It means trying to be like the
first century church in work, worship and teaching. They were just
Christians - why can't we be the same?
It means being an
independent and autonomous church, not part of any denominational
structure - just like the Christians in the New Testament.
It means worshiping like
the people in the New Testament did.
It means believing and
practicing what the New Testament church believed and practiced.
It means an end to
"hyphenated Christianity" where some human-centered name or
creedal position is attached to the term Christian. We hear this all the
time: "I'm this kind of Christian" or "I'm a ---------
Christian." Where do we read about that kind of thinking in the New
Testament? Why can't we be just Christians like in the New Testament?
In
short, it means being what the first believers were: just Christians.
We
are dedicated to that ideal. We just want to study the scriptures and see New
Testament Christianity freshly, in purity and simplicity. If that thought
intrigues you, then browse our site and stop in to visit with us. You'll find the
quest for "just Christians" to be tremendously challenging and
rewarding. We pray we'll be a help to you along the way.
"Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment."
(1 Corinthians 1:10)
