It is impossible to separate health care from religion. Throughout history, coexistence has been underscored by the permeation of both into each other's domains.

In Christianity, creeds play a significant role in enhancing faith. First, the creed is the rule of faith for all Christians. It provides clear ways on how Christians think about God and the whole history of salvation. Thus, the creed prevents Christians from making wrong decisions.
