CLC is an Apostolic Pentecostal Church...
What Does It Mean To Be Apostolic? We see direct and practical application of Jesus’ teachings in the lives and acts of the apostles. To put it simple, to be apostolic means to walk in the ways and teaching of Jesus the way the Apostles did. In other words, to be apostolic is to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.
They were apostolic in doctrine and preached one message with the Old Testament as the foundation and the New Testament its fulfilment. The Old Testament tells of the coming of the Messiah and the more perfect covenant between God and man. In the New Testament, we see Jesus as God in flesh, the way the Truth and the light, establishing a new covenant with Man with the indwelling of His Spirit and the remission of sins.
“Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”
Acts 2:38 (KJV)
