UNITED METHODISTS BELIEVE

 

United Methodists affirm the historic Christian faith as summarized in the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed.

 

We believe in the Triune God, the Trinity -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

We believe every person is a beloved child of God.

 

We believe in the Church as the community called to be instruments of God's presence and coming reign in Jesus Christ.

 

We believe in the Bible as God's revealed Word.

 

We believe in the final triumph of God's reign of compassion, justice, generosity, and peace.

 

--Bishop Kenneth L. Carder
