| Description: |
Considers
the origin of the creeds, their authority and subsequent depreciation.
Projects the relevance of the creeds for today. Traditionally the creeds
represented the bedrock convictions of the early church. They were used
not only to counter heresy, but also to regulate baptism, order
corporate worship, and shape catechetical instruction. Today the creeds
offer an appreciation for the unity and historical continuity of the
church. However, as human formulations, the creeds are subordinate to
Scripture, the supreme rule of faith and practice. NOTE:

The catechism wants to teach us
to live by teaching us to pray. The stage is set for prayer by the
catechism's initial attention to the Christian life as a life of
repentance. The second section of the catechism tells the story of grace
in Jesus Christ. The theme of gratitude is the third section of the
catechism. It is the Christian life that drives us to pray, to look to
Christ, and to attend to God as the author and perfector of our lives |

| Description: |
At
Barmen, Protestant leaders disavowed false teachings of the
German Christians,
drawing the distinction between true and false teaching and
committing the church to a specific identity and faith. Barmen declared
the church free from the demands of any ideology, limiting Christian
allegiance to any worldly authority - revealing its strength and
radicalism. Notes what Barmen did not say, especially its silence about
Jews and others already victims of Nazi persecution. Despite the
subsequently ambivalent record of the churches under Nazism, Barmen
continues as an inspiration for Christians in dictatorships and in
situations governed by injustice and violence. |

Israel's Creed: Sung, not Signed |
| Source:
|
Scottish Journal of Theology |
| Year:
|
1963 |
| Volume:
|

| Page: |
277-285. |
| Description: |
The Old Testament is neither a consciously formulated
propositional confession, nor simply a loose collection of fragments
from which the story of Israel's religion may be recovered, but a corpus
which both issued from and moulded the life of a religious community.
The Old Testament is therefore a confessional document. Israel's creed
was sung, not signed, and the literary corpus in which Israel's worship
is most comprehensively expressed (the Psalms) is the most
representative and characteristic source of Old Testament Theology. |

| Page: |
107-114. |
| Description: |
The Christian church has been heir of Latin theology and
Greek philosophy - leaning toward faith spelled out in precise form.
Confessional Christianity, as opposed to a practical Christianity, is an
attempt to reduce Christianity to a theology. The Church of the Brethren
has never officially resorted to the use of creeds, using other symbols
instead: the basin and towel, Love Feast, visitation of the sick and
imprisoned, celebration of life in the bread and cup. The Brethren
borrowed from Pietism several ideals which remain alive in the
brotherhood. At the heart of the ideology of the Church is the
conviction that each person remains free to turn to the Bible for
guidance under the leading of the Holy Spirit. |

Creeds and Christian Unity: A Southern Baptist Perspective. |

| Page: |
25-36 |
| Description: |
Southern Baptists have maintained a firm commitment to the
principle of "Scriptures alone." Current controversy within
the Southern Baptist Convention is forcing a reassessment of this
position. A fundamentalist faction within the Convention is pressing for
a narrowly defined set of fundamentals centered on inerrancy of the
Scriptures. It would be far better to reaffirm traditional and
universally acknowledged symbols such as those framed at Constantinople
in 381 in the Nicene Creed. This
accords more closely with the traditional Baptist perspective. |
