@dct10181956 'The Church of Christ Starded with Jesus Christ"

Does the name Alexander Campbell and his "CAMELITE" followers have any past history in the founding of the church of Christ?

@axis4peace3 Churches of Christ in the US are not segregated. In the 1800s CoCs were progressive in promoting equal rights, encouraged non-segregated worship services and prominent members spoke against slavery. A lot of people attend CoCs close to their homes and a lot of areas in the US are predominately one race or another so you are going to find different CoCs with the majority of one race or another (as is generally same the case with other Christian communities as well).

The Church of Christ Starded with Jesus Christ it"s His church it has nothing to do with black or white. All This you are telling means nothing. Your here giving man glory don't you know the Glory All of it is due to The Lord Jesus Christ Only. If you were in the church of Christ you would know that and take this time to give the gospel to the lost.

For the life of me I do not understand what is the point of focusing on what certain brothers did for black or white people in the Lord? Are we not ALL brothers/sister in Christ regardless of our color/ethnicity?

Oh, and what's with the "Black Alexander Campbell" reference? How could he or his father Thomas "restore" God's kingdom when it will never end in the first place? Thomas Campbell wasn't baptized until he was an aged man and that by a "baptist" preacher! Smh.

Beautiful video. God bless you brothers.

@axis4peace3 Well, ours is independent as well. What I was saying is that all races are welcome to attend if they wish. We have a few black people who attend sporadically, and they are always made welcome.  I think people of different cultures like to come together with others like them, and it just so happens the races are along those lines. I like to visit other CoCs when I travel, without knowing whether they are primarily black or white. I know I will get a good biblical sermon anyway.

@alwayspatriotic

Well maybe your own individual congregation is like that; COC's are independent of each other (like mine is and rightly so). However, this was an observation made by a brother that in a town close by there was a COC with an afro american membership and another COC with a white membership.

I am thankful for the men, starting with Alexander Campbell, born in Ireland in 1788, who felt the need to get back to following only the Bible, and not the doctrines of men.

@axis4peace3 Our church is not segregated, anyone of any color may come. It is up to them to choose to come. We invite all to come, but force none

[axis4peace3]

Why is the Church of Christ segregated on color lines in the US?

This is wrong and not the same in europe
