Chinese
Christian Mission (CCM) is founded in 1961 by Rev. Thomas
Wang. He received a vision from the Lord to proclaim the Gospel among the Chinese all over the world.
CCM started out with literature work and developed into different ministries
such as audio/visual,
discipleship training, counseling, and broadcasting. Rev. Mark Cheng
joined CCM in 1975 and expanded the ministry to overseas missions. CCM currently
has offices in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong
Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippines, and Singapore.
Our first missionary couple was sent out in 1979 to Panama in Central America.
Many CCM
representatives came together in 1997 to form CCM International in order to share resources in missions
globally.
We believe the Holy Scripture, both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired Word
of God, the complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the
divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life.
We
believe in the one, true and living God, eternally existing in three persons
- Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.
We
believe in God the Father, the Creator, Ruler and Sustainer of heaven and
earth and everything therein.
We
believe in God the Son, Jesus Christ, true God and true man, conceived of
the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross and shed
His blood as an atonement for the sins of men, and was raised bodily from the
dead. He ascended into heaven, where at the right hand of the Majesty on
High, He now is our High Priest and Advocate. We believe in His imminent
return according to His promise.
We
believe in the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the God-head, who is of one
substance, equal in power, and co-existent with the Father and the Son. His
ministry is to convict men, regenerate the believing sinners, and to
indwell, guide, instruct and empower the believers for godly living
and service.
We
believe that man was created in the image and the likeness of God, but in
Adam all men have fallen into sin, and as sinners men cannot save
themselves, but are in need of God's
salvation.
We
believe that penitent sinners are regenerated solely by God's grace and
justified through faith in Jesus Christ.
We
believe that there shall be a bodily resurrection of the just to eternal
life, and of the unjust to eternal punishment.
We
believe that the church is one body, consisting of those regenerated by the
Spirit of God and of which Christ is the Head, expressing itself in worship,
fellowship, evangelism and service.
