| Why, then, is it important to include this clause as part of the church's credal articulation? |
|
| Nevertheless, the powerful reminder of the link between credal formulation and liturgical adoration remains. |
|
| Some will reply that they will be delighted to have an Archbishop who asserts central credal doctrines. |
|
| We think that an inquiry can progress by moving from one falsehood to another falsehood, or from one imperfect credal state to another. |
|
| The ancient church shows us some precedents for an interrogative credal formulary in baptism. |
|
| It is often assumed, however, that that process can achieve 'closure' in a completed set of infallible credal beliefs. |
|
| Nor does the completion of the canon of Scripture rule out the use of credal statements as tests of orthodoxy and summaries of Scriptural teaching. |
|
| Having successfully defended credal veritism in this way, she can then appeal to its truth to derive Probabilism. |
|
| However, the credal formulary and the classic formula shared status as legitimate and normative methods of entering the baptismal covenant, until well into the middle of the eighth century. |
|
| The intervals aren't necessarily interpretable as sets of probability functions: that is, they can violate some of the properties of credal sets discussed in the formal appendix. |
|
| The credal veritist and her opponent might agree that the argument at least establishes a conditional: if credal veritism is true, then probabilism is true. |
|
| An interrogative, credal formula for baptism was used for many centuries. |
|
| The formulation of this experience into credal formulas and dogmatic propositions took a long time, but the constant point of reference was apostolic tradition and the Scriptures. |
|
| Besides the three Ecumenical Creeds, which date to Roman times, the Book of Concord contains seven credal documents articulating Lutheran theology in the Reformation era. |
