Communal Creed
From LanceaSanctum
A creed rumored to have been influenced by the Communist Revolution in Eastern Europe during the last century, reputedly used in Delaware by Bishop J.W. Ghoren, a vocal Unifier.
I believe in One, All-Powerful God, Creator of All Things seen and unseen.
I believe in the Word, His only Son, conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit to redeem Man from Sin through His death and resurrection, which brought about a new and everlasting Covenant between God and Man.
I believe in the Spear of Destiny, forged in the fires of history and set with the Purpose of revealing the divinity of the Word, and wielded with Purpose by a Centurion destined to reveal a new purpose for the world's Damned.
I believe that Longinus, for a life of sin, was chosen for a revelatory role in the Passion that set the World ablaze in the Spirit of the Word, and that through his final acts of sin, he was cursed to a Damned unlife.
I believe that Longinus wandered and suffered with his curse, but through Revelation from the Angel Vahishtael did come to understand the Purpose of the Damned on earth, and his mission to charge them with it. I believe that he took a single Childe, the Monachus, to help him spread the Word of the Damned and collect the first Dark Apostles
I believe that the Damned are the agents of God's will, chosen to receive the Embrace that we may test mankind and reveal the divinity within each of them. For our sins we are deserving of Hell, and yet through the Damnation of the Requiem, we may continue to find purpose in God's Holy Plan.
I believe in the Dark Miracles of the Sanctified, that they were shown to the Damned at Thebes by the angel Amoniel. I believe that we are to use and teach the Miracles with restraint and respect, for they are Holy.
I believe that the Danse we move to can be boon or bane to the fulfillment of our Holy Purpose, and that His Plan for us is best realized in our cooperation and peaceful co-execution of it. Working together, Sanctified can show Damned the Dark Path and all Damned may drive Mortals to His Light.
I believe the Damned have a unique relationship with Sin, cursed and charged to take the blood of men yet scourged by a Beast fed by every indulgence of our own wickedness, and that we must endeavor to master Sin, recognizing the effect of our Sins and using them only as a tool to serve our Purpose.
I believe that the End of Days will come, when all souls shall be judged by the Word, and that our dutiful service to Him as Damned until then may help to make us worthy of His infinite mercy, for which we are unworthy to ask.
