Who are Christadelphians?
Christadelphians are a group of Bible students with a common love for God and hope in fulfilling His plan. These are our most important things in common, but we are all very different!
Some of us are old, some are young, and some don't quite know how to describe our age. We are athletes and couch potatoes, adventurous thrill-seekers, and homebodies. We come from all areas of this country and other countries. We are single, we are couples, we are parents, and we are grandchildren. Gal 3:28 says, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
If you want to learn more about God, serve him perfectly, be more like Jesus, and express your love for him, you might be just like us!

What do Christadelphians Believe and Teach?
We believe that the Bible is God's only revealed message to mankind, given to bring responsive individuals to the obedience of faith. The Bible is our only authority, and we teach that it should be read prayerfully and with care at every opportunity.
Are Christadelphians New?
The Christadelphians are a worldwide religious body that has deliberately attempted to return to the faith and character of the early Christian church.
We have existed for over 150 years under Christadelphians, which means "Brethren of Christ."
This name is based on Matt 12:50: "For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, sister, and mother."

Where are Christadelphians Found?
We are located throughout the world. Like the early Christians, we meet in homes, rented rooms, and sometimes in our own halls. (Acts 1:13; 2:46; 18:7; 19:9; 28:30)
How are Christadelphians Organized?
We are a lay community patterned after first-century Christianity. Members of each congregation are addressed as "Brother" and "Sister", and all have an equal joint responsibility for the church's welfare. A strong common belief binds our Brotherhood together. (Matt 23:8-12; Rom 12:4-6; 16:1; 1 Cor 12:4-27; Gal 3:28)
What Kind of Lives Do Christadelphians Lead?
God's Way of salvation gives effective direction to our lives. We try to rely fully upon God and develop an active faith in prayer and good works. At the same time, however, we recognize that salvation is by grace. (1 Cor 1:3-11; 1 Pet 2:1-5; 2 Pet 1:5-11; James 2:17,5:16; Eph 2:5-10)
With God's help, we seek to please and obey Him daily, striving to imitate Christ, who faithfully obeyed His Father and unselfishly gave Himself for mankind. (Phil 2:13, 4:13; Eph 3:20; Phil 2:1-5; Rom 12:1-2; Eph 5:1-2)
We therefore endeavor to be enthusiastic in work, loyal in marriage, generous in giving, dedicated in preaching, cheerful in living, and happy in our God. (Eph 6:6-8; 1 Thess 4:1-8; 2 Cor 9; 2 Tim 4:1-5; John 16:33; Matt 5:1-16; Phil 4:4-7)
