St.
Timothy Lutheran Church, Charleston, West Virginia, places its complete confidence in the
Gospel of Jesus Christ. Therefore, its primary concern is to
proclaim through word and deed the Love of God as it is given
freely to all people. The Christian Life begins when a person is
born again into the body of Christ through baptism and a
personally committed faith in Jesus Christ. It can be lived
successfully only through a complete dependence upon the
indwelling Spirit of God.
We Invite
You...
To worship with us. We worship, serve, and sing the praises of
our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and hear the
preaching of His inerrant Word within the rich Lutheran
tradition of sacred
music and liturgy.
We Invite
You...
To grow with us. We grow in faith and service through Word and
Sacraments, both
individually and together as we carry out the work of serving
others through the
Work of Christ's redeeming love.
We Invite You...
To share with us. We invite you to share your life, your gifts,
your abilities, and your
love with us in mutual support as we reach out to others.
The Common Confession
(The faith statement of Lutheran CORE –
Coalition for Renewal. Adopted: November 2005)
CC1) The Lord Jesus Christ
We are people who
believe and confess our faith in the Triune God -- Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit. We trust and believe in Jesus Christ as our
Savior and Lord.
CC2) The Gospel of Salvation
We believe and confess that all human beings are
sinners, and that sinners are redeemed by the death and
resurrection of Jesus Christ. God alone justifies human beings
by faith in Christ — a faith that God creates through the
message of the Gospel. As ambassadors for Christ, God uses
us to speak his Word and build his kingdom.
CC3) The Authority of Scripture
We believe and confess that the Bible is God's
revealed Word to us, spoken in Law and Gospel. The Bible is the
final authority for us in all matters of our faith and life.
CC4) A Common Confession of Faith
We accept and uphold that the Lutheran
Confessions reliably guide us as faithful interpretations
of Scripture, and that we share a unity and fellowship in faith
with others among whom the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached
and the sacraments are administered in accordance with the
Gospel.
CC5) The Priesthood of All Believers
We believe and confess that the Holy Spirit makes
all who believe in Jesus Christ to be priests for service to
others in Jesus' name, and that God desires to make use of the
spiritual gifts he has given through the priesthood of all
believers.
CC6) Marriage and Family
We believe and confess that the marriage of male
and female is an institution created and blessed by God. From
marriage, God forms families to serve as the building blocks of
all human civilization and community. We teach and practice that
sexual activity belongs exclusively within the biblical
boundaries of a faithful marriage between one man and one woman.
CC7) The Mission and Ministry of the Congregation
We believe and confess that the church is the
assembly of believers called and gathered by God around Word and
Sacrament, and that the mission and ministry of the church is
carried out within the context of individual congregations,
which are able to work together locally and globally.
