We Believe:

  • ​In the Bible as the inspired and infallible Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:15-16)
  • In one God, externally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19, Mark 12:29)
  • In the virgin birth of Christ, His vicarious atoning death, bodily resurrection and ascension. (Isaiah 7:14, Romans 8:34, Acts 1:10)
  • In salvation through the blood of Jesus Christ. ( 1 John 5:10, Romans 10:13-15)
  • In water Baptism by immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation. (Matthew 28:19)
  • Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16)
  • In divine healing through the redemptive work of Christ on the cross. (Isaiah 53:4, Matthew 8:16-17, James 5:14-16)
  • In the work of the Holy Spirit in power for living, understanding spiritual gifts for the work of the ministry and for a victorious life. (Acts 1 & 2, 10 & 19, 1 Corinthians 15, Romans 1)​
  • In the second coming of Jesus Christ. (Acts 24:15, Luke 14:14, Revelation 19:7-9)

Our Mission

The Church is the body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of Her Great Commission. Each believer, born of the Spirit,  is an integral part of the calling and purpose given by God to His Church. 
Since God's purpose concerning man is to seek and save that which is lost, to be worshipped by man and to build a body of believers in the image of His Son, the priority reason-for-being of the First Christian Church of Bristol, Virginia is: 
Evangelism
...to be an agency of God for evangelizing the world. (Acts 1:8, Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15-16)
Worship
...to be a corporate body in which man might worship God in Spirit and in Truth. (1 Corinthians 12:13)
Fellowship
...to be a channel of God's purpose to build a body of saints perfected in the image of His Son. (Ephesians 4:11-16, 1 Corinthians 12:28 and 14:12)
