For my Doctrines & Themes class I had to
make a statement of faith that was at the most only one page long. Since I am
not very creative when it comes to writing out what I believe - I
wrote it out in creedal form.
I believe:
In the Holy Spirit the Revealer – one with the Creator and
the Redeemer
The
Holy Spirit is restoring the bond of love, trust, and communication betwixt the
Creator and creation
The
Revealer speaks through prophets/heretics, music, Scriptures, doctrines, and
many other forms of communication
In
Jesus the Redeemer – one with the Creator and the Restorer
Who
has been revealed to all of humanity by way of the Revealer through Holy
Scriptures, Reason, Personal Experiences, and Tradition
The
very embodiment of the Creator’s vision for humanity
In God
the Creator – the Mother/Father, the Beginning & the End
Through
whom all was made and is being made new
Through
whom all natural laws have been written
From
whom all that is good comes
From
whom all love flows
In
Holy Scriptures both canonical and non-canonical
All
inspired by God and used by God to serve God’s purposes in the world
In the sacredness of all of creation
In the explicit and implicit company of the saints
In the practices of Revelation, Resurrection, Recreation
In not fearing death
And in abundant life
