Paragraph 18 Basis of Union
18. THE PEOPLE OF GOD ON THE WAY
The Uniting Church affirms that it belongs to the people of God on the way to the promised end. The Uniting Church prays that, through the gift of the Spirit, God will constantly correct that which is erroneous in its life, will bring it into deeper unity with other Churches, and will use its worship, witness and service to God’s eternal glory through Jesus Christ the Lord.
Amen.
(IN SCRIPTURE)
For now
we see in a mirror, dimly,
but then we will see
face to face.
Now
I know only in part;
then I will
know fully,
even as I have been fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:12 (NRSV)
