I. God has revealed himself to be the living and true God, perfect in love and righteous in all his ways; one in essence, existing eternally in the three persons of the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. II. God, who discloses himself through his creation, has savingly spoken in the words and events of redemptive history. This history is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the incarnate Word, who is made known to us by the Holy Spirit in sacred Scripture. III. Scripture is an essential part and trustworthy record of this divine self-disclosure. All the books of the Old and New Testaments, given by divine inspiration, are the written word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice. They are to be interpreted according to their context and purpose and in reverent obedience to the Lord who speaks through them in living power. IV. God, by his word and for his glory, freely created the world of nothing. He made man and woman in his own image, as the crown of creation, that they might have fellowship with him. Tempted by Satan, they rebelled against God. Being estranged from their Maker, yet responsible to him, they became subject to divine wrath, inwardly depraved, and, apart from grace, incapable of returning to God. V. The only Mediator between God and humankind is Christ Jesus our Lord, God's eternal Son, who, being conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, fully shared and fulfilled our humanity in a life of perfect obedience. By his death in our stead, he revealed the divine love and upheld divine justice, removing our guilt and reconciling us to God. Having redeemed us from sin, the third day he rose bodily from the grave, victorious over death and the powers of darkness. He ascended into heaven where, at Godís right hand, he intercedes for his people and rules as Lord over

  • Pastor, Author Rick Warren Tells Retirement Plans
    Pastor, author Rick Warren tells retirement plans LAKE FOREST, Ca. (BP and local reports) – Pastor and best- selling author Rick Warren announced June 6 that he is retiring from his role as senior pastor of Saddleback Church, the Southern Baptist congregation he founded in California in 1980 that is now considered a multi-campus megachurch. In his Sunday worship service message titled, How to Discern the Best Time to Make a Major Change, the 67-year-old Warren said Saddleback will begin the official search for his successor in the next week and that when the new lead pastor is in place, he will transition to the role of founding pastor. Warren recounted his pledge when the church was founded that he would give the next 40 years to leading the Saddleback family. Early in 2020, the church celebrated its 40th birthday. “This is not the end of my ministry,” Warren told the congregation via video and in person at the Lake Forest campus. “It’s not even the beginning of the end. …We’re going to take one step at a time in the timing of God. …God has already blessed me more than I could ever possibly imagine. I don’t deserve any of it, and so this next transition in my life is something I am anticipating with zero regrets, zero fears, zero worries.” “This is not the end of my ministry. It’s not even the beginning of the end. …We’re going to take one step at a time in the timing of God. Warren said the church presently does not have a successor in mind, and that they would look both inside and outside the church for “a leader who is already doing some ‘purpose- driven’ ministry” — a term synonymous with Warren’s life, leadership, and authorship.

  • ABSTRACT GEORGE W. BUSH's FAITH-BASED INITIATIVE By
    ABSTRACT GEORGE W. BUSH’S FAITH-BASED INITIATIVE by Christopher M. Kromer This paper examines the Bush administration’s introduction of the federal faith-based initiative program, a funding and service delivery scheme that combines the resources of the federal government with the social and institutional authority of faith communities. In an attempt to explain the genesis and popularity of the faith-based movement, this paper endeavors to show that, when both the personal faith of George W. Bush and the history of religious engagement in American political discourse are considered, the faith-based initiative is neither novel nor surprising. Instead, it represents the latest effort to combine the power of government with the appeal of religion, a trend that has continued into the Obama administration. GEORGE W. BUSH’S FAITH-BASED INITIATIVE A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Comparative Religion by Christopher M.

  • 2005 Annual Report
    Annual Report Annual Report Page 1 Center for East Asian Studies University of Kansas Page 2 Center for East Asian Studies From the Director Greetings from another acting (and former) director. Bill Tsutsui and I have taken turns filling in for Elaine Gerbert, while she completes a research project begun last year with the support of an NEH Faculty Research Fellowship. Elaine will return to the Center next fall. Bill, author of Godzilla on My Mind and authority on radioactively generated monsters, took the helm fall 2004 as Godzilla stomped through Lawrence, rising (inflating) spectacularly over Liberty Hall, terrorizing movie viewers, inspiring conference papers, and winning CEAS international news coverage. Bill reports in this issue on the array of events that he and Michiko Ito organized to celebrate our favorite green monster’s 50th birthday. I came on board last January, just in time for the CEAS Lunar New Years party. Under the expert leadership of CEAS office manager Jun Fu, teams of students and other guests at this annual event learned the craft of Chinese dumpling making and fed over 200 guests. The inclusion of both Chinese and Korean food, customs, and entertainment made for a wonderfully renao (Chinese: “hot & noisy,” i.e. “lively, cheery”) party. Korea was the focus of the Center’s major spring 2005 events. We presented a pair of conferences, “Korea Today” and “The Korean War in Historical Perspective,” in conjunction with the dedication of KU’s handsome new Korean War Memorial (cover photograph). I was pleased to work with the Office of International Programs in planning these events, which featured visiting experts on Korean politics and the history of the Korean War and showcased the growing number of CEAS faculty with expertise in Korean history, society, and culture.
