Blood of Jesus Christ – Shed for us at Calvary, cleanses us from our sin and grants us access to the presence of God.

Sanctification – We mean the separation from the nature of the world unto the character of God. It is a life of true holiness.
The Second Coming of Jesus Christ – That Jesus Christ will come again to earth in glory and power; that the dead in Christ will rise first followed by those alive in Him, and both will be in the presence of God for eternity.
