Who are the Christadelphians?
" We are a small bible based community of ordinary people who try to maintain the faith and character of the first century believers. The name "Christadelphian" simply means "brothers in Christ"
We believe the Bible to be God's word and that anyone who wants to take the time to read it and follow it can have hope centering on the second coming of Christ and the Kingdom of God on earth.
Are you aware that the Bible teaches:
-
That Jesus Christ will return to the earth again? (Acts 1:11)
-
That he will establish God's kingdom when he returns? (Matthew 25:31-32)
-
That the current world political and social turmoil has been prophesied? (Luke 21:25-28)
-
That the Middle East will be a centre of conflict at the time Jesus returns? (Zechariah 14:1-4)
-
That despite the world's troubles there is hope for a more peaceful place? (Isaiah 2:2-4)
-
That there is a personal hope of eternal life for people who commit themselves to God? (Acts 3:18-21)
-
That the way we show our commitment is through baptism into Christ? (Galatians 3:27-29)
-
That God will help you find peace now? (Philippians 4:6-7)
The Christadelphians in Oklahoma City are part of a world-wide community of Bible students whose fellowship is based on a common understanding of the Scriptures.
We aren't some sort of branch cultic group, as we have no central organization telling us what to do and believe. Rather we are tied together everywhere by our distinctive beliefs, which are freely and independently arrived at.
The Christadelphians believe that Jesus the Christ is the son of God, who came to fulfill the Old Testament promises and covenants of God with mankind, primarily the covenants with Eve, Abraham and David.
We believe that Jesus is a man, who was tried and tempted as we are, yet who resisted sin even till death. Three days later, the only true God, the Father raised him to eternal life, after which Christ ascended to his Father's side to await the appointed time of his return.
The Christadelphians embrace the hope of resurrection to eternal life at the return of Christ. We believe that this will take place soon. At that time the kingdom of God will be established from Jerusalem, growing to encompass the whole world, offering freedom, hope and salvation to all mankind. The people of Israel, as the literal descendants of Abraham, will have a special place in this kingdom.
The Christadelphians believe that salvation is attained through faith in Christ. It is through faith that we are baptized into Christ for forgiveness of sins, and thereby participate in the promises to Abraham: to inherit the earth for ever.
Doctrinally, the Christadelphians are unique in Christendom in our understanding of the nature of Christ, and the way in which we are redeemed by his death. We reject as unbiblical the idea that Christ could die as a replacement sacrifice for us, thus covering all our sins forever with that one act. Certainly it is through his sacrifice that we may be forgiven, but only if we walk the path of self-denial that he marked out for us.
If you wish to know more about what we believe and preach, a detailed Statement of Faith is on line. We also have a compiled list of the Commandments of Christ. You can also get in touch through e-mail, and we'll happily send you some material on any of the above topics.
