[Church_of_Christ] Re: Creeds
Greetings Ed,
you said: As you can see in comparing this document with the former Clay reproduced of the SB, there is very little difference. Both follow the same pattern of stating what the body officially believes. If it waddles like a duck, quacks . . .
AS I've mentioned to you before, Baptist and many other denominations besides the CoC are autonomous and free to believe whatever thay choose to believe. They are not forced to belief anything. Are you contending that the CoC have nothing in writing as to what they believe?
And for what it's worth, I can see a lot of benefit in providing a statement of church beliefs and the doctrine of the local church. I've seen too many CoC spend all their time arguing about what they belief and never really serve one another in love. It's almost like they feel compelled to argue everyone down to a precise position on every Scripture. I mean, is that what Christianity is really all about?
Kindly, Cole
