The congregation of
the Lord's church at Granby, Missouri, welcomes all visitors. We pray that
this site will help to instruct all to the path of righteousness.
We are often
asked for our statement of faith. The church of Christ is a
non-denominational body which has no creed or doctrine other than the
Bible and, therefore, has no statement of faith other than the Bible. We
expound upon beliefs from the Bible, which is not open to private
interpretation (2 Peter 1:20) and can speak for itself.
One needs
only turn to the pages of the greatest book ever written to find our
beliefs on any issue. Our
reference section
has many links to chapter and verse showing what the Bible says about many
topics.
