WHAT IS THE CHURCH OF CHRIST?
|
|
|
|
We are Christians attempting to
go back to the simplicity and purity of the first century church. We take the Bible
alone, and preach the same message, in the same way that the apostles did in the
book of Acts. With the Bible as our guide, and with no human creed to stumble on,
we enthusiastically seek to find and imitate what the original church was like.
Since the church belongs to Christ, you will find no modern-day organizational bureaucracy,
no earthly headquarters. The tie that binds all such congregations around the world
together is the Bible. Each congregation, however, is governed by a group of Elders
selected from among its members. These men meet specific qualifications given in
I Timothy 3 and Titus 1. Their task is to care for the congregation's spiritual
needs and keep the focus on God's Word.
Membership in the church is a result of following the Bible's plan to become a Christian.
It is not our place to establish any man-made requirements or ceremonies.
If you seek to obey Christ and receive the salvation offered by Jesus, we stand
ready to assist you and our arms are open to receive you as a child of God.
