Beliefs

The Christadelphians are a body of Christians who base their beliefs wholly on the Bible. The name ‘Christadelphian’ means ’brothers and sisters in Christ’.

There are Christadelphian communities throughout the world, and our fellowship together is based on an agreed Statement of Faith, a statement of the things we believe, taken entirely from the Bible - Old and New Testaments.

Our aim is to live by faith in Jesus Christ, according to the teaching of his followers from the first century.

We believe that those who follow Jesus and his apostles now, looking for guidance from the Bible and forgiveness from God, may confidently place their hope in Christ's return to the earth, when He will bring eternal life to His people and establish the long-awaited Kingdom of God.
