The important thing is faith-the kind of faith that works through love.
Galations 5:6
Symbols are important. Some of them, like communion and baptism, illustrate the cross of Christ. They symbolize salvation... but they do not impart salvation.
Putting your trust in a symbol is like claiming to be a sailor because you have a tattoo...
Our God... saves us, not because we trust in a symbol, but because we trust in a Savior.
From 'Everyday Blessings' by Max Lucado
Let us journey on... in faith...
