The Church of Christ is the Church of the New Testament
The religious world is confusing. It has so many churches and doctrines. Yet we know that God is not the author of this confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). God gave us His instructions on how His Church should worship Him.
How can I know which church is the Church of the New Testament?
The simple answer is that Christians must keep the principles found in the Bible since it is the Word of God. Jesus made it clear that it is by His Word that all men will be judged on the last day.
He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him —
the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. (John 12:48)
Christians must keep the word of God as it is without adding or substracting from it.
18For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (Revelations 22:18-19)
The disciples of Christ abide in His Word. Learning the truth of God's word will set you free.
If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8:31ff-32)

The establishment of the Church of Christ
The Church was predicted by the prophets of the Old Testament (Isaiah 2:2-3; Daniel 2:44) as well as by Jesus Himself (Matthew 16:18). Jesus told His apostles that they would receive power from the Holy Spirit to guide them into the truth (Luke 24:49; John 16:13; Acts 1:4-8). The apostles received this power on the day of Pentacost (Acts 2) and the Church was and is formed by those who believe the message, repented, and were baptized (Acts 2:38, 41, 47).
