The only creed of the Brethren is the New Testimate, which we believe is Holy Inspired. From which arise the following beliefs.
- Jesus Christ is the son of God and the Savior of the world
- Belief in the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- Reject infant baptism in favor of believer baptism. Those old enough to confess their faith being immersed in water 3 times.
- Adherence to the principle of conscientious objection to all wars.
Inearlier times , Brethren dressed much like the Amish and had actual dess codes, but that practice has since passed away in most of their churches.
The Church of the Brethren promotes the principles of “peace and reconciliation, simple living, integrity of speech, family values, and service to neighbors near and far.”
- ‘Moderation in things good’
- “Abstinence from things harmful’.
