Brief introduction to the churches of Christ
The churches of Christ date back to the days of the New Testament (Romans 16:16).
It was founded by Christ on the Day of Pentecost, A.D. 33 (Acts 2), just after
His ascension back to heaven. In the years that followed, it rapidly grew to
fill Jerusalem, then Judea, Samaria, and finally the whole Roman Empire (Acts 1:8; Colossians 1:23). It was first established in America in the late 1700s, up in the New England states.
The churches of Christ are noted for their emphasis upon returning to New Testament
Christianity and for its desire to unite all Christians into one body (1 Corinthians 1:10). They believe that the New Testament is the only rule for faith
and practice in religious matters (2 Timothy 3:17; I Peter 4:11) and that it
must authorize all that is done in Christian worship (Colossians 3:17;
Revelation 22:18–19). Thus they try to strictly follow the New Testament. For
this reason, only a cappella music is used in worship assemblies and the Lord’s
supper is observed every Sunday. They believe the Bible teaches that sinners are
saved by faith, repentance, confession, and baptism (John 3:16; Mark 16:16;
Acts 2:38; Romans 10:9–10) and that a Christian must remain faithful to the
Lord after conversion (Revelation 2:10). The churches of Christ are organized
with elders, deacons, preachers, and members as in New Testament times
(Philippians 1:1).
They believe that Jesus is the Son of God (John 20:30– 31), that the Bible is inspired of God (2 Timothy 3:16– 17), and that Jesus will return to take His kingdom (church)
home to God (1 Corinthians 15:24). They emphasize sincere worship (John 4:24),
every-member evangelism (Acts 8:4), godly living (Titus 2:11–12), love for each
other (John 13:33–34), and helping those in need (James 1:27). They believe that
it is possible to have religious unity in a day of division by simply following
the New Testament pattern and putting aside human traditions.
To put it simply, the churches of Christ are seeking to be the same church one reads about in the New Testament. We aim to restore its doctrine, its practice, its lifestyle, and its zeal.
Why not visit a church of Christ near you next Sunday, they will welcome your visit.
