What is the Church of Christ?

Millions have asked this question in view of its remarkable growth. The answer is found in the New Testament in Romans 16:16. Jesus Christ promised to build his church. Upon this Rock, I will build my church, Mat. 16:18. Fifty days after his resurrection, Christ built his church when three thousand became Christians and were added to it, Acts 2:38, 47. The Church of Christ was built upon the foundation of Jesus as the Son of God. Other foundations can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ, I Cor. 3:11. Jesus Christ is the head of the Church, and he alone has preeminence in it. And he (Christ) is the head of the body, the church, that in all things he might have the preeminence, Col. 1:18. Jesus said, “All authority is given unto me in heaven and on earth, Mat. 28:18. The Church of Christ is not a denomination. It is the kingdom of God. The Church of Christ is non-denomination and Christ-centered by its very nature. It is neither Catholic nor Protestant, or any man-made organization. The church is not controlled by ecclesiastical hierarchy, since every member is a priest under Christ, the high priest, 1 Pet. 2:9. When Christ is preached and men believe in him, repent, and are baptized (immersed under water) into Christ, Christians are made, Gal. 3:27. Then God adds them to the church that is the body of Christ, Acts 2:41. The Church of Christ is pleading for true Christianity, the restoration of the first church that we read in Acts 2: And the Unity of all Christians. Jesus said, the seed is the word of God, Luke 8:11. When the seed of God is sown today, it will bear the same fruit that it produced in first century Christianity.
