Confessional Subscription
As noted in "Our Faith," and specified in our church constitution, the officebearers of Christ Covenant Church subscribe to ecumenical Christian creeds (the Apostles' Creed, Nicene Creed, Definition of Chalcedon, Athanasian Creed) as well as Reformation confessions (Heidelberg Catechism, Belgic Confession, and Canons of Dort).
The federation to which we belong (Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches) calls for "honest subscription" - essentially meaning that officebearers are to specify any exceptions they may have to the subscribed confessions. We do not allow for deviation from the basic ecumenical creeds; our informational document for candidacy in the CREC provides details of the position of our council members regarding our confessions (see heading 7b).
