THE PEOPLE OF GOD

ON THE WAY  

​

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.

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)
