Beliefs
- We believe the Bible is the written word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and without error in the original manuscripts. The Bible is the revelation of God’s truth and is infallible and authoritative in all matters of faith and practice.
- We believe in the Holy Trinity. There is one God, who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
- We believe that all are sinners and totally unable to save themselves from God’s displeasure, except by His mercy.
- We believe that salvation is by God alone as He sovereignly chooses those He will save. We believe His choice is based on His grace, not on any human individual merit, or foreseen faith.
- We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who through His perfect life and sacrificial death atoned for the sins of all who will trust in Him, alone, for salvation.
- We believe that God is gracious and faithful to His people, not simply as individuals but as families in successive generations according to His Covenant promises.
- We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells God’s people and gives them the strength and wisdom to trust Christ and follow Him.
- We believe that Jesus will return, bodily and visibly, to judge all mankind and to receive His people to Himself.
- We believe that all aspects of our lives are to be lived to the glory of God under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
About CUF
History
Christ United Fellowship was founded in 2014 in Orlando, Florida. The first public worship services began in January 2015.
Catechisms
We utilize the Westminster Confession of Faith with the Larger and Shorter Catechisms.
Denomination
We are members of the Presbyterian Church of America (PCA).
Doctrine
Our form of doctrine is also scriptural and reformed. We hold onto a theology that is true-to-the-Bible. We strive to follow Christ and His Apostles.
Government
We hold to a Presbetyrian church government. This means that elders (also called presbyters) govern the local church. They are also elected by the people.
There are two kinds of elders: teaching and ruling elders. Teaching elders are pastors. Their main responsibility is to the ministry of the Word of God. Ruling elders partner with teaching elders in governing the local church. (See Acts 20:17; Titus 15-7.)
The elders sit in a “session.” This session has the oversight of the faith and life of the local church congregation.
