The Christadelphians are a world-wide community of Bible students whose fellowship is based on a common understanding of the Scriptures.

We are a group of Bible believers tied together everywhere by our distinctive beliefs, which are freely and independantly arrived at – we have no central leadership telling us what to do. We believe that the Bible is the only authoritative revelation of the purpose of God.

We believe in a living God, whose mercy and love were perfectly manifested in the work of his Son, Jesus of Nazareth. We believe God is compassionate, and hears and answers prayer, healing those who He wills and according to His purpose.

The Christadelphians believe that Jesus the Christ is the son of God, who came to fulfill the Old Testament promises and covenants of God with mankind, primarily the covenants with Eve, Abraham and David.

We believe that Jesus is a man, who was tried and tempted as we are, yet who resisted sin even till death. Three days later, the only true God, the Father raised him to eternal life, after which Christ ascended to his Father’s side to await the appointed time of his return.

The Christadelphians embrace the hope of resurrection to eternal life at the return of Christ. We believe that this will take place soon. At that time the kingdom of God will be established from Jerusalem, growing to encompass the whole world, offering freedom, hope and salvation to all mankind. We believe this kingdom will bring a total transformation of the condition of this earth and its inhabitants: there will be no more pain, suffering and death. This is our hope, as found in the Bible.

The Christadelphians believe that salvation is attained through faith in Christ. It is through faith that we are baptized into Christ for forgiveness of sins, and thereby participate in the promises to Abraham: to inherit the earth for ever.

Doctrinally, the Christadelphians are unique in Christendom in our understanding of the nature of Christ, and the way in which we are redeemed by his death. We reject as unbiblical the idea that Christ could die as a replacement sacrifice for us, thus covering all our sins forever with that one act. Certainly it is through his sacrifice that we may be forgiven, but only if we walk the path of self-denial that he marked out for us.
