5.24 || The Circle of Love - Passionate Mission

Teacher: Tom Vander Well
 We can flourish in exile by participating in what theologians call “The Circle of Love.” This phrase is used to describe the relationship shared by God. What do we mean by this phrase, “the Circle of Love?” The “Circle of Love” reveals that our God is a holy community—Father, Son, and Spirit. Be reminded that humanity is created in the image of (God’s) community, with a deep longing to love and to be loved. These next weeks are an invitation to be(come) like the Triune God—to belong to each other, to be one as our God is one, to refuse to live our lives alone and to intentionally invite others into the wonder of this “Circle of Love.” Living in this way enables us to flourish and to reveal the goodness of the Kingdom of God. What an invitation! What an opportunity!

 NICENE CREED
 I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the only-begotten Son of God,
begotten of the Father before all worlds,
God of God,
Light of Light,
very God of very God,
begotten, not made;
being of one substance with the Father,
by whom all things were made.

Who, for us men and for our salvation
came down from heaven;
and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary,
and was made man;
and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate;
He suffered and was buried.
And on the third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures.
and He ascended into heaven
and sits on the right hand of the Father;
and He shall come again with glory
to judge the quick and the dead;
whose kingdom shall have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Ghost,
the Lord and giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son;
who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified.
who spoke by the prophets.
And I believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church.
I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins;
and I look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
 APOSTLE'S 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
and born of the virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.

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