Churches of Christ support Biblical inerrancy. They are also dispensational, in that they accept the Old Testament as illustrative (and useful for Christians to study) but not authoritative (i.e. the church is guided solely by the New Testament). Furthermore they do not accept any creeds or doctrinal statements as binding on the church (though they may not necessarily disagree with them).
They are generally amillenial in their views of the end times, and strongly oppose teachings on the Rapture.
