Selma Church of Christ

The Churches of Christ rely upon the Bible as its only religious authority. Members are called Christians as they were first called in the bible in Acts. The Church of Christ is not a modern denomination. The local churches are autonomous or independent, and follow the bible. Members acknowledge that true authority is from God and passed to Jesus Christ. We, as the church, follow the New Testament teachings and use the Old Testament as an example for learning (Romans 15:4). Accordingly, our worship consists of reading and preaching from the bible, partaking of the Lord's Supper, praying and singing of hymns, and giving as we have prospered. Purpose As Christians, we are commanded to spread the gospel:The Great Commission 16Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
