What We Believe | Bible Baptist Church
Our Faith and Beliefs
Welcome to the "What We Believe" page of Bible Baptist Church! As an influential faith community dedicated to fostering spiritual growth and serving the greater Universal area, we are committed to sharing our beliefs and teachings to help guide individuals in their quest for understanding and salvation.
1. The Bible as Our Foundation
At Bible Baptist Church, we firmly believe in the authority and infallibility of the Holy Bible. We recognize it as the inspired Word of God, providing timeless guidance and truth for our lives. Through regular Bible study and worship, we seek to deepen our knowledge and understanding of God's word, allowing it to shape our beliefs, actions, and character.
2. The Triune Nature of God
Our faith rests on the belief in the triune nature of God - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We acknowledge one God who exists eternally in three persons, each distinct yet inseparable. Through this understanding, we embrace the beauty of the Godhead and seek to honor and worship our Creator.
3. Salvation through Jesus Christ
Central to our beliefs is the recognition that salvation is obtained solely through Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus, the Son of God, willingly sacrificed Himself on the cross to redeem humanity from sin and offers the gift of eternal life to all who place their faith and trust in Him. Through His grace, we are saved and reconciled to God.
4. The Power of Prayer
Prayer holds a significant place in our community. We believe in the power of prayer to connect with and seek God's guidance, wisdom, and provision. As individuals and as a congregation, we commit to cultivating a vibrant prayer life, recognizing that it deepens our relationship with God and allows us to experience His transformative power.
5. The Practice of Baptism and Communion
We observe two sacraments in our church: baptism and communion. Baptism is a symbolic act of obedience, signifying a person's identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Communion, often referred to as the Lord's Supper, represents the remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice and His ongoing presence in our lives.
6. Fellowship and Community Engagement
As a community of believers, we understand the importance of fellowship and the responsibility to impact our society positively. We strive to build authentic relationships within our church family, supporting and encouraging one another on our spiritual journeys. Additionally, we actively engage with the local community, demonstrating God's love through acts of service, outreach programs, and charitable initiatives.
7. The Second Coming of Christ
Looking toward the future, we eagerly anticipate the second coming of Jesus Christ. We hold to the belief that He will return triumphantly, bringing judgment, restoration, and the establishment of His eternal kingdom. This hope fuels our daily lives, encouraging us to live faithfully and to share the good news of salvation with others.
