At Concerned Christians Canada, we are committed to speaking out and bringing the truth of God's word to bare on all aspects of society and life. Speaking into the culture is in fact being the salt of this world that Christ called us to be.

Christ said we are the light of the world. He said that we are not to hide this light under a bushel but that we are to live as examples of holiness and Godliness in this dark world. With our projects, which are focused on serving and blessing, we are committed to demonstrating the love of Christ without forsaking the gospel. We regognize that we are to be salt and light, not salt or light.

Concerned Christians Canada is encouraging Christians, who are called by Christ's name to stand for Christ, and when they have done all to stand, to stand having girded themselves with the armor of God. We are sounding the trumpet call to all men and women that love the Lord to be the watchmen over the nation that we are called to be.
Our nation, although founded by men who believed in the God of the Bible, has markedly departed not only from holding the Bible up as THE authority for and above all men, but has substancially departed from honoring the God of the Bible.
There are many attacks on the Biblical definition of the family. God has blessed his definition of marriage, other choices bring curses, not only on the adults but also on the children and on the society that embraces those choices.
CCC is committed to explaining the benefits for God's design for marriage. As an organization, we are also committed to promoting God's model, to individuals, groups and politicians.
In this day and age, youth are hurting. Whether it be that they have been wounded by sexual, physical, emotional or spiritual abuse, at home or elsewhere, or broken by "dating" which has left them abandoned and broken, whether they have had stability and security robbed from them due to their parents divorcing, or any of a myriad of other problems, children are more and more hopeless and need to know that Christ is for them if the turn to Him. Find out how CCC is reaching out to youth.
We need your prayer support.
God is our source and our provider, but he uses people like us to pray for one another, to edify one another and to build each other up in the faith. He uses people like us working together in the Spirit of Christ to change lives. Find out how CCC is encouraging the body of Christ to work together to Pray, Act and Make a Difference!
| Christ Centred... Resist Ecumenicalism but Unite in Christ |

As National Chairman of Concerned Christians Canada, it is my pleasure to have the opportunity to meet with, connect with, and otherwise engage in conversation, leaders of churches, parachurch organizations, and leaders in business. Recently I met with Rev. David Fletcher, of Calgary Free Presbyterian Church, to discuss Christ centred unity. We also discussed the need to ensure that we resist the heretical call for ecumenical unity, which attempts to unite all religions attributing all religions as equal in value and in truth. As the only faith that believes that we are saved not by works but by God's grace alone, when we put our faith in the finished work of Jesus on the cross, Christianity is clearly not the same as the rest. In Christianity, incarnate God demonstrated His love for us on the cross and rose from the dead and is living in heaven today. Jesus had the power to lay down His life and the power to raise himself from the dead. Founders of other religions such as Budda, Mohammad, Joseph Smith, etc died. They proclaim a follow after me and hope that you might make it into heaven if you are good enough. The Bible teaches that our righteousness is filthy in God's sight and that all have sinned and fall short of being acceptable to God despite thinking we are a "good person". Jesus clearly stated that, "No man comes to the Father but by me". In our discussions we agreed that some people within orthodox Christianity fear any unity movement within the church due to the concern that we could be seduced by the ecumenical unity movement in the long run. The Bible, however is clear that we are not to be divided but to be one in Christ, and to not allow there to be divisions among us. Of coarse this is still while holding fast to sound doctrine and not tolerating false teaching. Rev. Fletcher indicated that those churches who are truly orthodox in their faith inter-denominationally should set aside non-essential differences in order to fulfill the broad mandate of the call of Christ to reach the world with the gospel and to win as many to Christ as possible. I believe his point is well stated. Incidentally God divinely appointed that Rev. Fletcher preach on the subject of Christ centred unity the very Sunday I went to discuss the subject with him, which he did not know in advance of my visit.
God is so good. Rev. Fletcher also ensured that I receive a copy of a book I highly recommend called Living the Cross Centered Life: Keeping the Gospel the Main Thing
