RESTORING THE OLD PATHS!!

We believe that Jesus is Lord and Saviour. He came to die for the sins of the world (John 3:16; Romans 3:23). He was crucified, buried, and raised (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). He ascended back on high. He established His church to which He adds all those that are saved by obeying His gospel (Acts 2:27-47). To obey His gospel a person MUST...
Hear & Believe that He is Lord & Saviour (Romans 10:17)
Repent of sin (Acts 2:38)
Confess Jesus as Lord (Acts 8:37)
Be Baptized in order to be forgiven of sin (Acts 2:38),
and given the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38)


We Urge You To...

Search the Scriptures!!!

WHAT IS THE CHURCH OF CHRIST??
Jesus Christ Said He Would Build His Church

"I will build my church..."Matt.16:18.

The Scriptures Declare He Built Only One.
"There is one body..."Eph.4:4.
"He is the head of the body, the church..."Col.1:18.
Divine Prophecy and inspired history affirm that the church of
Christ began in Jerusalem, on the day of Pentecost, 33 A.D.
