13.5 The New Apostolic Church as part of society
13.5 The New Apostolic Church as part of society men” (Acts 5: 29). From this it is clear that, although Christians are, in prin- ciple, subject to the authority of the state, the authorities of the state are in turn subordinate to the divine laws. This position is expressed in the Tenth Article of Faith: “I believe that I am obliged to obey the worldly authorities provided no godly laws are thereby transgressed.” This means that there may be points of conflict between human laws and divine commandments. In such cases, the individual must decide, on the basis of his conviction of faith and in personal accountability to God, whether he will resist prescribed regu- lations that violate divine laws. “Prescribed regulations” are to be understood as orders issued by higher authorities. 13.5.2 Relationship to other religions and denominations The New Apostolic Church and its members respect the religious practices of other people, and refrain from making derogatory remarks concerning those of different faiths, different religions, and different denominations. They endeavour to have a good and peaceable relationship on the basis of mutual respect. The Church rejects any kind of religious fanaticism. While respecting the self-conceptions of each, the New Apostolic Church’s relationship with other Christian churches is open, and seeks to emphasise the commonalities of the Christian faith (see 6.5). 13.5.3 Social commitment The New Apostolic Church is committed to the gospel and the imperatives of Christian ethics. Thus it understands its duty to include charitable activity which benefits people irrespective of gender, age, colour, nationality, or re- ligion. Within the scope of its abilities, the Church offers assistance to those in difficult situations of life. This work is supported through the voluntary commitment of many helpers in the congregations, but also through material assistance. 467 13 New Apostolic Christians and their life of faith Wherever possible, the Church plans, promotes, and supports non-profit charitable projects that serve the common good, as well as institutions and relief operations around the world. It also works together with relief organisa- tions. SUMMARY The Ten Commandments provide orientation in the fulfilment of duties in professional life and society. (13.4) Believers are obligated to obey the regulations of state authorities. Neverthe- less, the principle from Acts 5: 29 stands above everything else: “We ought to obey God rather than men.” (13.4) To the best of its abilities and commission, the Church as an institution helps to promote the common good. (13.5) The New Apostolic Church is politically neutral. (13.5.1) The religious practices of others are to be respected. The Church rejects all manifestations of religious fanaticism. (13.5.2) The Church is committed to the gospel and the imperatives of Christian ethics. Within the scope of its abilities—and also in collaboration with aid organisations—the Church supports non-profit, charitable projects that serve the common good.

I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy universal [catholic] church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life ever- lasting. Amen.” The Creed of Nicaea-Constantinople “We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only- begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds (æons), Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salva- tion, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the virgin Mary, and was made man; He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered, and was buried, and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father; from thence He shall come again, with glory, to judge the quick and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end. And in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of life, who proceedeth from the Father and the Son who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spake by the prophets. In one holy universal [catholic] and apostolic church; we acknowl- edge one baptism for the remission of sins; we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.” 471 Appendix The New Apostolic Creed The First Article of Faith: I believe in God, the Father, the Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth. The Second Article of Faith: I believe in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried, entered the realm of the dead, rose again from the dead on the third day, and ascended into heaven. He is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty, from where He will return. The Third Article of Faith: I believe in the Holy Spirit, the one, holy, universal, and apostolic church, the community of the saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the dead, and life everlasting. The Fourth Article of Faith: I believe that the Lord Jesus rules His church and thereto sent His Apostles, and until His return still sends them with the commission to teach, to forgive sins in His name, and to baptise with water and Holy Spirit. The Fifth Article of Faith: I believe that those designated by God for a ministry are ordained only by Apostles, and that authority, blessing, and sanctification for their ministration come forth out of the Apostle ministry. The Sixth Article of Faith: I believe that the Holy Baptism with water is the first step to a renewal of a human being in the Holy Spirit, and that the person baptised is adopted into the fellowship of those who believe in Jesus Christ and profess Him as their Lord. 472 Appendix The Seventh Article of Faith: I believe that Holy Communion was instituted by the Lord Himself in mem- ory of the once brought, fully valid sacrifice, and bitter suffering and death of Christ. The worthy partaking of Holy Communion establishes our fellowship with Jesus Christ, our Lord. It is celebrated with unleavened bread and wine; both must be consecrated and dispensed by a minister authorised by an Apostle. The Eighth Article of Faith: I believe that those baptised with water must, through an Apostle, receive the gift of the Holy Spirit to attain the childhood in God and thereby the prere- quisite for becoming a firstling. The Ninth Article of Faith: I believe that the Lord Jesus will return as surely as He ascended into heaven and that He will take to Himself the firstfruits of the dead and living who have hoped for and were prepared for His coming; that after the marriage in heaven He will return to earth with them to establish His kingdom of peace, and that they will reign with Him as a royal priesthood. After the conclusion of the kingdom of peace, He will hold the Last Judgement. Then God will create a new heaven and a new earth and dwell with His people. The Tenth Article of Faith: I believe that I am obliged to obey the worldly authorities provided no godly laws are thereby transgressed. 473 Appendix The Ten Commandments The First Commandment I am the Lord, your God. You shall have no other gods before Me. The Second Commandment You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. The Third Commandment Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. The Fourth Commandment Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you. The Fifth Commandment You shall not murder. The Sixth Commandment You shall not commit adultery. The Seventh Commandment You shall not steal. The Eighth Commandment You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour. The Ninth Commandment You shall not covet your neighbour’s house. 474 Appendix The Tenth Commandment You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his fe- male servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neigh- bour’s. The Lord’s Prayer (according to Matthew 6: 9–13) “Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” 475 Appendix 476 Glossary Glossary Term Explanation Aaronic blessing accidence antitype apostolicity canon, canonical (adj.) channelling “Aaronic”—derived from the name of the first high priest, Aaron Three-part blessing formulation recorded in Numbers 6: 24–26 From Latin: accidere = “to occur” The term “accidence” refers to the outward manifestation: e.g. at Holy Communion, the wafer is the outward manifes- tation of the elements of Communion. From 1 Peter 3: 21 in the New King James Version of the Bible. In this context, the term refers to an example or fore- shadowing of baptism. One of the four distinguishing features of the church (notae ecclesiae) On the one hand, apostolicity incorporates apostolic doc- trine, and on the other hand, the activity of the Apostles. From Greek: kanón, Latin canon = “standard”, “guideline” Today this term refers to the binding compilation of the writings of the Old and New Testaments. A practice in which a medium permits his mind to be con- trolled by “spirit guides” (often purported to be those of the dead) for the purpose of communicating with them and/or asking them for guidance. 477 From Latin: concupiscere = “to ardently desire”, “to crave”, “to seek after” Technical theological term describing the human inclination to sin From Latin confessio = “profession” Creed, church affiliation (originally only in reference to the Christian denominations) The doctrine that the substances of Christ’s body and blood are joined to the substances of bread and wine during the consecration of Holy Communion. The status of being the Creator. This term applies to God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, since each of the three divine persons share in the creation of all things. From Latin denominatio = “identification”, “designation” A non-judgemental term used to denote a religious com- munity Title assigned to a document that came into being in Syria in approximately AD 100, which contains the oldest description of how the Christian church was organised The Lord Jesus’ status as the Son of God. The fact that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Glorification of God For example, the concluding words of the Lord’s Prayer— “For Yours is the kingdom ...”—are designated as a doxology. In general, the seven gatherings of Bishops convened in the period between AD 325 and AD 787 are designated as the “Ecumenical Councils”, for example the first Council of Nicaea (AD 325), the first Council of Constantinople (AD 381), and the Council of Chalcedon (AD 451). Glossary concupiscence confession consubstantiation creatorship denomination Didache divine Sonship doxology Ecumenical Councils 478 Enlightenment, the eschatology, eschatological (adj.) Eucharistic prayer historicity hypostasis Hypostatic Union, doctrine of Glossary Designation for an era (in the eighteenth century) which spread from Europe, in which rational thought was accorded the highest level of priority. Associated with it was a devalua- tion of the revealed religions in favour of a faith based solely on human reason. Doctrine of the last things This refers both to the future of the individual human being (personal eschatology) as well as to the completion of world history The prayer of thanksgiving in response to God’s grace and Christ’s sacrifice, which is spoken by the officiant after the absolution is pronounced. The term “Eucharist” is derived from the Greek word eucharistein, which means “to give thanks”. The fact that a particular biblical personage or event is also rooted in the reality of acknowledged world history. From the Greek: “foundation”, “entity” A manifestation of the divine being, today a term designating “person” in the context of the Trinity; the three divine persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit The teaching that Jesus Christ is both true God and true Man. This understanding is derived from Holy Scripture and enshrined in the creeds of the early church. This is also known as the teaching of the dual nature of Christ. inaugural vision First vision associated with a divine calling, for example Isaiah, when he was called to be a prophet (Isaiah 6: 1–8) logia “Words of the Lord” This technical term denotes compilations in which the words of Jesus Christ are summarised. 479 Greek: logos = “word” According to the prologue in the gospel of John—“In the be- ginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1: 1)—the logos is the manifestation of God in His Son Jesus Christ. Christ is thus the logos. In His person He Himself is the eternal Word of God. Designation for Mary’s song of praise as recorded in Luke 1: 46–55, corresponding to the first few words in the Latin translation of the Bible: “Magnificat anima mea Dominum” (“My soul magnifies the Lord”) The affirmation that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah—He is the Redeemer sent by God. Derived from the ancient Greek words nekrós (dead body) and manteía (“prophecy”, “divination”); this term refers to the practice of conjuring and communicating with the spirits of the dead. This practice is prohibited by God. This term refers to the special status conferred upon Simon Peter by Jesus Christ, when the latter referred to him as the rock upon which He would build His church. This special status also brings with it the authority of the keys to the kingdom of heaven (i.e. the authority to bind and to loose; cf. Matthew 16: 18–19). In the New Apostolic Church, this office is exercised by the Chief Apostle. The doctrine that all human beings are born into a state of remoteness and separation from God, owing to Adam and Eve’s fall into sin (Romans 5: 12–21). Mankind is sinful by nature, and because of this inclination to sin (concupis- cence), is necessarily distant from God. This state of remote- ness is eliminated through baptism. Glossary logos Magnificat Messiahship necromancy office of Peter / Petrine office original sin 480 Glossary Paraclete personhood From Greek: paráklētos = “He who has been summoned to help” This is how the Holy Spirit is described in the gospel of John (John 14: 16, 26; 15: 26). He is the Support, Intercessor, Helper, and Comforter. The status of being a person. This term is applied both to hu- man beings and to the individual hypostases of the triune God. pre-existence The existence of Christ before time, during time, and forever propitiation rapture, the real presence salvation history From Latin propitiāre (“to appease”); the act of appeasing a deity to incur divine favour and/or avoid divine displeasure. In Christian teaching, this was accomplished through Jesus’ sinless sacrifice on the cross, whereby He took the displea- sure, wrath, and indignation of God, which resulted from the sinfulness of mankind, upon Himself (Hebrews 2: 14–18). The moment when Jesus Christ will return and take His bride unto Himself. Both the living bridal congregation and the dead in Christ will be caught up to God at this moment (e.g. 1 Thessalonians 4: 15–17). The doctrine that the body and blood of Jesus Christ are truly present in Holy Communion (as contrasted with “spiritual presence”, i.e. presence in the spirit) The past, present, and future account of God’s activity to save mankind. Also known as the “history of salvation”, this term is used in reference to the works of God in human his- tory as opposed to the accounts of secular human history. 481 Glossary salvific -salvific activity -salvific effect -salvific power self-abasement (of Christ) self-revelation transcendence (noun), transcendent (adj.) Of, for, or pertaining to, salvation. -works of salvation; saving actions; used in reference to the works of God upon mankind for their salvation -effect for salvation; saving effect (e.g. the salvific effect of the sacraments) -capacity for salvation; ability or means to save; the power of God for salvation contained in the sacraments, the word, etc. The abased and humbled state of the Son of God (Philip- pians 2: 5–11). This term refers to the fact that Christ left the glory of the Godhead and “made Himself of no reputation”, thus lowering (or abasing) Himself to the level of “bondser- vant” (i.e. a slave) for the salvation of mankind. This humbled state already began at His birth (for example, He was born in a manger in a stable), but progressed even further, in that He ultimately allowed Himself to be degraded to the level of a criminal, at which time He was scourged, mocked, spit upon, given a crown of thorns, etc., however He remained humble and obedient to God even to the point of death on the cross. The manner in which God made Himself (i.e. His nature, es- sence, and will) known to human beings. Examples of God’s self-revelation include the creation, His intervention in his- tory, and the sending of His Son. God reveals Himself as a triune God, namely as God, the Father, God, the Son, and God, the Holy Spirit. That aspect of God’s nature and power which is completely beyond, and independent of, the physical creation Above and beyond this world; having an ongoing and unin- terrupted existence beyond the physical creation; free from the constraints of the physical creation transubstantiation According to Catholic doctrine, the transformation of the substances of bread and wine into the true body and the true blood of Jesus Christ during the Lord’s Supper 482 Glossary World Council of Churches (WCC) Largest worldwide association of Christian churches, estab- lished in Amsterdam in 1948 and headquartered in Geneva Currently there are approximately 340 churches of Ortho- dox, Anglican, Reformed, and Free Church tradition—but not the Roman Catholic Church—that belong to this organi- sation. 483 Glossary 484 Index of Bible references Genesis 1:1 . . . . . . . . . . . . 93 1:1–31 . . . . . . . . . 87, 163 1:2 . . . . . . . . . . . . 87, 150, 154 1:26 . . . . . . . . . . . 61, 87, 94 1:26 et seq. . . . . . . 163 1:26–27 . . . . . . . . 98 1:26–30 . . . . . . . . 98 1:27–28 . . . . . . . . 460 1:28 . . . . . . . . . . . 172, 462 1:28–30 . . . . . . . . 175, 188 1:31 . . . . . . . . . . . 85, 98, 175 2:1–4 . . . . . . . . . . 87 2:2–3 . . . . . . . . . . 225 2:7 . . . . . . . . . . . . 99, 153, 154 2:7–8, 19 . . . . . . . 93 2:15 . . . . . . . . . . . 465 2:16–17 . . . . . . . . 99, 163, 166 2:17 . . . . . . . . . . . 167 2:18 . . . . . . . . . . . 460 2:24 . . . . . . . . . . . 460 3:1 . . . . . . . . . . . . 365 3:1–7 . . . . . . . . . . 163 3:4–5 . . . . . . . . . . 165 3:5 . . . . . . . . . . . . 167 3:6 . . . . . . . . . . . . 166, 245 3:7–10 . . . . . . . . . 101 Index of Bible references 3:8–10 . . . . . . . . . 168 3:12 . . . . . . . . . . . 168 3:15 . . . . . . . . . . . 101, 108, 252 3:16–19 . . . . . . . . 101, 168 3:17 . . . . . . . . . . . 465 3:17–18 . . . . . . . . 176 3:19 . . . . . . . . . . . 349, 426 3:21 . . . . . . . . . . . 168 3:23–24 . . . . . . . . 167, 316 3:24 . . . . . . . . . . . 96 4:3–4 . . . . . . . . . . 454 4:4–5 . . . . . . . . . . 454 4:6–8 . . . . . . . . . . 167 4:10 . . . . . . . . . . . 178 4:15 . . . . . . . . . . . 168 6:1–8 . . . . . . . . . . 184 6:5–7 . . . . . . . . . . 167 6:17 . . . . . . . . . . . 167 8:22 . . . . . . . . . . . 98, 189 9:1 . . . . . . . . . . . . 188 9:1–3 . . . . . . . . . . 235 9:11 . . . . . . . . . . . 188 11:1–8 . . . . . . . . . 167 12:1–4 . . . . . . . . . 50 12:2–3 . . . . . . . . . 189 12:3 . . . . . . . . . . . 184 14:17–20 . . . . . . . 108 485 Index of Bible references Genesis 14:18–19 . . . . . . . 282 14:18–20 . . . . . . . 322 16:7–11 . . . . . . . . 87 16:13 . . . . . . . . . . 87 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . 87 22:1–18 . . . . . . . . 406 28:13–15 . . . . . . . 184 28:19 . . . . . . . . . . 390 Exodus 3:2–5 . . . . . . . . . . 87 3:5 . . . . . . . . . . . . 82 3:6 . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 3:14 . . . . . . . . . . . 80, 84, 221 4:22–23 . . . . . . . . 92 12:46 . . . . . . . . . . 136 13:21–22 . . . . . . . 35 15:26 . . . . . . . . . . 123 16:4–30 . . . . . . . . 225 16:4–36 . . . . . . . . 322 19:6 . . . . . . . . . . . 282 20:2–17 . . . . . . . . 214 et seq. 20:3 . . . . . . . . . . . 81 20:4–5 . . . . . . . . . 220 20:8 . . . . . . . . . . . 390 20:8–11 . . . . . . . . 225 20:9 . . . . . . . . . . . 465 20:12–17 . . . . . . . 207 20:17 . . . . . . . . . . 245 20:20 . . . . . . . . . . 177 20:24 et seq. . . . . . 390 21:12–14 . . . . . . . 232 21:16 . . . . . . . . . . 240 486 21:28–30 . . . . . . . 180 21:32 . . . . . . . . . . 130 22:1, 4, 7, 9 . . . . . . 240 25:30 . . . . . . . . . . 326 31:3 . . . . . . . . . . . 154 34:28 . . . . . . . . . . 212 Leviticus 15:14 et seq. . . . . . 455 19:2 . . . . . . . . . . . 82 19:11 . . . . . . . . . . 243 19:16–18 . . . . . . . 207 19:18 . . . . . . . . . . 198, 207 19:22 . . . . . . . . . . 410 19:33–34 . . . . . . . 207 . . . . . 180 25:39 et seq.

Neutral forms of expression were employed wherever pos- sible, but otherwise the masculine pronoun was used. This linguistic inequal- ity is not intended to discriminate but was chosen in the interests of smoother reading. To allow for greater reader friendliness, certain philological and/or scienti- fic citation methods were avoided. Omissions in citations were generally de- signated using ellipsis points (...), while insertions and explanations within citations were identified by way of square brackets ([...]). 515 Notes on the text 516
