What We Believe

The First Christian Church of Golden City Missouri identifies with the great movement for the Restoration of the New Testament Church. We believe in the inspired Word of God and that it is both infallible and God inspired who through men of His choosing recorded the words we have today. We believe that Jesus Christ is the head of the Church and follow the teachings of the Apostles whom he instructed through the Holy Spirit to begin and lead his Church. Below are some more of what we believe and what we practice:

We wear the New Testament Name of “Christian”;

We have no Creed but “Christ”;

We obey and practice New Testament Baptism by Immersion into Christ, for the forgiveness of sins, and the gift of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38);

We hold a New Testament Communion commonly know as the “Lord’s Supper” every Lord’s Day (Acts 20:7);

We practice New Testament Stewardship by receiving “Tithes and Offerings” (Heb. 7:8);

We strive to the best of our abilities to live a New Testament Life doing our best to be found faithful in His teachings and commands”.

Our Plan…The restoration of the New Testament Church.

Our Purpose… “That the world may believe” in answer to Christ ‘s prayer.

Our Motto…Christ, the only Head of His Church and the only Lord of our lives.

We say not that we are “the only Christians, but that we are Christians only.”

We speak where the Bible speaks, and are silent where the Bible is silent.

You are welcome to attend and use your Bible to examine all teachings and practices.

No pressure is ever exerted upon anyone attending our services. Decisions must always come about by an individual’s own sincere belief and conviction.

 

In  Essentials…UNITY

In Non-essentials…LIBERTY

In ALL things…LOVE
