Subject: A New Reformation? |
Bible Note: I don't have predjudiced toward any churches John I don't know for sure this is a good sound creed it was created by man its not the Word of God. If it was completely sound I think it should be added to the cannon. This is the Creed/Statement of faith from the Church that I go to. We Believe that the only true basis of Christian fellowship is His (Agape) love, which is greater than any differences we posses and with without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians. We Believe worship of God should be Spiritual. therefore: We remain flexible and yielded to the leading of the Holy Spirit to direct our worship. We Believe worship of God should be inspirational. Therefore we give a great place to music in our worship. We Believe worship of God should be Intelligent. Therefore Our services are designed with great emphasis upon teaching the Word of God that He might instruct us how He should be worshipped. We Believe worship of God is Fruitful. Therefore We look for His love in our lives as the supreme manifestation that we have truly been worshipping Him. Now that claims what the church believes but does it mean we must believe everything it states in order to grow in Christ? This statement doesn't bother me because First its not trying to prove the Bible is correct by what we believe. It also doesn't Hinder any one from getting close to God. Creed like that are fine to me. We don't have a formal membership there neither. Not saying our church is perfect Only God is perfect. In Christ, Darcy I remeber a person who went to a church he was newly saved. He thought you had to be baptized to be saved. I pointed out in scripture were it doesn't say that. Showed him romans 10 ect. He said well your wrong because my Church's statement of faith says your wrong. That is how alot of these creeds work today and I think its a shame. In Christ, Darcy |
