Concordia Christian Academy is
operated by two congregations of the
Lutheran Church Missouri Synod: Zion
Lutheran of Waldenburg, AR, and
Pilgrim Lutheran of Jonesboro, AR.
The congregations of the Lutheran
Church Missouri Synod hold beliefs
that are shared by many other
Christian denominations, such as the
following:
1. God created a perfect
world, but man chose to sin.
Because of this sin, we “all have
sinned and
fall short of the Glory of God.”
(Romans 3:23)
2. We are saved, or
receive Eternal Life, by grace,
through faith in our Lord, Jesus
Christ. (“For
it is by grace you have been saved
through faith, and this not from
yourselves, it is the gift of
God, not from works, so that no one
can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
That faith comes by hearing
the Word of God.
3. The Bible is the true,
inspired, and inerrant Word of God
and there is no other sure
foundation
for faith and life.
4. There is One True God,
eternally existent in three
persons. God, the Father, created
the world
and continues to sustain it and us.
God, the Son, came to Earth, lived
as a human, died on the
cross for our sins, and rose from
the dead, winning Eternal Victory
over sin and Satan, and
He will return again in power and
glory. God, the Holy Spirit, works
in our lives through the
Word of God, and through the
Sacraments of Baptism and Holy
Communion, to create, sustain,
and strengthen faith in Jesus
Christ, in us, and to lead us and
guide us to do the will of God
in our daily lives.
5. Through faith in
Christ we have the assurance of life
with God in glory, and fullness of
life to
be lived for Him right now. (John
10:10)
