Timothy J Winterstein: Worshiped and Glorified: A Study of the Nicene Creed, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Trace the Nicene Creed's connection to Scripture, worship, and the Holy Spirit so you confess "I believe" with greater clarity, confidence, and lasting comfort.

For centuries, Christians have confessed the Nicene Creed together in worship. This study invites you to go deeper into the words you already know, uncovering the rich biblical and historical foundations behind each line.

Worshiped and Glorifiedwalks phrase by phrase through the Creed, connecting each confession to Scripture, the history of Nicaea and Constantinople, and the questions that continue to shape Christian faith today: Who is Jesus? How is God one, and yet Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?

In this eight-session study, Pastor Timothy J. Winterstein shows how the Creed serves as a trusted guide into the Bible, helping believers read and confess the faith with greater precision and assurance. You will see why phrases like begotten, not made , of one substance with the Father , and Lord and Giver of life were worth decades of careful debate, and why they still matter for how Christians worship, believe, and live. Each session treats the Creed not as abstract theology, but as a living confession rooted in Scripture and centered on God's saving work in Christ.

In this study, you will:

• Reconnect every line of the Nicene Creed to its scriptural foundation
• Understand the historical debates that shaped its language and meaning
• See what is at stake in rightly confessing who Christ is
• Recognize the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Church
• Grow in clarity, confidence, and depth as you confess the Christian faith

Designed for adult Bible studies, small groups, or personal study, this guide bridges Scripture, history, and worship, showing how an ancient creed continues to form and strengthen believers today.
