Affirms

Accepted as Scripture; Trinitarian affirmation; testify to Father, Word, and Spirit

The Cherubim and Seraphim Church accepts the Comma Johanneum (1 John 5:7b-8a) as part of Scripture. The passage's affirmation that 'the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one' aligns with the Church's Trinitarian theology. This explicit statement of Trinitarian doctrine is valued in the Church's understanding of God as three in one.

The Church does not engage in extensive textual criticism but accepts the passage as authoritative Scripture that supports Trinitarian faith. This reflects the Church's practical approach to Scripture and its focus on doctrinal content rather than historical textual questions.
