What We Believe Guinston's beliefs are rooted in the Bible. They are restated in many of the traditional creeds and confessions (the Nicene Creed, the Apostles' Creed, the Westminster Confession, etc. See below). Some beliefs we hold to be true are listed here concisely for your examination. Truth Affirming - In a day in which absolute Truth is considered absent and in a society whose moral epitome is tolerance, Guinston affirms that not only is there Truth, but God has revealed it to us through His inspired Word, the Bible, and the Word in the flesh, Jesus Christ. Biblically Based - The people at Guinston base all beliefs and teachings squarely on the foundation of God's inerrant Word, the Bible. Community Oriented - When God created humans, He did so in His image, male and female. God created people to live in community with one another, and the tradition of community continues here. Life Affirming - Guinston's leadership agrees that life is a precious gift from God and, from the moment of conception to the point of natural death, no one but God Himself has the right to end a life. Pro-Family - In recent decades many people have fought to change the idea of God's plan for families. The leadership believes that God has made it clear through many scriptures that husband and wife need to be united in love for a life time. This is God's best plan and hope for families. The Apostle’s Creed We
believe
in God, the Father Almighty,
Who was
conceived of the Holy Spirit, He descended into hell. The third day He arose again from the dead.
He
ascended into heaven
I
believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, Amen.
