of discernment, not a simple

matter of logical deduction.
Beliefs
2. Centered-set communities must commit to truth as a
way of life in order to lessen the problems that come
from self-ignorance & self-deception in the search for
the common center.
3. This process of discernment should be a community
process where each member of the community commits
to stay in community.
4. The community discernment process should be
Bible-based because Scripture is the most reliable
witness we have to the character of Jesus.
