Heritage is the byproduct of the past. It survived the test of time, which is widely cherished and practiced in a community. It is synonymous to tradition or legacy.

Some practices, however, may diminish. For example, Abraham in Genesis underwent circumcision according to God’s command. It became the hallmark of the covenant people Israel. It helped them to remember God’s promise. The circumcision became the requirement in the Old Testament. The Jews still practice it today. The circumcision, however, became optional in the New Testament. The heritage was reviewed and, in some respects, abolished in Christianity (Galatians). Another example is sacraments. The Catholic church established 7 sacraments over a millennium. The Protestant church reduced them to 2 sacraments: communion and baptism.

This site does not cover everything about Christian heritage. Instead, it focuses on the heritage that characterizes our church. It is summarized by Spiritual Legacy. Additional materials are listed in Heritage Collection.
