Our Beliefs
Here at Jeremiah’s Vow we hold to the historic Christian faith as it has been preserved in the Apostles Creed and Nicene Creed. They have been included here.
The Apostles Creed is one of the oldest statements of faith in the history of the Christian church, dating to the end of the first century. The Nicene Creed is an expansion of the Apostles Creed. It includes some clarity with regard to the doctrine of the Trinity and the incarnation. I have included them both because they are theologically rich and historically significant.
