Feeding on Jesus: Lent Week 3

This Lent season, we want to feed on Jesus. Lent runs from Ash Wednesday March 4 through Easter on April 20, and we're encouraging everyone involved with Redemption Church to talk through our belief statement with a partner during this time. If you missed the beginning of this, read more about how and why we're doing this here. You can see all the posts in this series by clicking here. Finally, you can see our entire belief statement here.

Here's this week's portion of our belief statement:

We believe that, because of humanity’s helpless situation, Jesus Christ came to do for humanity what humans could not do for themselves. We believe that this Jesus Christ is the Son of God—He is truly and fully God in the same way that His Father is truly and fully God and in the same way that the Holy Spirit is truly and fully God. As the Nicene Creed says, the Son is Light from Light, true God from true God, being of the same essence as the Father. All three of these, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, are God in the most robust sense. They have always existed together before the existence of anything else, the Son being eternally fathered by the Father and the Spirit eternally proceeding from the Father. These three alone are worthy of all glory, honor, and worship.
