❖ What translation do you use? Several translations are referred to, including NKJV, ESV, NIV, NASB, BSB, etc., but often they are not quoted directly. Instead, God's word is rendered in simple English that makes the meaning clear for the thousands of users who don't have English as their first language. For an example of this approach see Acts 2 in simple English.
❖ Where is your statement of faith? see The Undenominational Way —We don't provide a statement of faith because it is too much like a creed. However we do state some principles of undenominational Christianity.
❖ Do you have a mission statement? see Mission Statement —Yes, we have a mission statement and welcome you to share that same mission wherever you serve the Lord.
❖ Do you confess the Apostles’ Creed? see The Apostles’ Creed — The churches of Christ have no creeds. Whilst the Apostles’ Creed is not erroneous, neither is it scripture given by inspiration of God. And there are problems with it.
❖ Do you believe in the Holy Spirit? see The Gift of the Holy Spirit —Yes, and we have many lessons about the Holy Spirit, the seal of God, and miraculous gifts.
❖ What do you teach about the Second Coming? see Seven Events on the Last Day —In the Bible we find seven events predicted, all of which are to happen on the day Jesus returns. On this site we have many lessons about the last days and the second coming.
❖ Do you teach Faith Alone? see Busting the Faith Only Myth —We teach what Paul calls “the obedience of faith” and so, like Paul, we don't teach salvation by faith alone. Faith without works is as dead as works without faith. This website has many lessons on faith.
❖ How do I find lessons on other topics? see Using SiFi Search —We have extensive and detailed alphabetical indexing, but better still we offer our own unique internal search engine. Type your topic in the slot at the header or footer of any page on the site.
