What We Believe - Bible Baptist Church
Welcome to Bible Baptist Church
Welcome to the What We Believe page of Bible Baptist Church! As a faithful community dedicated to serving and honoring the Lord, we take our faith and beliefs seriously. In this comprehensive guide, we will provide you with a detailed overview of our core values, doctrines, and principles that shape our Christian faith and practice.
Our Statement of Faith
At Bible Baptist Church, we base our beliefs on the teachings of the Holy Bible, which we consider to be the inspired Word of God. Our Statement of Faith serves as a guide, outlining our foundational beliefs:
1. The Bible as the Infallible Word of God
We firmly believe that the Bible is God's infallible and inerrant Word, containing all necessary truth for salvation and spiritual guidance. The Scriptures are divinely inspired by God Himself and serve as our ultimate authority in matters of faith, doctrine, and Christian living.
2. The Trinity – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
We believe in the existence of one true God, eternally existing in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity has distinct roles, yet they are equal in power, glory, and essence.
3. Salvation by Grace Through Faith
We affirm that salvation is a gift of God's grace and is received by faith in Jesus Christ alone. We believe that every individual is born into a fallen state due to sin, and only through accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior can one be redeemed and experience eternal life.
4. The Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ
We firmly believe in the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. Through His death, burial, and bodily resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, providing the way for us to have a restored relationship with God.
5. The Holy Spirit and Spiritual Gifts
We acknowledge and embrace the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers. The Holy Spirit indwells every believer, equipping them with spiritual gifts for edifying the body of Christ and empowering them for effective Christian living and service.
6. The Church and Its Mission
We believe that the Church is the body of Christ, consisting of all true believers. As a local church, we are committed to fulfilling the Great Commission, proclaiming the gospel, making disciples, and actively engaging in community outreach.
7. The Second Coming of Christ
We eagerly anticipate the glorious return of Jesus Christ, where He will judge the living and the dead. We believe in the ultimate triumph of God's kingdom and the eternal dwelling of believers with Him in heaven.
Our Core Values
As a church community, we strive to live out our beliefs through a set of core values that guide our actions and interactions:
1. Worship
We value heartfelt worship, giving honor and adoration to God in both individual and corporate settings. Through worship, we connect with the Lord and experience His presence.
2. Prayer
We believe in the power of prayer as a means of communication with God. Prayer is an integral part of our personal relationship with Him and serves as a foundation for seeking His will and guidance.
3. Biblical Teaching
We are committed to providing sound, biblically-based teaching that equips believers to understand and apply God's Word in their daily lives. We prioritize the study of Scripture and its practical implications.
4. Fellowship
We value authentic relationships and encourage fellowship within our church community. Through gatherings, small groups, and shared experiences, we support and encourage one another in our spiritual journey.
5. Service
We believe in using our God-given gifts and talents to serve others selflessly. We seek opportunities to make a positive impact in our local community and beyond, reflecting God's love and compassion.
6. Evangelism
We are passionate about sharing the life-transforming message of the gospel with others. We actively engage in evangelism and outreach, seeking to lead people to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
