Statement of Faith

 

We are Christians of various Church denominations. All who are involved with Mission for Unity are a member of their own Church. 

We are Anglican, Catholic, Evangelical, Protestant, Orthodox, etc...

 

We recognise the following statements of Christian Faith: 

 

the Athanasian Creed, Nicene Creed,  Apostolic Creed.

 

As Mission for Unity, we stand behind the Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification. 

 

We long for the Unity of the body of Christ.

 

I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. O, righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You, and these have known that You sent Me. And I have declared to them Your name and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”  - John 17: 20-24

 

We recognise the authority of the Bible as God's Word! 

We believe in the functioning of the Holy Spirit and we desire that He has total freedom to function in the body of Christ without limitation.
