Since our congregation has recently transitioned to the Global Methodist Church, I thought it would be a good idea to look at the basic doctrine of the denomination. The class uses the GMC Catechism which is based on the Nicene Creed and foundational documents of Methodism (the Articles of Religion and Confession of Faith). By starting with these documents the GMC is emphasizing its doctrinal unity with the broad ecumenical consensus, the Anglican tradition within the Protestant tradition, and the Wesleyan movement.
Here are the documents and links so far (the class is in progress, so this post will be updated until we’re finished):
- The “Book” – The GMC Catechism plus basic documents from the Transitional Book of Doctrines and Discipline
