452: Official creed of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
"Disciples always have opposed...the use of creeds to exclude persons from the church. It was (the) use of creeds as 'tests of fellowship' that the Disciples' founding fathers fingered as the major cause of division among Christians...(So) unlike most other churches, we Disciples do not have an official doctrinal statement we can refer to when someone asks, 'What does the Christian Church believe?'" Kenneth Teegarden The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a community of believers who through baptism into Jesus Christ are bound by covenant to God and to one another. Disciples draw their inspiration from Scripture and the Holy Spirit, celebrating around the Lord's Table the life, death and resurrection, and continuing presence of Christ. We proclaim the good news of salvation. We claim as our particular witness the quest for Christian unity as a sign of God's unity for the human community. While stressing freedom and diversity under God, we believe unity and mission are ... ...

453: Is Jesus an actual or mythical Historical person?
History derives from a Greek word meaning "inquiry". History is a realm open to rational investigation. It is distinguished from the area of myth, fiction, and subjective experience. Jesus in history means that Jesus lived, died, and rose again in a part of our world which can be located on a map and in a time that can be placed on a calendar. The New Testament insists on the fact that the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ belong to the category of objective history and not to that of an inner experience. Jesus in history is so important, that His coming divides history into two periods: B.C. and A.D. The wonder and grandeur of Jesus of Nazareth is that He is the Son, who came into the world made through Him, not for His benefit, but for ours: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us" John 1:1,14. The New Testament speaks of the objective, historical reality of our Lord's coming in this ... ...

455: Almost Persuaded, to be Christian, but now it is too late!!!
Almost Persuaded To Be A Christian... But now its too late The confusion of our time over the meaning, requirements, and rewards of being a Christian can only be overcome by a return to the New Testament pattern. Christianity as intended by God is not a matter of satisfying ourselves, or merely being religious, but rather of satisfying God's will through Jesus Christ. To be a Christian means to become like Christ in our surrender to the will of God. Let's look at the example of a man in the Bible, Agrippa, by name, who was almost persuaded to be a Christian. His ... Paul says it this way in Phillipians Chapter 2, verses 5-8: "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: v6.

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the ... ...

This word as it is used in a Biblical way, "To regard and treat as righteous on the ground of Christ's mediatorial work".

459: Official creed of the Unity/Unitarian Church
are present in God, hence panENtheism... WM] Jesus Christ: Unity rejects the traditional Christian view that Jesus is a deity to be worshipped; we point out that at no time did Jesus tell his disciples to worship him. Rather, we look upon Jesus as a great healer, miracle worker, and mystic who had a direct access to God. We believe that his actions can be emulated by believers today. One's life is to be dominated by love, and compassion, even toward one's enemies. Genesis story allegory Unity rejects the concept of original sin, (the belief that because of Adam and Eve's actions in the Garden of Eden, we are all conceived in iniquity and born in sin). We look upon the Genesis story as an allegory; a very human attempt to explain our beginnings. We emphasize that humans are created in the image and likeness of God, and are thus not intrinsically evil or sinful. Heaven: Rather than looking upon heaven as a place "up there" to be experienced as a reward after death, Unity conceives ... ...

470: Anxiety and Depression are not caused from chemical imbalances ...
Introduction: 1. Anxiety and depression are sinful behaviours which the Bible specifically warns against. Jesus commanded us not to be anxious and to rejoice. Anxiety and depression are disobedient emotional choices in direct rebellion to Jesus Christ. We are to rely upon God for everything in all of life's situations, even if we are tortured for our faith and crucified upside down on a burning cross. The Christian is never to be anxious or depressed. 2. Depression is distinguished from natural mourning by four factors: a. Depression is characterized by an unnatural length of time for sadness. While a person may mourn for months, depression may last years. b. Depression is almost always characterized by some kind of self-disablement. A person may weep for 3 months over the death of a loved one, they return to full functionality in their life's duty and responsibility almost immediately. People can be sad, but not self-disabled. Depression is often an excuse for self-disablement. c. ... ...

477: Official creed of Awana Clubs International (A.W.A.N.A.)
We believe that God, by His sovereign choice and out of love for men, sent Christ into the world to save sinners. (John 3:16; 1 Timothy 1:15; 1 John 4:14) GOD THE SON We believe that Jesus Christ was fully God in the flesh and fully man, that He was born of a virgin and that He lived a sinless life, in which He taught and performed mighty works and wonders and signs exactly as revealed in the four gospels. We believe that He was crucified, shed His blood, died to pay the penalty for our sins and was raised bodily from the dead on the third day. Forty days later He ascended to the Father's right hand ... They are, however, not to be regarded as a means of salvation. But both of which are an evidence of obedience and fellowship with the Lord.

479: Werner, Martin: The Formation of Christian Dogma
"In the Primitive Christian era there was no sign of any kind of Trinitarian problem or controversy, such as later produced violent conflicts in the Church. The reason for this undoubtedly lay in the fact that, for Primitive Christianity, Christ was . . . a being of the high celestial angel-world, who was created and chosen by God for the task of bringing in, at the end of the ages, . . . the Kingdom of God." (The Formation of Christian Dogma, An Historical ...

"AT JOHN 1:1 the King James Version reads: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Trinitarians claim that this means that "the Word" (Greek, ho lo'gos) who came to earth as Jesus Christ was Almighty God himself.

483: Church Creeds: The fuel of religious division
Church Creeds: The fuel of religious division In a historical trial in Waterloo, Iowa in 1951, the will of one who had left large sums of money to Christian charities was contested. In it, three Protestant clergymen were asked: "What is a Christian?" They responded by defining a Christian as one who believes in the Apostles Creed, the Holy Trinity, in God, the Divinity of Christ, and who subscribes to a confession of faith. Notice this definition denies to those refusing to accept the Apostles Creed and a denominational confession the name Christian. By it neither Peter nor Paul would qualify as a follower of Jesus, since such creeds were unknown in the First Century. In the decades following the death of John, the last living apostle, the early Church faced a difficult problem. False doctrines such as Gnosticism and Monticism plagued the body of Christ. Some even denied the deity of Jesus. To cope with the situation a simple confession of faith was devised to distinguish the Orthodox ... ...
