Reasons we are walking through our Church Confession:
1. To help everyone one of us understand WHO we are as a church family- and WHY = Clarity & Unity
2. To give you information so to confidently answer when someone asks, “So what kind of church is V&B anyway?”

Godly Culture fulfills both the Dominion Mandate and the Great Commission. It is our shared life, where all of us live the Word while teaching the Word – for God’s glory and the increase of the kingdom.

Creeds and confessions are tools – humble helpers that focus our attention on God, help us summarize biblical truth, distill it into memorable guidelines and exalt Christ as supreme!

Jesus is the creator, the sustainer, the upholder of all life, and supreme over all beings in heaven and on earth. He conquered sin, declared His work finished, and sits in authority at the right hand of God.

Because God has freed us from slavery to sin and guaranteed eternal life for us, we must live as model citizens; always devoted to good works that are profitable and excellent for humanity, patterned after God’s nature, and founded on the Gospel.

The Gospel is not merely that good news, which tells us that Jesus Christ came to bring salvation only, but also that he came to purify for Himself a People for His own possession who are ZEALOUS for good works.

Today we will see false leaders identified and a call to live purely and participate in protecting the church by discerning true leadership and false, and by following faithfully those who hold firm to the trustworthy word.

The Elders are primary models and teachers of God’s order, which is most evident in the household, displayed through character and built on God’s Word.

Christ’s church is built when all members align their knowledge with their actions, and work together demonstrating good works, self-control, and ordered lives, motivated by the eternal kingship of Jesus on earth.

Habits shape our values and hearts. Intentional habits (liturgies) are acts of worship that align us with God's Truth. The goal of this sermon is to encourage intentional habits - or liturgies - that help us know and live God's truth.
