Christian Legacy Foundation Doctrinal Statement

The beliefs that guide CLF are at work every day and are based on our doctrinal
statement:
• We believe that the entire Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God; the only
infallible rule of faith and practice.
• We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons; Father, Son
and Holy Spirit.
• We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, conceived by the
Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was true Man and is true God.
• We believe that in this age, God manifests Himself through the Holy Spirit, who
is a distinct personality, eternally coexistent with the Father and the Son, whose
basic task is to convict sinners, regenerate those who believe, and empower
believers to live godly lives and in every way glorify the Father and the Son
through His indwelling presence.
• We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and thereby
incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death which was eternal
separation from God and is upon all men.
• We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the
Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who
believe in Him are justified on the basis of His shed blood.
• We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was resurrected in body, ascended into
Heaven, presently lives there for us as High Priest and Advocate, and that His
personal, physical return to earth is imminent.
• We believe that there will be a bodily resurrection of both the just and the unjust,
the just to the everlasting blessedness of the saved and the unjust to the
everlasting conscious suffering of the lost.
