Creation: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Gen. 1:1).
Humanity: "So God created man in his own image, / in the image of God he created him; / male and female he created them" (Gen. 1:27).
Sin: "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Rom. 3:23).
Judgment: "For the wages of sin is death" (Rom. 6:23).
Redemption: "God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ" (2 Cor. 5:19).
Faith: "Without faith it is impossible to please God" (Heb. 11:6).
Love: "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13).
