Excerpt from Baptist Beliefs

A creed is like a crystal with many angles and facets. AS the crystal is formed in obe dience to natural law, so a creed is formed in obedience to a spiritual law. Michael Angelo chiseled the marble into the heroic figure of Moses as the expression of his artistic vision. The great creeds are the chiseled results sof Spiritual vision. What men see and feel they must express. Doctrinal statements are given exact form for the same reason an Indian makes his arrow straight and sharp. Both are designed as weapons, or implements to achieve.
