God
Christadelphians base their beliefs wholly on the Bible, and accept no other texts as inspired by God. The Bible says that God is the creator of all things. He is a separate being from his son, Jesus Christ. The Bible clearly teaches that the Holy Spirit is not a person, but the power of God used in creation and for salvation.
Jesus
The Bible says that Jesus is the promised Messiah, in whom the prophecies and promises of the Old Testament (particularly those to Abraham and David) find their fulfilment. Jesus is the son of Mary, and Son of God by virtue of his miraculous conception by the power of God. Although tempted, he committed no sin. God raised him to immortality, and he ascended to Heaven, God's dwelling place. Jesus will return in person to establish the kingdom of God on earth. His throne will be in Jerusalem and he will be king over the restored kingdom of God in Israel. Jesus will also rule over the whole earth.
Us
People become disciples of Christ only by belief in his teachings, by repentance, and through baptism by total immersion in water. Although saved by faith in God's grace, real faith will manifest in works, thus the disciple should try to live a life consistent with Bible teaching. The Bible says that death is the complete cessation of life. After death, believers are in a state of non-existence, knowing nothing until the resurrection at the return of Christ. Following the judgment at that time, the accepted live forever with Christ on a restored Earth, helping him to establish the Kingdom of God, and to rule over the mortal population for a thousand years (the Millennium). The Kingdom of God is the focal point of the Gospel taught by Jesus and the apostles.To show that God’s promises will come true, just look at examples of fulfilled Bible prophecy, particularly as regards the nations (Daniel 11), as clear evidence that the Scriptures can be trusted. There are a number of of doctrines traditionally held by the mainstream Christian denominations, which have no basis in the Bible, notably the immortality of the soul, the Trinity, and the pre-existence of Christ . Where the words devil or Satan occur in the Bible, they should be understood as the inherent sin within man and his inclination to go against the wishes of his Creator. Hell, is understood to simply refer to the grave to which all men go, rather than being a place of eternal torment.
Christadelphians are conscientious objectors (but not pacifists), and refrain from joining the armed forces. Congregational worship, which usually takes place on Sunday, centres on the remembrance of Christ offered to all baptised members.
