One Lord, one faith, one baptism; One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
-Ephesians 4: 5-6
The Apostle Paul had a way of getting to the point when he was dealing with complex theological issues. Here in his letter to the Ephesians he breaks down what are the essentials of Christian faith.

Remember these simple statements of faith:
-
-
- God is love.
- Jesus is Lord.
- Love your neighbor.
What more could you want or need?
In the same spirit of simplicity my sister shared the following:
Keep it simple this holiday season my friends!
