The thread has drawn me back in
I think that i have an answer for the back and forth between 30 cal and covey ridge.
orthodox (not the denonmenation but the defination) christians believe in a couple of creeds and confess them. The apostles creed the nicine creed and the athanisian creed. My guess is that 30 cal would have no problem confessing a couple of them. My other guess is that Covey would not. Please feel free to correct me if i am wrong.
The way i see it a true or bible believing christian believes some basic truths
1) God is a trinity (father son holy spirit)
2) Jesus is fully god but fully man
3) Jesus literally and physically died on the cross
4) Jesus death paid the penalty of sin (free gift but must be accepted)
5) Jesus was literally and physicaly resurected from the dead and believers look forward to the resurction that they will experience
The above list are pretty much what the creeds define but with an elagance i dont have.
