Welcome - About CTC - What We Believe - Our Beliefs
Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired written word of God, the infallible rule of faith and practice.
We
believe that there is one living and true God, creator of heaven and
earth, things visible and invisible, eternally existing in three
persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We
believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son,
conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. His sinless life,
His vicarious death on the cross for sin, His bodily resurrection, His
ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return and
rule of His Kingdom on earth in power and glory.
We
believe Salvation to be wholly by grace, through repentance of sin and
faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that all who do so through
regeneration by the Holy Spirit experience the new birth and become
overcomers through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, which enable all
believers to live victorious lives.
We
believe in the Holy Ordinances of the Church, Baptism [by immersion]
and the Lord’s Supper. We believe that these two ordinances should be
observed and administered until the return of Jesus Christ.
We
believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they that
are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the
resurrection of damnation.
