Our Beliefs at Tetelestai Church


The following is an exercise in succinctness. This creed, in 22 articles, summarizes the beliefs held by Tetelestai Church in a very abbreviated form. A creed or statement of beliefs is not an explanation or an expansion of what is believed. That is left to the pastor and teacher, the theologian, the dogmatician, and all Christian witnesses of Jesus Christ. The Biblical references are but a tiny sample of Scriptural warrants for those beliefs. If one is interested, the explanation and expansion of this creed may be found in the hundreds of Biblical messages available on tetelestai.org.
