Growing in Christ Together

The church of Christ...

• Has ONE founder which is Jesus Christ - Matthew 16:18. 

• Has ONE origin which is the day of Pentecost in A.D. 33 - Acts 2. 

• Has ONE authority which is the Bible - Ephesians 2:19-21; 2 Timothy 3:16-17.

• Has ONE way of becoming a member which is through baptism - Romans 6:3-5; Colossians 2:11-13; Galatians 3:26-27; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Acts 2:38-47. 

​

When looking for a church to call home, ask yourself the following  

 

• "Who is the founder?" - If it is anyone besides Christ, then it is not the ONE true Church. 

• "What is the origin?" - If the church has another origin besides Pentecost in A.D. 33, then it is not the ONE true Church. 

• "What is the authority?" - If the church has any other authority besides the Bible such as a creed book, rule book, doctrinal handbook, etc., then it is not the ONE true Church.

• "How do I become a member?" - If the church has any other way of becoming a part of that church besides being united with Christ in baptism, then it is not the ONE true Church.

​

We are not just another church, but those who attend the Vermillion church of Christ are one congregation of many that are a part of that ONE true Church.
