Ok here's my attempt:
- God, as originally described in the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament), the creator of the universe.
- Jesus Christ God's only begotten son, who was born of a virgin, executed, descended into Hell, rose again and ascended into heaven.
- Christ as having existed since before the creation of the world, and who will return to earth at some time in the future, to judge everyone, including the dead.
- Christ is "one substance" with God.
- Baptism is needed for the remission of sins; this implies that only baptized persons will be saved; the rest will spend eternity in Hell after death.
- The Holy Spirit as the giver of life who has spoken through the Prophets and is to be worshiped and glorified. The method by which God communicates with mankind.
- The communion of saints (Christians), forgiveness of sins, resurrection of the body after death, and eternal life after death.
Thanks

So, Christ is going to return to earth to judge everyone, including the dead? Does that mean that the dead are not judged upon death? As in, from our frame of reference, the dead will not be in heaven/hell until Jesus returns?
And you believe people who are not Baptised will not be saved? Even if they become believers in the other tenants at a later date? For what reason? And do you consider that "fair", subjectively?
And you believe our physical bodies will be resurrected? Our physical bodies will reside in Heaven? Does that mean heaven is a realm in 3 Dimensions?
