The CLC is a confessional Lutheran church body which is dedicated to proclaiming
the Good News of Christ crucified for sinners. It is represented by congregations
throughout the United States and Canada, as well as in Africa and India. |
|
Our teachings and practices are as narrow and broad as the Scriptures themselves,
since we bow only to the authority of our Lord's inerrant Word. The
salvation won for us through the suffering, death, and resurrection of
Jesus Christ is the driving force behind our efforts as a confessional
Lutheran body. |
All of the CLC member churches confess that the Bible is the inspired and
unerring Word of God. They confess the creeds of the Lutheran Church
without qualification, as they are found in the Book of Concord of 1580.
Scripture itself is the source and foundation of Christian teaching and
faith -- The Lutheran confessions are a faithful setting forth of what
Scripture teaches. The name of our church body is a witness to what
we believe; it is a continual reminder of our responsibility to be truly
Lutheran, and therefore Scriptural in our teaching and in our practice.
This principle holds true among us: "If it is not Scripture; it is not
Lutheran!" |
