We affirm that the Lord Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity. Eternally begotten from the Father, He is God. He was conceived in the virgin Mary through a miracle of the Holy Spirit. He lives forever as perfect God and perfect man: two distinct natures inseparably united in one person. He was manifested in the flesh when He dwelt among us. Not only is He the only begotten Son of God, but He is the sinless Son of God, and the only supreme sacrifice for our sin.
