Official creed of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) 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 inseparable; we witness and serve among the whole human family in the interest of peace, justice, mercy and kindness. Composed by General Minister and President Emeritus Kenneth Teegarden, affirmed by the General Board of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) While Disciples honor no human-made creed, the preamble to a document called The Design for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) poetically ... ... https://www.bible.ca/cr-Disciples-C.htm

How Can Man Be Justified With God? How Can Man Be Justified With God? The dictionary defines the word justify as "To declare guiltless or blameless". This word as it is used in a Biblical way, "To regard and treat as righteous on the ground of Christ's mediatorial work". The Apostle Paul said in Romans Chapter 5, verse 1, "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ". He continued his message to the people in Rome by stating in Romans Chapter 6, verses 17 and 18, "But God be thanked, that you were the servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness". Sin is the only thing that will separate man from God.

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.
