For a detailed statement of Christadelphian beliefs, have a look at the publication,
Who are the Christadelphians?. But here is a brief summary:
-
The Bible is the only true message from God and was entirely given by Him.
-
There is only one God, the Father, who made the world and has a great purpose for it.
-
The Holy Spirit is God's own power, by which he works out His own holy will.
-
Jesus is the Son of God. He is also Son of Man through being born of Mary.
-
Jesus overcame all temptation and died to save his followers from sin and death.
-
Jesus was raised from the dead by God. Later he ascended to heaven but will return.
-
When he returns he will raise and judge the responsible dead and give immortality to the
faithful.
-
He will be King over the restored Kingdom of God in Israel and over the whole world.
-
His immortalised followers will help him to bring everlasting righteousness and peace
worldwide.
-
The devil is not a supernatural being but is another name for sin, destroyed only in
Christ.
-
Salvation involves covering from sin through Christ, and freedom from sin and death at
his coming.
-
When man dies he ceases to exist. The only hope of life is by resurrection at Christ's
return.
-
Belief in God's promises about the Kingdom of God and the work of Jesus Christ is
essential.
-
Repentance and baptism into Christ by immersion in water and daily following of Christ
are all necessary for ultimate salvation.
