We believe that man was created in the image of God. Adam and Eve sinned and consequently experienced not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is the loss of God’s eternal life, resulting in separation from God. As a consequence of this sin the entire moral and intellectual nature of unredeemed mankind is corrupted (Genesis 6:5,12, 8:21). This sinful nature makes all human beings incapable of raising themselves to the holiness in which God had originally created them. Man’s state of sin so infected his will that he is morally unable to choose Gods’ provision of redemption in Messiah Yeshua without the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. The destiny of the unredeemed man is eternal destruction (2 Thessalonians 1:8,9). The only way to overcome this eternal separation from God is to put one’s trust in Yeshua as the sin-bearing Son of God (John 3:16, 1 John 5:1).
