"I Believe"
a sermon by Pastor Lynnae Sorensen
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH—MASAI CREED
We believe in the one High God, who
out of love created the beautiful world and everything good in it. He created Man and wanted Man
to be happy in the world. God loves the world and every nation and tribe on the
Earth. We have known this High God in darkness, and now we know Him in the
light. God promised in the book of His word, the Bible, that He would save the
world and all the nations and tribes.
We believe
that God made good His promise by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, a man in the
flesh, a Jew by tribe, born poor in a little village, who left His home and was
always on safari doing good, curing people by the power of God, teaching about
God and man, showing the meaning of religion is love.
He was
rejected by his people, tortured and nailed hands and feet to a cross, and
died. He lay buried in the grave, but the hyenas did not touch him, and on the
third day, He rose from the grave. He ascended to the skies. He is the Lord.
We believe
that all our sins are forgiven through Him. All who have faith in Him must be
sorry for their sins, be baptized in the Holy Spirit of God, live the rules of
love and share the bread together in love, to announce the Good News to others
until Jesus comes again. We are waiting for Him. He is alive. He lives. This we
believe. Amen.
