Therefore go and make disciples, preach his gospel, spread his word. 3 All the clear commands of Jesus must be heeded and obeyed; full provision for our weakness in his teaching he has made; in the Gospel words and symbols saving truth to us conveyed. 4 All the time he will be with us, always, to the end of days; with his own believing people who keep steadfast in his ways; God the Father, Son, and Spirit, bless us, and to him the praise!

I believe sins are forgiven, that our bodies will be raised to eternal life in heaven: ever let his name be praised.
