What
is the Christian Church?
The
Christian Church is composed of people who accept Christ
as the Son of God and Lord of Life -- who strive to follow
His commandments and honor His Word as their sufficient
rule of faith and practice.
The
Christian Church is not sectarian, nor is it denominational.
It is the Spiritual Body of Christ, wherein dwells the Spirit
of God
(Romans
8:8-15)
We
have no conference, convention or earthly ecclesiastical
authority over us -- only Christ and His Word. We seek the
unity of all believers in Christ upon the essential matters
and the freedom of local congregations and individual Christians
in matters of opinion.
No
creed but Christ.
No name but the divine.
No book but the Bible.
No rule of faith and practice but the New Testament.
Where the Scriptures speak, we speak;
Where the Scriptures are silent, we are silent.
In faith, unity; in opinions, liberty; in all things, love.
