God's Simple Plan of Salvation
About Our ChurchWe believe that the great gospel blessing which Christ secures to such as believe in Him is justification; that justification includes the pardon of sin, and the gift of eternal life on principles of righteousness; that it is bestowed not in consideration of any works of righteousness which we have done, but solely through faith in the Redeemer's blood, His righteousness is imputed unto us.

About UsWe are just Christians. The Abilene church of Christ is free, independent, and self-governing, under Christ. We have no denominational affiliation or headquarters. Our organization, worship, and work are all according to the New Testament pattern. The Bible alone is our guide. God’s Word is truth, and Jesus has authority in all things (John 17:17; Matthew 28:18). Thus we have no sectarian doctrine or creed. Our plea is for all people to return to the principles and practices of New Testament Christianity so that we might find unity in Christ, the kind of unity that Jesus prayed for (John 17:20-21). At the Abilene church of Christ, we have rejected all doctrines and creeds originating with man, and are drawn together by a common faith in and obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ. We hold to a commitment of serving the God faithfully according to His Word (Romans 10:17). Our worship is simple, unpretentious, reverent, and joyous. Our sincere desire is to worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24) while encouraging one another to walk more closely with God (Hebrews 10:23-25). We hope you will accept this invitation to visit with us soon (Romans 16:16). It is always our interest to share with others the pure gospel of Jesus Christ as set forth in the New Testament. …
We are the non-denominational church of the Bible that Christ founded on the Day of Pentecost in the first century in the city of Jerusalem. (Matthew 16:18; Luke 24:46-49; Acts 2:1-47; Ephesians 1:20-23) How is the church governed? Christ is the head of the church (Ephesians 1:20-23). Under Christ, individual congregations have a plurality of elders who must meet the qualifications found in the Scriptures (1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:5. Under the elders serve deacons (1 Timothy 3:8-13), evangelists (ministers) and teachers (Ephesians 4:11-12). The only law governing the church is the Bible (Colossians 3:17; 2 Timothy 3:16-17). How does the church worship?
How does one become a member of the church so as to be saved?
