THE MIDDLE VALLEY CHURCH OF CHRIST
1836 Thrasher Pike, Hixson, TN 37343
July 15, 1968 The Middle Valley church of
Christ had its beginning under a tent at the present Location. During
the ten-day meeting it was decided that we would erect a meeting place
to continue as a congregation of Christians working and worshiping together
for the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the glory of God in
this community. The Holy Scriptures would be our sole, only and complete
guide; the only articles of faith or rule of fellowship would be that
which is set forth in the Holy Writ for those of our age, that is, those
things taught by Jesus, confirmed by those that heard Him, practiced
by the early Christians, and set forth in the Holy Scriptures for us.
(Hebrews 1:1,2; Hebrews 2:1-5; Acts 2:42; 2 Timothy 3:16,17; Jude 3).
Every Person having the privilege and responsibility of reading, studying,
interpreting, and drawing their own conclusions from God's Word (2 Timothy
2:15) with whatever help from whatever source they may have access,
understanding that their interpretations and conclusions are their own
and cannot be law or doctrine for any other person. That all may freely
express and discuss their ideas with the group without binding or being
bound to comply with the views of another. All would, with love for
God and one another, strive to keep such discussions in the bounds of
decency and order, always keeping in mind that the Holy Scriptures are
the only full and final authority, the only rule for our faith and conduct!
In Short:
In Faith Unity - Romans 10:17
In Opinion Liberty - Romans 14
In All Things Love - John
13:34,35
As it was then, So is it now, Our Purpose,
Aim, Hope, and Prayer to continue in these principles with the hope
that it will ever be so as long as this world stands! We have, throughout
the years, withstood pressure from within and without to alter our
course and submit to personal views of groups and individuals as they
strive to make their inferences, opinions, and interpretations law
and doctrine. We are persuaded that they had and have good intentions
and are sincere in their efforts but we could not, cannot, and will
not allow the ideas of men to control those whose loyalty and obedience
belongs only to Jesus Christ, our prophet, King, and Priest! We are
more persuaded now than we were 30 years ago that no man or group
of men must ever be allowed to control God's people with their, inferences,
interpretations, and conclusions but must allow every Christian to
study and be guided by the pure and unadulterated word of the most
high God as set forth in the Holy Scriptures! On These Grounds We
Have Invited And Do Invite And Welcome All! We cannot, We Will Not,
We Must Never Tolerate Any Person Or Person's That Will In Any Way
Demand That We Accept And Bind Their Views! We Will Happily Discuss
With All And Any Whatever View They May Hold As Long As They Agree
To Let The Bible Speak Where The Bible Speaks And They Will Hold Their
Peace Where There Is No Clear "Thus Saith The Lord!"
"We Are Determined To Go
wherever God Through The Truth Shall Lead Us"
