure not to use certain expressions. But when our freedom to use certain expressions is taken away, then our ability to think in certain ways is also curtailed.

Our justification from sins takes place at the point of saving faith, not at the point of water baptism, which usually occurs later. But if a person is already justified and has sins forgiven eternally at the point of saving faith, then baptism is not necessary for forgiveness of sins nor for the bestowal of new spiritual life. Baptism, then, is not necessary for salvation. But it is necessary if we are to be obedient to Christ, for he commanded baptism for all who believe in him.

In one sense the doctrine of the trinity is a mystery that we will never understand fully.

God eternally exists as three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and each person is fully God, and there is one God.
