WINTER 2003


What do United Methodists believe?

This is the first in a series of brief articles summarizing the doctrinal beliefs of the United Methodist Church.


WHAT DO WE BELIEVE ABOUT JESUS?

Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and Lord of all.

Article II, The Confession of Faith, The United Methodist Book of Discipline:
We believe in Jesus Christ, truly God and truly man, in whom the divine and human natures are perfectly and inseparably united.

He is the eternal Word made flesh, the only begotten Son of the Father, born of the Virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit.

As ministering servant he lived, suffered and died on the cross. He was buried, rose from the dead and ascended into heaven to be with the Father, from whence he shall return.

He is eternal Savior and Mediator, who intercedes for us, and by him all persons are to be judged.


Next time: What do we believe about the cross?
