IX. Men are justified on the simple and single ground of the shed blood of Chri st , and upon the simple and single condition of faith in Him Who shed the blood, and are born again by the quickening, renewing, cleansing work of the Holy Spirit through the in strumentality of the Word of God. X. All those who receive Jesus Christ as their Saviour and their Lord, and who confess Him as such before their fellow men , become children of God, and receive eternal life. They become heirs of God and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. At death their spirits depart to be with Christ in conscious blessed ness, and at the second coming of Christ, their bodies shall be raised and transformed into the likeness of the body of His glory. XI. All those who persistently reject Jesus Christ in the pres ent life shall be raised from the dead , and throughout eternity exist in a state of conscious, unutterable endless torment and anguish. XII. The Church consists of all those who, in this present dis pensation, truly believe on Jesus Christ. It is the body and bride of Christ, which Christ loves, and for which He has given Himself up. XIII. There is a personal devil, a being of great cunning and power, "The prince of the power of the air," "The prince of this world," "The god of this age." He can exert his vast power only so far as God suffers him to do so. He shall ulti mately be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, and shall be tormented clay and night forever.
