TEN BASIC CHRISTIAN BELIEFS 5: MAN

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Basic Christian Beliefs

a) There are many great teachings in the Bible, but here are some of the most important, or fundamental beliefs of the Christian faith. Within each of these broad categories there are many other doctrines that could fill whole books and bookshelves. This is just a quick overview of what Christians believe.

b) It is wonderful to know that God communicates to us through His Word so that we can know about Him and His plan. We encourage you to take the basic Bible teachings here and study more about God and His Word on your own.

2. Man


a) Anthropology (the study of man) in a Christian perspective deals with the nature and origin of man. Where man came from and why.

b) First of all, Christians believe that man is made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26; 9:6; 1 Corinthians 11:7; Colossians 3:10; James 3:9). Though created by God (Genesis 1, 2) man did not always obey God (Genesis 3). We call this the fall of man. Because of man’s fall, sin was introduced into the world and the result is a finite physical life (Romans 5:12).
