History
The church of Christ began in Jerusalem on the first Pentecost after the ascension of Jesus(Acts 2). The Piedmont church of Christ follows the pattern of the church of the New Testament. We have no man-made creed, but follow only the New Testament (NT). The NT church has no earthly headquarters, but recognizes only the authority of Christ in all things (Eph 1:22-23). We fervently believe that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, all-sufficient Word of God and that the NT is the new covenant of Jesus, His last will and testament (Heb 9:15-20; Matt 26:28). We invite you to come and worship God according to the precepts of the NT and study with us from God's Holy Word. You will be given a warm welcome at every assembly of the church. At the present we are small in numbers, but strong in the faith and in our world-wide commitment to seek and save the lost. Come and grow with us in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Pet 3:18).
