Bible Question: Hello, I asked the questions yesterday concerning the church of christ. Basically, my entirely family on my moms side attend the church of christ,of course you know they believe that baptizm saves you and the only way you are able to go to heaven in through the church of christ. Unfortunately, God has showed me a different light. I became a christian in college through campus outreach. I really have a ton of questions but I will limit them. What is the story of Cornelius? Where did the church of christ orignate? Why do teh church of christ believes everybody else is going to hell except them? Why do the church of chirst only sing acapella? Does it mention anything in the bible just to sing acapella hymns? Thanks, Marcus |
Bible Answer: The story of Cornelius can be found in Acts 10. The following quotes regarding the Churches of Christ come from Handbook of Denominations in the United States 10th Edition pages 99-101. The churches are related to the restoration movement - the work and thinking of James O' Kelly in Virginia, Abner jones and Elias Smith in New England, Barton Stone in Kentucky, and Thomas and Alexandar Campbell in West Virginia ... . Worship was simple, and they opposed the addition of instrumental music on the grounds that the New Testament did not authorize it and the early church did not use it. Membership is contingent upon an individual's faith in Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of God, repentance, confession of faith, and baptism by immersion for the remission of sins. Churches of Christ maintain that the final judgment of all religous groups is reserved unto the Lord. |
