Azure, Thank you for your helping heart in this matter. We do use the Apostles Creed, the Nicene Creed and etc. I checked briefly into the Church's beliefs before attending, and have been there for a while before being prompted towards becoming a member. However the first member meeting did send up a red flag, when I was told that they actually do perform infant baptism, if the parents prefer that method, however the pastor told me that he instructs the parents that baptism has nothing to do towards salvation. This did not convince me, as I feel that infant baptism leans more towards cultic behavior. That is when pastor Mike started talking about "Freedom in Christ" which started to send up more red flags, but then as I pondered this, I thought that maybe I was being too harsh and decided to consult with this forum |

Additionally, the affirmations of this church do actually mention the Word of God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit, as well as the mission of the Church, fellowship and the new birth. What they do not mention is the inerrancy of the Word, or infallibility and I will be questioning this at the next meeting, since all I have heard is talk about the centrality of the Word, but then there is the infant baptism (only if parents request it) and there is no biblical basis for that. | ||||||
