 Establishment of the Church: "When Did the Church of Christ Begin?" (The Bible Speaks:Article)
Please notice Acts 2:47 where it says, "And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." It is in the second chapter of Acts that we find the establishment of Christ's kingdom.
Acts 2:33 speaks of Christ seated at the "right hand of God," which is to say that He is king in His kingdom, the events of which took place about A.D. Please observe also that "kingdom" and "church" refer to the same institution.
For further proof that the church of Christ had its beginning on the first Jewish Pentecost following the resurrection of Christ, as recorded in Acts chapter 2, one might consider Mark 9:1, which tells us that the kingdom would come "with power" before some of the apostles died.
