God

We believe in one God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible;

Jesus

and in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God,
Begotten of the Father before all ages, God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made;

Who for us men, and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate.

He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father.
And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead: whose kingdom shall have no end.

The Holy Spirit

and we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, who has spoken by the Prophets.

The Church, Baptism, and Redemption

and we believe in one catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins.
And we look for the Resurrection of the dead,
And the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Ecumenical Posture

Glaubensfutter takes an ecumenical posture, and therefore we do our best not to privilege one specific Christian confession over the other. The best way to express in general what we defend on a philosophical level is "Mere Christianity" as portrayed by C.S. Lewis in his book by the same name.

Needless to say, there are many difficulties involved in discerning exactly what "Mere Christianity" is, if for no other reason than that the actual meaning of individual doctrinal points of a creed as well as their orthopraxical implications can be understood differently by individuals.

For this reason, it is also important to add that we defend a "historical Mere Christianity" in the sense that we defend "Mere Christianity" in which the individual doctrinal points are to be understood as grounded in the church's consensual understanding throughout history -- not subject to complete revision and redefinition by the modern world to fit nicely into an otherwise entirely contradictory worldview.
