Christadelphian Standards

This series examines the importance of upholding strong Christadelphian standards in a rapidly changing world. Each class explores a different aspect of discipleship, from personal integrity to ecclesial life, showing how God’s word provides both guidance and strength for our walk of faith. With practical exhortations and scriptural insights, these studies challenge us to remain separate from worldly influences, to strengthen our commitments, and to live with integrity as we await the return of Christ.

The Need for Standards and Objectives

The series opens with a call to recognize the value of God-given standards and the need to consciously uphold them. This class emphasizes that the truth is a precious heritage, and we must not drift with the changing times but actively raise and maintain the standards of our community and homes.

Commitments and Civilian Life

Here we consider the commitments made at baptism and how they shape everyday life. By looking at Christ’s example of endurance under trial, the class urges us to remain faithful in a world that constantly pulls at our priorities, showing that true discipleship requires dedication and separation from worldly entanglements.

Angelic Care, Prayer, and Thanksgiving

This study highlights the role of angelic care and the power of prayer and thanksgiving in sustaining Christadelphian standards. With reminders of God’s ever-present watch over His people, we are encouraged to live consistently with our prayers and to avoid provoking the divine care extended to us.

Love of the Brethren

True standards are not upheld by rules alone but by love within the body of Christ. This class explores the watchman’s responsibility to care for one another, to warn of danger, and to strengthen the ecclesia. It stresses that genuine love often means speaking truth and offering guidance in order to protect the flock.

Gospel Proclamation

Proclaiming the gospel is both a duty and a blessing. This class shows how preaching strengthens the ecclesia, renews personal conviction, and keeps the truth alive in each generation. With urgency and encouragement, it calls on disciples to share their faith with courage, trusting in God’s word as the answer to the world’s greatest need.

Integrity

The series concludes with the “bottom line” of discipleship: integrity. Without a good conscience, even the highest standards mean little. This closing exhortation reminds us that integrity requires speaking truth in our hearts, living consistently with our beliefs, and refusing compromise. With integrity, our standards become more than ideals—they become a living witness to God’s truth.
