What We Believe...

sanc
Kobe Union Church is a Inter-denominational Christian church with Protestant roots that strives for unity in Christ and in His truth. We teach the Bible as God's truth and salvation through Jesus Christ and His work on the cross on our behalf. We also honor the various Christian practices from different Christian denominations that are rooted in scripture.

We accept the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds, symbols of our oneness with Christians around the world and across the centuries.

The Nicene Creed

We believe
in one God,  the Father, the Almighty,  maker of heaven and earth,  of all that is, seen and unseen. 

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,  the only son of God, eternally begotten of the Father,  God from God, Light from Light,  true God from true God, begotten, not made,  of one being with the Father.  Through him all things were made.  For us and for our salvation  he came down from heaven:  by the power of the Holy Spirit    he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,  and was made man.  For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;  he suffered death and was buried.  On the third day he rose again    in accordance with the Scriptures;  he ascended into heaven    and is seated at the right hand of the Father.  He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,  who proceeds from the Father and the Son.  With the Father and the Son    he is worshipped and glorified.  He has spoken through the Prophets.  We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.  We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.  We look for the resurrection of the dead,  and the life of the world to come. AMEN.


The Apostles Creed

I believe
in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ,  his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
 he descended to the dead.
 On the third day he rose again;
 he ascended into heaven,
 is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and will come again to judge the living
and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic (universal) church, the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body
and the life everlasting. Amen
