Jude says that the faith was once for all delivered to the Saints and that faith is embedded in the old and in the New Testaments it's our task to recognize it and to believe it so I I don't think that it's necessary to add to the faith that we have um I think that we need to recognize what has been defined for us and worked out for us in the face of increasing heresies over the centur largely that's where the older at least the Creeds come from responding to heresies but uh you know I think it was William Perkins who made the point that um old heresies simply appear new heresies are simply old heresies revived
