- He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. (Luke 1:26-38)
- He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. (Matt 16:21)
- He descended to hell. (Is 53:4-6; Matt 27:46; Rom 3:23; 6:23)
- On the third day He rose again. (1 Cor 15: 14; 17; 20; 55-57; Rev 1:17-18)
- He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. (Acts 1:6-11; Rom 8:34)

Next Steps:
- Pick one of the 7 statements that you don’t fully understand, or that comes with a little more difficulty, and meditate on it. Then ask:
- What does this truth change about the way I think?
- What does this truth change about the way I act or feel about myself?
- What does this truth change about the way I act or feel about others?
- If you’re struggling with knowledge vs relationship, find someone who clearly has that relationship and talk to them about it.
