Religious Organisations in Southend-on-Sea, Essex

The Open Bible Learning Group is for those enquiring into the Bible, the revealed Word of God. Members of the Open Bible Learning Group first met in 1957 in the Reading Rooms Billericay High Street, as a place of study and worship. We are Christadelphians; (ordinary people from diverse backgrounds who have studied the Bible and questioned traditional mainstream Christian teaching). Christadelphians have for well over 150 years devoted their lives to an objective study and understanding of the scriptures as God's revelation to man. They apply this understanding to every aspect of their lives in accordance with the teaching of Jesus' followers established in the first century AD. This is a significant commitment, as it entails a complete change in the whole way of life of the individual in question. Each member of the group strives to live their lives in complete obedience to Jesus' commandments, statutes and precepts. This is the hope of the Bible that, through the mercy of God, eternal life might be conferred on them by Jesus Christ, God's son, when he returns to the earth.
