Can a people truly serve God without a changed heart? How is it that the Jews, who rejected Jesus, lost their strong position as God's people even though they still held on to the Torah? But for Jews and Gentiles who receive a new heart by the Spirit, they truly live within the covenant relationship.

Reformed Christianity:
- Salvation is by grace alone through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
- The Bible alone is the authoritative Word of God for our lives.
- All believers are anointed in Christ to serve him always, everywhere, in all they do.
- God gave us two sacraments, baptism and communion, which are signs and seals of God’s promises.
- The original sinful condition in which we are born as well as our actual sins are all fully washed away by Christ’s one sacrifice on the cross.
- Prayer should be directed to God alone, through our mediator Jesus Christ.
- All praise is directed to the glory of God alone.
