TCS Statement of Faith

We believe...

1. The Bible is verbally inspired by God and free from error. It is the Word of God, and the only infallible rule of faith and practice.

2. There is but one living and true God, existing eternally in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, the same in substance, equal in power and glory.

3. God created man, male and female, in His own image, in knowledge, righteousness and holiness, with dominion over the creation. Our first parents fell from this estate by sinning against God, so all mankind by their fall lost communion with God, are under His wrath and curse, utterly unable to save themselves, and so made liable to all the miseries of this life, to death itself, and to the pains of hell forever.

4. The only Savior is the Lord Jesus Christ who, being the eternal Son of God, at God's appointed time, was conceived in the womb of the Virgin Mary by the Holy Spirit, and so became man. He thus was, and continues to be, God and man, with two distinct natures perfectly joined in one person, forever. The Lord Jesus died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, as our substitute, to satisfy divine justice.

5. On the third day after His crucifixion, our Lord Jesus Christ rose from the dead. He ascended into Heaven, and there sits at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for the saints, and He will return to judge the living and the dead.

6. The salvation of lost and sinful man is a free gift of God's grace, apart from works, based solely upon Christ's death on our behalf.

7. Man's chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.

8. There is a spiritual unity of all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ.
