Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe that Jesus died and was resurrected to pay the price for all sin. We are saved by grace through faith. This happens when one surrenders to the Lordship of Christ. Christians will go to Heaven at death or at the rapture. While it is true that Christians have been justified at the time of conversion, we are admonished through scripture to strive to be as much like Christ as possible. I also believe that the Bible is the Holy and Inspired Word of God, and that every word of the Bible is true.

Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?

Very Conservative
