A summary of the beliefs of the Christadelphians

statement of.faith (continued)

VIII.—That these promises had reference to Jesus Christ, who was to be raised up in the condemned line of Abraham and David, and who, though wearing their condemned nature, was to obtain a title to resurrection by perfect obedience, and, by dying, abrogate the law of condemnation for himself and all who should believe and obey him.—1 Corinthians 15:45; Hebrews 2:14–16; Romans 1:3; Hebrews 5:8, 9; 1:9; Romans 5:19–21; Galatians 4:4, 5; Romans 8:3, 4; Hebrews 2:14, 15; 9:26; Galatians 1:4; Hebrews 7:27; 5:3–7; 2:17; Romans 6:10; 6:9; ; Acts 13:34–37; Revelation 1:18; John 5:21, 22, 26, 27; 14:3; Revelation 2:7; 3:21; Matthew 25:21; Hebrews 5:9; Mark 16:16; Acts 13:38, 39; Romans 3:22; Psalm 2:6–9; Daniel 7:13, 14; Revelation 11:15; Jeremiah 23:5; Zechariah 14:9; Ephesians 1:9, 10.

IX.—That it was this mission the necessitated the miraculous begettal of Christ of a human mother, enabling him to bear our condemnation, and, at the same time, to be sinless bearer therof, and, therefore one who could rise after suffering the death required by the righteousness of God.—Matthew 1:18–25; Luke 1:26–35; Galatians 4:4; Isaiah 7:14; Romans 1:3, 4; 8:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 2:14–17; 4:15.

X.—That being so begotten of God, and inhabited and used by God through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was Emmanuel, God with us, God manifest in the flesh—yet was, during his natural life, of like nature with mortal man, being made of a woman, of the house and lineage of David, and therefore a sufferer, in the days of his flesh, from all the effects that came by Adam’s transgression, including the death that passed upon all men, which he shared by partaking of their physical nature.—Matthew 1:23; 1 Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 2:14; Galatians 4:4; Hebrews 2:17.
