To be "Christians Only" is not just a concept, it is a reality. We believe in "one Body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all." Ephesians 4:4-6, NASB."The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch." Acts 11:26 NASB.

    "Rightly dividing the Word of Truth" II Timothy 2:15 (KJV & NKJV), is one of the steps to biblical salvation. We believe that by faith through grace, after repenting of our own sins and confessing that Jesus Christ is the promised Son of God and our Lord and Savior, we (that is, all who wish to be saved from their sin) are baptized into the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of our sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit; We must Hear, Romans 10:17; Believe, John 3:16, Mark 16:16; Repent, Luke 13:3; Confess, Matthew 10:32; Be Baptized, "baptism now saves you"          1 Peter 3:21, Acts 2:38, Romans 6:3-5, Mark 16:16; Live a Christian Life, James 1:12,                      I Cor.15:58.

    Enrich your life in the here and the hereafter with knowledge of the Word of God! The Bible only, makes Christians only!! Lets be just Christians. Jesus and His doctrine are the centerpiece of worship and teaching. "Faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word of Christ." Romans 10:17 NASB. Be part of a Church restoring the New Testament to it's rightful place in the church.

    We believe the church as a whole has only one headquarters, in heaven. We believe that the churches should be independent of each other and autonomous. Our Chief Bishop (Head Elder or Senior Pastor) is Christ, our High Priest is Christ and Lawgiver is Christ. It is only by His word that we function. Don't worry, we haven't forsaken the Old Testament teachings, I Cor. 10:11. 

    We take the Lord's Supper every Lord's day as The Lord Jesus told His disciples and His disciples, then, passed it to us. Matt. 26:26ff, Acts 2:42, I Corinthians 11:23ff, Acts 20:7.

    See the "useful information" page where the articles entered there will illustrate biblical doctrine. The "conservative" Church of Christ and Christian Churches do not normally participate in interdenominationalism. Other articles of interest are on other web sites on the links page.

    We enjoy the use of the instrument but are not bound by it. We see the value of worshipping the Lord with all your strength, mind, heart and talents. That does not mean we have loud music but does not rule out more modern treatment of music in worship. We ask that all music (lyrics) be scripturally based. We do not see group raising of hands as scripturally based, either during prayer or singing as is the custom of some today.
