Learn about our Bible Believing Community

We are a group of Bible Students who base our beliefs wholly on the Bible, regarding it as fully inspired by God, and therefore believe that in its original form, it is error free.

Purely for reasons of having to be known by a name we have chosen to be known by the name “Christadelphians”.

The name “Christadelphian” means ‘Christ’s Brethren’ ie. we are Brothers and Sisters in Christ.  This name was first used by the Apostle Paul when speaking of the followers of Christ in Romans 1:13 “I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that I planned many times to come to you…”  “brothers and sisters” is the Greek ‘adelphoi’ from which comes ‘adelphians’, Christ’s brothers and sisters.

This name was first used by our community in the mid-1800s, but we believe that there have been people (other Bible Students, Brothers and Sisters in Christ) who share our beliefs throughout history.

We are confidently waiting for Christ to return to earth when he will gather his followers together from all over the world and commence to establish God’s Kingdom on Earth.

A Religion That Makes Sense

1. WHERE MODERN CHRISTIANITY FAILS

Starting right

Somebody once said that you will never find atheists on a life raft. This is another way of saying that when people are in desperate situations, they cannot afford to leave God out of their reckoning.

The stark fact is that we are all in a desperate situation, always. When people swagger and snap their fingers in God’s face, they are living in a dream world. They are not awake to the fact that life, at its best, is brief and precarious.

That is at its best!

And in these days of world wars and hydrogen bombs, life is more uncertain than ever. There is but a step between us and death.

Let us then begin by acknowledging that we need God. We are all on the same life raft; the sea is rough, and the sky is dark and threatening. We dare not pretend that we don’t believe in Him.

As believers in God, we ask the question: can we find a sensible and satisfying way of worshipping this God in whom we believe?

Would I be right in assuming that we believe in Jesus Christ too? Good! So it looks as if we ought to be enthusiastic members of the community that Christ founded. Read more
