Long Island Church of Christ

The Long Island Church of Christ is a bible-based church. We generally speak where the Bible speaks and are silent where the Bible is silent. The Bible is our only guide— no man-made additional creeds/booklets/instructions are required.

The absolute guidance from the scriptures is taken from three hermeneutical principles:

- We follow commandments of the scriptures
- We follow examples from Jesus, the Apostles, and early Christians
- We derive necessary inferences from the scripture

In line with our doctrinal/Biblical beliefs, our worship services always consist of the following practices to mirror the First Century Church in the New Testament:

- Singing (a capella: the way of the early church, without instrumental music)
- Preaching (study of God’s word)
- Prayer
- Giving (weekly)
- Communion/Lord’s Supper (weekly)
