 * 1. It does make a difference what we believe
 * 2. There is only one Gospel that will save
 * 3. We must believe in the true God
 * 4. God is not a Trinity of persons, but One God
 * 5.      Jesus Christ – Son of God by begettal, Son of man by birth
 * 6.      The Holy Spirit not a person, but the effluence proceeding from God.
 * 7.      The nature of man – mortal, a creature of the dust.
 * 8. Man dies, and is dead after he has died
 * 9. In death man is unconscious
 * 10. Resurrection the means of future life for the dead
 * 11. Immortality the gift of God to the righteous only
 * 12.  Life as now possessed is not eternal, but a vapor that soon passeth away
 * 13.  Everlasting life not a present possession, but a matter of hope
 * 14.  The wicked and depraved who are not amenable die and remain dead
 * 15.  The wicked who are responsible of the dead and living will be destroyed after judgment
 * 16.  The soul not immortal, but is the mortal, bodily being called man
 * 17. Many learned men deny the immortality of the soul
 * 18.  The spirit of man not an immortal entity, but the word is used for life, mind and disposition
 * 19.  Immortality is God’s holy nature; the word “immortal” is never applied to man in his present state
 * 20.  Eternal life is not a present actual possession, but is promised to the righteous only
 * 21.  The wicked will not be preserved alive in torture, but will be destroyed
 * 22.  Hell as employed in the Bible does not mean a place of eternal torture, but the grave and Gehenna
 * 23.  The devil is not a personal monster dwelling in “hell” and yet everywhere present tempting all men, but is sin in the flesh


 * 24.  God has promised to bless and fill the earth with His glory
 * 25.  The earth is to be the everlasting inheritance of the righteous not heaven
