What Does the Church of Christ Teach?
Again, someone who asks this question is not thinking of what do the individuals who follow after Christ teach. They are using the church of Christ in a denominational concept by suggesting that there is a head or headquarters that is telling all the local churches what to teach. They will say that the Baptist church (or name any denomination) teach such and such. Some creed or convention has told them that this is what they believe and teach. Do we have a creed or convention that tells the disciples of Christ what to teach? No. What we want people to understand is that what matters is what Christ teaches. Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1:23, “but we preach Christ crucified .” We do not want people to focus on the teachings of institutions, denominations, or individuals. We want to know what Christ teaches and if our lives in obedience to Christ s teachings.
