Against Christendumb

Many Evangelicals are afraid that confessing the creeds might "lead to a Pope." The fact of the matter is that the opposite is true. A rejection of creeds and confessions leads to popery; a multiplied million little popes scurrying about with their own private interpretations, adjudicated by a magisterium of one. In such a state, one risks becoming untethered from the historic faith of the Church. Every lone wolf then has to wrestle afresh with old heresies against which most moderns are ill equipped, or else struggle over concepts for which they lack the requisite theological (or philosophical) grammar. Learning the language of the creeds is like learning our doctrinal ABC's; understanding the logic behind that language is like mastering the algebra of the Faith. This is just the sort of education we need in order to stand with the Church against Christendumb.
