We try to read from God’s Word, the Bible, every day. The Bible has value in every significant situation in life.
See Romans 15:4.
OUR IDENTITY
At first, we did not have a name for our group, and there have been many different worldwide communities who have shared our beliefs over the last two thousand years.
Although the modern Christadelphian movement originated in the 1840s, starting in North America and the British Isles, it was only in 1861 that the name was created, during the outbreak of the American Civil War. Christian groups who did not fight were required to be registered.
The word “Christadelphian” combines two Greek words which together mean “brothers in Christ”, although there have always been sisters, too.
the1way.net is run by the Reigate & Banstead Dawn Christadelphians.
The Dawn Christadelphian fellowship has members across the globe, and the Reigate & Banstead Ecclesia is in the south-east of England. We’re just one of many ecclesias, which is the name given to our groups which meet together.

“…what does the Bible say?”
This is an incredibly important question.
The answers provide everything which is at the root of true Christian faith — and ours.
The background of the Christadelphians and even the origins of our name are sourced from Bible teaching.
Jesus describes his followers as his brothers in the New Testament.
In fact, the New Testament also says that the work of Jesus Christ is the only thing that lets humans have a future beyond the current trouble in this world. We believe this.
This means it is crucial for us to follow the teaching of God and Jesus Christ in its entirety, without altering it. Over the course of history, lots of changes have been made. We want to stay with the original version.
OUR CHRISTADELPHIAN LIFESTYLE
Our Christadelphian way of life, influencing everything we do, is a distinctive part of our existence. Each member of our community has a responsibility to follow the patterns that God has put in place.
Our beliefs
Our beliefs define us, and they show us the way to the change that we look for.
But these are not just our own ideas. We do not believe that anybody known as a Christadelphian has been given a special revelation from God, such as a dream, or a command to write a new book.
Instead, we’ve spent almost two hundred years trying to find the essence of Biblical teaching, as we believe this is God’s entire collection of wisdom, comfort and guidance to the current population of our world, handed down through the ages.
