Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior
Head of the Church

We acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and recognize Him as the Head of the Church. (Colossians 1:18; Ephesians 1:22-23)

Statement of our Faith
The Christian Church/Church of Christ

The Christian Church/Church of Christ is a part of a world-wide fellowship of people whose intention is to be just Christians. (I Peter 4:16; Act 11:26)

We reject denominationalism and all forms of human creeds, doctrines, and ordinances which are not revealed in the New Testament Scriptures. 

The Holy Bible, Our Only Guide
We accept the Bible as the only inspired record of God's revelation to man. (Revelation 22:18-19)

The Bible is the textbook to which reference is repeatedly made in our Bible classes for all ages and also in our sermons.  Special emphasis is placed on that part of the Bible knows as the New Testament. (2 Timoth 3:16-17; Romans 1:16-17)

We believe that the New Testament is the only divine rule of faith and practice given to the followers of Christ (Jude 3) and that it is the pattern for both the Church and the individual to follow.

Therefore, we insist only on those matters which the New Testament sets for as those requirements for membership in Christ's Church.  These are:

  • Faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and our Savior (Mark 16:16)
  • Repentance of sins (Acts 3:19)
  • Confession of faith in Christ (Romans 10:9-10)
  • Baptism in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38-41)
Baptism
We practice the form of baptism that conforms to the New Testament pattern, this being immersion. (Romans 6:3-4)

We accept the design of baptism as revealed in the New Testament which is the Biblical Condition which brings a person into Christ. (Galatians 3:27; Colossians 1:13)

Our Worship
Our worship, like that of the original church, centers around preaching, the Lord's Supper, fellowship, giving of tithes and offerings and prayer.

Our objective is to preach Christ and Him crucified (1 Corinthians 2:2) so that the world might believe and be saved. We plead for unity of all believers to accept the basis for unity as expressed in Ephesians 4:4-6.
