Statement of Faith: 1. We believe love for God and for one another are the greatest commandments. We cannot serve God without love in our hearts. Math. 22:35-40; I Cor. 13:1-3 2. We believe the whole Bible is inspired by God, and is our all-sufficient rule of faith and practice. II Tim. 3:16&17; Ps. 119:160 3. We believe Jesus started his Church during his personal earthly ministry. Math. 16:18; 18:17 4. We believe a person must be born again (saved) in order to escape hell and enter Heaven. John 3:3 5. We believe you are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus, and the requirements for salvation are repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. John 3:16; Acts 20:21; Eph. 2:8&9 6. We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts sinners, regenerates, seals, secures, and indwells every believer. John 16:8&9; Eph. 1:13&14 7. We believe a Church is a local visible body of scriptural baptized believers. Acts 3:41 8. We believe the Lord gave his Church the two pictorial ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Math. 26:26-29; Math. 28:19&20 9. We believe that scriptural baptism can be administered by a true New Testament Church only, and the candidate must be a born again believer. Only total submersion correctly pictures the death burial and resurrection of Jesus. Acts 8:12; Math. 28:18-20 10. We believe Jesus Christ is the head and founder of the Church, and no other ecclesiastical body may exercise authority over it. Eph. 4:15 11. We believe in the historical succession of our church and Baptist beliefs from the time of Christ until now. At no point in time has there ceased to exist a true New Testament Church with the Baptist beliefs. Eph. 3:21 |
