What is your doctrinal stance?

We find our roots as a church in the rich simplicity of Christ and the Apostles. Since then, the church universal has wrestled and debated doctrinal issues to both the help and detriment to the mission of Christ. Here at Missio Dei, we appreciate the clearly and simplicity of the the following two early creeds: The Apostles Creed and The Nicene Creed as a guide to living out Christian faith in the present age.

Our approach to doctrinal issues is also non-complicated as there are certain things that we hold to tightly as a church, which form for us to core of our identity as followers of Christ. These doctrines are as follows:
    The sacred and authoritative nature of scripture.
    The Trinitarian nature of God, as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
    The Beauty and Depravity of Mankind
    The salvation of God offered in Jesus Christ
    One catholic (universal) and Apostolic Church
    The consummation of creation and Judgment of God
On the other hand, there are doctrines that we do not believe are worth fighting over, as the goal of the church is unity and not unanimity. These kinds of doctrines are as follows:
    The "how" of creation and the age of the world
    The existence of certain spiritual gifts
    Escatology or the "end of the world"
