The Eastside Church of Christ in Las Vegas, New Mexico is a group of simply Christians!
Before the beginning of this world God prepared a plan. Within that eternal purpose God designed His kingdom, the church, which would display to the powers of Heaven His divine wisdom (Eph. 3:10-11).
Through the Old Testament, God promised by His prophets to set up His eternal kingdom of peace which would never be destroyed (cf. Dan. 2:44; Isa. 2:1-4). In the New Testament, Jesus began His public ministry proclaiming, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand" (Mk. 1:15). Jesus promised to build this kingdom which would be His church (Matt. 16:18-19).
This long planned and awaited promise became a reality on the first Pentecost after Christ's resurrection. On that day the kingdom of God, the church of Jesus Christ, was established as those who obeyed the instruction of Peter to repent and be baptized were added to the church (Acts 2:36, 47). The church of Christ was and is built upon the immovable foundation of Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 3:11). It is a special body of people belonging to Christ, the head of this divine institution. In this relationship the church is the glory and fullness of Christ (Eph. 1:23; 3:21). To this special body, Christ has given a special work of universal scope and everlasting consequence. The church is to be the "pillar and ground of the Truth" (1 Tim. 3:15). The church is to support and uphold the eternal Truth of God's Word in everything it is and does.
We want to invite you and your family to put away man made titles and teachings and simply become New Testament Christians! Visitors to our assemblies are honored guests! Our gathering for worship is part of an unbroken succesion of Lord's Day meetings, streching from Penticost, A.D. 33, to the present! We confidently anticipate that the church will be observing this memorial of his ressurection "till He comes!" What an honor to participate in this display of faith and hope that has spanned the centuries! We would like to study with you and present the wonderful news about Jesus Christ as it is revealed in the Bible.
Home Bible studies can be conducted at your convenience. If you do not have a Bible we would be more than happy to supply you with one.
