On the 1st Feb, I spoke on the need to know what we believe and why we believe it. The 4 main reasons we need a creed are:

1. So that we are not tossed about by every wind of doctrine – Eph 4:12-15

2. So that timeless absolutes are reinforced as a foundation for living rather than socially shifting trends – Col 2:7

3. So that we live what we preach and preach what we live – Rom 12:1-2

4. Because obedience to God’s Word brings blessing – Ps 119:1-8
