The six foundational principles of the Doctrine of Christ form a comprehensive foundation that addresses past, present and future aspects of the Christian life. 1) Repentance from Dead Works addresses our past, turning away from ways of living and thinking that led to spiritual death. 2) Faith Toward God anchors our present, establishing an ongoing trust relationship with God as the center of our lives. 3) The Doctrine of Baptisms signifies our identification with Christ and the community of believers, marking our transition from the old life to the new. 4) The Laying on of Hands represents the empowerment and commissioning for service, equipping us for present ministry through spiritual gifts and authority. 5) The Resurrection of the Dead gives us hope for the future, assuring us that physical death is not the end but a transition to renewed life. 6) Eternal Judgment establishes accountability and eternal perspective, reminding us that our present choices have everlasting consequences.
