Balancing Reason and Doctrine
The article discusses the concept of creed and its importance. It emphasizes that the creed is a comprehensive intellectual structure typically based on divine revelation or religion, and it is held with certainty that leaves no room for doubt. In contrast, a belief is an individual mental judgment that may be correct or false. It clarifies that a sound faith-based creed is rooted in monotheism, and that humans have become lost and misled throughout history due to the distortion and falsification of creeds, especially those introduced by enemies of religion, such as the Jewish distortion of the creed and the corruption of Christianity. The article defines a genuine faith-based creed as one singular, based on trustworthy divine revelation, whereas deviant beliefs arise from personal desires and doubts, leading to incorrect convictions. It concludes that reason leads to the certainty of rejecting doubts about the correct creed, and that the heavenly religions came to establish monotheism and to steer away from polytheism and intellectual ignorance.
