WHO ARE WE? We, the Simpson Street Church of Christ, shares life with a larger body of Churches of Christ through faith, practice and fellowship who seek identity through the scriptures with the New Testament church founded in Jerusalem in the First Century A.D.
We are committed to identifying with the New Testament church through study of the scriptures which we believe to be the inspired and authorative word of God. We believe Jesus is the expected Christ of the scriptures and that He was born of the virgin Mary, was crucified under Pontius Pilate, that he was raised from the dead by God on the third day following his burial, that he ascended into heaven and is seated on the right hand of God and that He will one day return to judge the world in righteousness, the time of the final judgment.
We believe in the ONE universal church under God for all humanity and in the proclamation of the one redeeming gospel to all the world. We understand that through faith in Christ and through obedience to the gospel message, repentance of life, confession of Christ as Lord and baptism by immersion in water into Christ for remission of sins one is born again, and becomes a member of the New Testament church, God’s called out Body of believers.
By faith in Christ, members of the Simpson Street Church of Christ meet every Sunday for fellowship in worship consisting of singing, praying, preaching, communing, and giving in support of the church and the study of the word.
We are pleased to provide information regarding our origin, beliefs and teachings. More information is available upon request. May God be with you until the time of His return. |
