As we begin a new year, I have decided to return to the basics and really take a look at what core foundational beliefs need to be in place for someone who truly wants to follow Jesus' example in every area of life. What are those things that, when all is stripped away, are the non-negotiables of following Jesus?
So far my thoughts have brought me to 4 items that are key in setting up that foundation:
1. An ever growing understanding of who God is and belief that His ways are good 2. An understanding of and belief in what God did on our behalf to redeem us as well as restore our relationship with Him 3. A consistant, on-going relationship with God built on communication (prayer), trust, and faith. 4. A belief in the truth of scripture inspired under God's control
Now I am not looking to get into a theological or doctrinal debate over this, but I would love to read your ideas on what you think are the essential, non-negotiable, core beliefs that all of us share no matter our denominational or doctrinal stance.
