In this sermon, Shane Dirks introduces a new series on the Nicene Creed by exploring its purpose and significance for the Christian faith. Drawing from Isaiah 40 and the opening line of the Creed, he explains how the early church developed the Creed to clearly identify the true God in response to false teaching, particularly around the nature of Jesus. Shane emphasises that the Creed serves to both define who God is—one, eternal, almighty Creator—and to unite believers across time and cultures. The message highlights the importance of right belief (“we believe”) over mere ritual, emotion, or cultural expression, calling listeners to trust in and correctly identify the one true God who reveals himself as Father and sustains his people.
