Credo of the Christadelphian

There is only one God, the Father.
This is the Almighty God above all gods, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Jesus and his followers.

The only true God who tells no lies, created the world and has given mankind His infallible Word.

The whole universe came into being by the Power of the God (the Holy Spirit)

The Holy Spirit is the Power of God.

The Bible is the only true message of the only true God, creator of heaven and earth.

The Bible or Holy Scripture is God's inspired word.
It is His message to us. 

By the original sin man is doomed to die, wherein his life completely ends.
Man is mortal and all life ends at death.

The gift of God for the faithful is immortal life on earth after Jesus' return.

People are responsible for their sins.

Jesus is both the Son of God and a human being or a son of man, born about 2,000 years ago, of his mother Mary.

Christ has transcended human nature and was sinless.

By a sinless life Jesus lead, he has opened the way to salvation from death for all those who believe in him.

Through Jesus' sacrificial death, we have the opportunity to be saved and to obtain eternal life.
 

Jesus, who rose from the dead, will come back to earth to judge the living and the dead and to give the faithful eternal life.

Jesus is now in heaven at the right hand of God his Father.

Jesus will soon return to earth.

When Jesus returns, he will rule the world as king of the restored Kingdom of God.

He will give immortality to all those who have faith in him and his father and who follow him. 

Baptism is an outward sign of following Jesus.

Jesus followers will also prevail in peace on earth.

If we, in our prosperity, neglect religious instruction and authority

Daniel Webster was one of the great orators of the mid-1800s. As a Member of Congress; debater before the Supreme Court; and twice Secretary of State, he loved America. He once said: “If we, in our prosperity, neglect religious instruction and authority, violate the rules of eternal justice, trifle with the injunctions of morality, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us that shall bury all of our glory in profound obscurity.”

  We have become a nation of idol worshippers. No, I don’t mean that we carve out little forms, put them on an altar and kneel before them. Though that would be no more offensive to God than the things we do. When we think only of our man-made security; when the things we treasure are material (for “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”); when we believe that we ourselves are responsible for our successes; when we drag God down and turn Him into mortal man and worship that man as God - then we have turned away from God and are worshipping idols. We have been warned that, as the result of such abandonment, “there shall be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world nor ever shall be.” We are asking for that “great tribulation.” Our conduct as a nation, is begging to be destroyed. Our hearts should be repentant and our prayer should be for forgiveness before we have the nerve to ask God for His blessing.

  Abraham Lincoln wrote: “We have forgotten the gracious Hand which has preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us, and have vainly imagined in the deceitfulness of our hearts that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own.”
