How is our profession connected to the truth of the Gospel?

The essence of our profession is succinctly articulated in the faith we share concerning Jesus Christ. It affirms that He is God, that we are sinful, and that He, being fully God and fully man, accomplished perfect obedience and righteousness on our behalf. This profession not only reflects core Gospel truths but also creates unity among believers. When we say, 'Lord, remember me,' as the thief did, we acknowledge that our hope rests solely in Christ's finished work and His faithfulness to save His people.
