The Doctrinal Statement of Calvary Bible Church
Section 4 - Jesus Christ We believe in the identification of Jesus Christ as the impeccable (able not to sin and not able to sin) Son of God and God the Son (Matt. 16:13-16; John 10:36) His incarnation (Heb. 10:5); that He was begotten of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:18-215); His vicarious atonement for the sins of the world (Isa. 53:1-12; John 3:16; Gal. 4:4-5), the resurrection of His body from the tomb (Matt. 28:5-7; Luke 24:46; I Cor. 15:3-4); His ascension into heaven (Mark 16:19; Luke 24:51), as our High Priest (Heb. 4:14-16) and Advocate (I John 2:1-2), before the throne of God (Heb. 1:3; Rev. 3:21); that He is both God (Isa. 9:6; Phil. 2:6) and man (Matt. 20:28; Phil. 2:7-8), the two natures being inseparably united in one glorious Person without sin; and that He is the only sufficient mediator between God and humanity (I Tim. 2:5-6).
