Published in Christian Doctrine 2 mins read

The Christian Family Care (CFC) statement of faith outlines the fundamental theological beliefs that guide the organization, primarily focusing on its core convictions regarding the person and work of Jesus Christ.

Core Tenets of the CFC Statement of Faith

The CFC statement of faith articulates specific core beliefs that include:

  • Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ: Acknowledging Jesus Christ as fully divine, sharing the nature of God.
  • His Virgin Birth: The belief in Jesus' miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit, born to the Virgin Mary.
  • His Sinless Life: Affirmation that Jesus lived a life completely free from sin, serving as the perfect example and sacrifice.
  • His Miracles: Acceptance of the supernatural acts performed by Jesus during His earthly ministry, demonstrating His divine power and authority.
  • His Vicarious and Atoning Death through His Shed Blood: The conviction that Jesus' death on the cross was a substitutionary act, where He bore the penalty for humanity's sins, and through His shed blood, provided reconciliation with God.
  • His Bodily Resurrection: Belief in Jesus' literal and physical rising from the dead three days after His crucifixion, signifying His triumph over sin and death.
  • His Ascension to the Right Hand of the Father: Recognition of Jesus' physical ascent into heaven, where He now holds a position of supreme authority at God the Father's right hand.
  • His Personal Return in Power and Glory: The expectation of Jesus Christ's literal, visible, and triumphant second coming to earth.

These foundational beliefs underpin the mission and operations of Christian Family Care, reflecting their commitment to a specific and traditional understanding of Christian doctrine. For further detail, the complete CFC Statement of Faith document provides a comprehensive overview of these tenets.
