Faith in Christ Drives Living Church, Not Creeds
A March 19 1950 living faith lesson argues that Christian faith is belief IN Jesus Christ, not in God’s Fatherhood alone or in creeds. It cites Scripture, early church views, and a Muslim convert’s remark that Christianity offers Jesus Christ, not theology alone, as the church’s living power. The piece emphasizes Christ alive through believers’ lives.
