THE UNITED CATHOLIC CHURCH

    Ecumenical, Inclusive, Non-Judgmental, and Independent;       

As Christians, we believe:

X That scripture, which is composed of the Old and New Testaments, is the primary, sufficient, and reliable source of our beliefs;

X In the creeds produced by the early Councils of the undivided Church;

X In one loving, personal God in three divine persons;

X That Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God;

X That Christ died for us, rose from the dead, and will come again;

X That we are saved by grace through faith and are made new by the Holy Spirit;

X That if we trust in Jesus, our life will change;

X In one holy, Catholic, and apostolic church made up of all Christian believers;

X In working for the unity with diversity of the church, the Body of Christ; and

X In obeying the Great Commandments to love God and love our neighbor.

Further, we hold to these additional marks of the Catholic Christian:
We believe,

X That through the Apostolic Succession, God empowers clergy for ministry;

X That through the Holy Spirit, the sacraments impart the grace, which they signify; and

X That Jesus is present in the Holy Eucharist.

X That living out our faith gives God glory and spreads God's love far more effectively than any sermon.
