Christadelphian Youths to hold conference in Bo City
The Christadelphian Youth Coalition of the Christadelphian Bible Mission (CBM) will hold their annual conference at their Ecclesia Hall Water Lane in Bo City from 19th to 22nd December 2013. The event which is aimed at bringing together youths from various CBM branches in Sierra Leone (Freetown, Kenema, Bo, Blama, Wanjama, Talia etc.), is aimed at strengthening the relationship in the body of Christ and prepare the mindset of young people to be more focused and committed to the things of God. The conference will feature various youth leaders that will deliver messages of sound doctrine to sway the minds of youths from worldly activities.
The CYC Youths believe that they are the future of the church. Their coming together to discuss issues of importance that ensures the development of their various Ecclesias does not come as a surprise.
Several activities have been lined up to ensure a successful conference. These include: Bible Discussions in the morning and evening, general meetings to discussing and addressing issues of development that unites the Christadelphian Family in Sierra Leone, outdoor preaching, elections of new executives and indoor games.
The Christadelphians, “Brothers and Sisters in Christ”, are a body of Bible believing people, who aim to live by faith in Jesus Christ, according to the teaching of his followers from the first century AD, finding their instruction in a wholly inspired Bible. Central to Christadelphian belief is that Christ will one day return to the Earth to establish the Kingdom of God and grant eternal life to his people – those who have tried to follow him and God.
The fundamental Christadelphian beliefs are: The Bible is God’s word and the only message from him. It is without error, except for copying and translation errors. (2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 1:1. See also: The Bible, Why I Believe the Bible, and Alleged Biblical Errors.)
There is only one God – the Father. The Holy Spirit is God’s power. (John 17:3, Luke 1:35, Deuteronomy 6:4. See also God, Jesus and the Crucifixion, and The Trinity.)
Jesus is the Son of God, and also the son of a human being, his mother Mary, so making him Son of Man. Jesus was tempted just like us because of this. But Jesus was not just a great man, he was the Son of the Most High God, and was perfect. (Luke 1:30-31, John 3:18.See also God, Jesus and the Crucifixion, and The Trinity)
Man is mortal, having no existence when dead. (Psalm 6:5, Isaiah 38:18, Acts 2:29,34)
By living a sinless life, ending with his sacrificial death by crucifixion, Jesus has opened the way of salvation from death. (Hebrews 4:15, 1 Corinthians 5:7, 1 Corinthians15: 20-23, Galatians 3:27-29)
Belief and baptism are essential steps to salvation. (Mark 16:16. See also Baptism and Salvation.)
God raised Jesus from death. Jesus is currently in Heaven, on God’s right hand. He will one day return. (Acts 10:40, Romans 8:34, Acts 1:11)
When Jesus returns, he will raise his “sleeping” followers from death and grant immortality to the faithful who have tried to live by God’s precepts. (1 Corinthians 15:20-22)
His followers will help him to rule, bringing justice, righteousness and peace to the whole world – the Kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 15:23-26).
