Council of Reforming Churches


Here’s an exciting new work: The Council of Reforming Churches.

Goals
The
Council of Reforming Churches (CRC) exists to impact the black church
and greater black community with biblical theology which has its
fulfillment in the Person and work of Jesus Christ. Our aim is to see
reformed theology planted, take root and eventually flourish within and
among the black community, for Christ, the Church, and the Truth.

Who They Are
The
Council of Reforming Churches is an association of churches subscribing
to the historic five solas of the reformation, the core doctrines of
grace commonly known as the five points of Calvinism and the system of
theology summed up in such catechism/confessions as the historic
Baptist Confession of Faith 1689, The Westminster Confession of Faith
and Heidelberg Catechism.

Our purpose is to see biblically reformed
theology sown, take root in, flourish among and eventually become the
dominant theology within the black church and African-American
community.

Why They Exist

  • CRC
    exists to fill the vacuum created by the absence of any institution
    dedicated to the promotion and practice of biblically reformed theology
    within the African-American community.
  • CRC exists in light of
    the increasing rejection of sound biblical preaching and teaching among
    a significant number of black churches.
  • CRC exists to address the black community’s need to be instructed properly in the historic truths of reformed theology.
  • CRC exists to engage the increasing secularization of the black church and subsequent danger to our Christian witness.
