` የእኛ እምነትና ደህንነት ክርስቶስን በማወቅ ላይ ይመሰረታል።
ክርስቶስን ማወቅ ስናወራ በጥቅል ስለ ሶስት ነገር እያወራን ነዉ።
1/ ስለ ክርስቶስ አካል(Person Of Christ)
2/ ስለ ክርስቶስ ስራ (Work Of Christ)
3/ ስለ ክርስቶስ ሱታፌ
እያንዳንዱ ነገር ለእዉነተኛ ሙሉ ደህንነት ብቁ የምታደርግ እምነት እንዲኖረን የሚያስችል ዋጋ አለው።እያንዳንዱ ስለ
ክርስቶስ የምናዉቀዉ እና የምናምነዉ ነገር የአምልኳችንን እዉነተኝነት ፣ ምግባራዊ ኑሯችንን ፣ደህንነታችን፣የፍጥረት
ምልከታችንን እና ተስፋችንን ይወስነዋል። ስለዚህም የ”ክርስቶስ እዉቀት”(ስለ ክርስቶስ ያለ እውቀት )፦ የምናምነውን
ማወቅ ብቻ ሳይሆን የድነታችን ምንጭ ፣የአምልኳችን ማዕከል ነዉ።
` የክርስቶስ ትንሳኤ
ሐዋርያ ጳዉሎስ ስለ ትንሳኤ የሚያወራበትን መንገድ በአራት ከፍለን ማዬት እንችላለን።
1/ ለክርስቶስ ሊህቀት በእግዚአብሔር የተደረገ ታላቅ ተአምራት ፡
2/ ትንሳኤዉ በሌሎች ላይ ያለዉን ተጽኖ ለመናገር ፡
3/ በዚህ ትንሳኤ ሌሎች እንደሚተባበሩ ለመናገር፡
4/ በትንሳኤ ስራ ሃይሉን የገለጠዉ መንፈስ ቅዱስ በአማኞች ዉስጥ ይኖራል፤
