I believe in One Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son

In this episode Pastor Ian Thompson explores the Christological heart of the Nicene Creed, focusing on the confession: “I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only‑begotten Son of God.” The sermon presents this declaration not as a human invention but as a protective wall safeguarding the biblical gospel from ancient heresies and modern distortions.

Pastor Thompson examines the titles “Lord” and “Christ”, showing how they affirm Jesus’s divine nature, eternal existence, and unique relationship with the Father. The study distinguishes Christ’s eternal Sonship from the created status of Adam or the adopted status of believers, emphasising that His full deity is indispensable for human salvation.

The episode highlights how the Creed anchors the Church in a scriptural understanding of Jesus as both fully God and fully man, the only Saviour capable of reconciling humanity to the Father.

This reflection invites listeners to rediscover the depth, clarity, and comfort found in confessing Christ as the eternal Son — the One who reveals the Father, redeems the world, and reigns forever.
