Truth, Life and Community?
Truth
Though many today would claim that truth is relative or unknowable, we believe
that Christianity stands upon very clear and specific truth claims. Jesus
Himself said that we must believe who he claimed to be, and hold to his
teachings. We want people to wrestle with the truth (through the Bible-
God's word), and to see that the gospel speaks to every need and every
area of life. Through exposure to truth, we hope that many will come
to know the One who is truth, Jesus Christ.
Life
Christianity is not just a moral system. It has a moral system, but that
is not what it is. We believe that Christianity is not intended to make
us better people; the gospel makes us new people. It brings new life
for those who are dead in sin, and brings us hope for the hopeless. We
hope that those who come to see that Jesus is the truth, will also see
that He is life.
Community
It is often said that religion is a private matter. But Christianity is not;
Christianity is not something that can be lived out alone. The believer
is called to live within a very special community - the Church. This
is good news in a society where many feel disenfranchised and isolated.
We taste the life of Heaven together. We face our struggles together.
LTCC is committed to building up and inviting people into this unique
and loving family called the body of Christ.
