Praise God, everyone. My name is Kennedy Macharia. I am 27 years old. I am a born again saint of the true gospel of water, blood and the Holy Spirit. I believe in my heart when Jesus was born on this earth, He saved us from the sins of the world including mine, sins of yesterday, sins of today, and sins of tomorrow when He was 30 year of the age. three years later, He died at Golgotha on the Cross, bearing the sins of me, shedding His blood for the forgiveness of sins. Mine is included. Three days later, He was resurrected, ascended into heaven. He sits at the right hand of God. He will be back to judge quick the dead. I am happy to present a short video of review the book by Paul C. Jong. This book is titled, "The Elementary Principles of Christ." This is the book. This is the front page of the book "The Elementary Principles of Christ by Paul C. Jong." This is the back of the book. 
This book talks about the apostles` creed. The apostles were delegates called upon by Jesus Himself when He was witnessing the righteousness of God on this earth from His baptism, to His death to His ascension. So the chosen few apostles, the disciples of Jesus Christ, called upon to witness and to preach His Word and His righteousness all over the world.
THE APOSTLES CREED:
I believe in God the father almighty, maker of heaven and earth,
I believe in Jesus Christ, the only son our Lord,
conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate, crucified and died, and was buried, descended to hell, resurrected on the third day and ascended into Heaven, sitteth on the right hand of God the father almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost , the Holy Catholic church, the communion of the saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting Amen.
That is the creed that the apostles declared as a statement of faith. This is what they believed in their hearts. The book breaks down the apostles` creed into 3 sections. Section of God the father, the section of Jesus Christ the only son and the section of the Holy Ghost that we have, the saints and everlasting life.
God the father is in other words called Yahweh or Adonai which means `one that exists by himself` also means that God the father is the Word of Life and thirdly means that God the father is the one that is, the one that was and the one that is going to be; the alpha and the omega.
Jesus Christ being born on this earth was conceived by the Holy Ghost, it was not of the human nature of the conception of the body fluids of a man and a woman but it was a conception of the Holy Ghost making Him an unblemished and pure son of God. We human beings are born in sin. Romans 5:12 tells us that we are all born in sin from the inheritance of the adamic sin from Adam but Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Ghost making Him pure. He was baptized by John the Baptist, the representative of the whole world. Matthew 11:11 states that among those born of women there has risen no greater than John the Baptist, that means he is our representative who was the last High priest of this earth. So he baptized Jesus on the day of baptism at the Jordan river placing on His shoulders all the sins of the world (Mattew 3:15). 3 years later He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified and died on the cross. He was buried and descended into hell. 3 days later He resurrected and ascended into Heaven and He sits on the right hand of God. He will be back to judge the quick and the dead. The quick and the dead will be judged by the books of judgement. The books of judgement are the books of life and the books of deeds. Revelation 20:12 tells us that those that their names are written in the book of life are those that their hearts have no sin and have no deceit and will inherit the kingdom of Heaven. The others that have sin still inside their hearts, others that have not yet believed in Jesus` the only son works of righteousness still remain condemned and they will be judged by the book of deeds. Jesus Christ indeed kept the role of being the High priest of Heaven in whom it is stated in Hebrews that He entered the most Holy place, that is Heaven, with His own blood: not repeatedly but once and for all to forgive the sins of many because the bible tells us that without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins hebrews 9:22. Jesus Christ fulfilled His role as a High priest, fulfilled His role as a prophet revealing God`s righteousness and He will fulfill His role as the King by coming back to this earth and judging the world by the books of judgment.
The last segment of the apostles` creed states that we believe in the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is the Holy Spirit that witnesses the works of Jesus Christ and God from the beginning to the end. Without the witness of the Holy Spirit everything would be just but a story but the witness of the Holy Spirit seals and convicts our hearts of the righteousness that is fulfilled through the works of Jesus on this earth.
Then we understand that we believe in the Holy catholic church. This Holy church means holy without sin, so only those that do not have sin inside their hearts are those that believe in the water and blood, that is the works of Jesus Christ remain without sin in their hearts can indeed dwell in the Holy catholic church that is the communion of the saints.
The forgiveness of sins that comes from the baptism of John to Jesus Christ we are all forgiven and with this we have eternal life. Our bodies will indeed resurrect after the physical death and attain everlasting life with God the father the son and the Holy Spirit forever and ever in Heaven! 
With that is the gist in the book by Paul C. Jong entitled `The Elementary Principles of Christ` found on the following websites: www.bjnewlife.org or www.nlmission.com.
From this book we can find true repentance. Repentance is not the act of asking for forgiveness for one`s sins committed.
Repentance is the act of turning around from one`s proposed deeds and thoughts that he/she thinks have the authority to attain forgiveness from God. Repentance is the act of confession on the realization of one`s sinful nature and the acceptance of God`s salvation according to the written Word of God.I recommend you to read this book and by the grace of God will be a blessing in your life.
