The Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) right from its formation in 1918 as Aladura Group believes in holiness, divine healing, and all sufficiency of God. After its great revival of 1930, where several people received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the Church combines a rare combination of Holiness and Pentecostalism. The Church holds the position of the first Aladura Pentecostal in the world.
The CAC derives its doctrine from the Holy Scriptures, sermons, cooperation with other churches, and beliefs of the founding fathers and mothers.
Following the cooperation with the Apostolic Church, England in 1931, the Revival Group accepted eleven Tenets of the Apostolic Church. In 1940, CAC added the 12th and 13th Tenets.
The word “Tenet” means belief or doctrine that a person holds or maintains as true. It is derived from the Latin word ‘tenere’ which means ‘to hold’. So the Tenets of the Christ Apostolic Church are the Biblical truths which we must hold and maintain.
CAC accepts the teachings of the Bible in its entirety, the Tenets are not intended to replace the Bible. They are necessary to guard against false teachings in a world of shifting morals and beliefs (II Pet 2: 1, Titus 1: 11).
Each Tenet has been expanded and the reasons why we believe it are explained.
