The church also believes in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son and our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day, he rose again; he ascended into heaven and was seated at the right hand of the Father. It is believed that he will come again to judge the living and the dead.
