Bible Baptist Church – What do we believe?   

THE BIBLE 
We believe the King James Version of the Bible to be the inspired Word of God.  The 66 books contained with the Bible are the complete message that God has given to us.  The Bible is without error and it will never be destroyed.(2 Ti 3:16 to 17:2; Peter 1:21; Mark 13:31)

THE GODHEAD 
We believe that God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are three persons yet equal in divine perfection each carrying on a distinct work in which all are in complete agreement. (1 John 5:3; Luke 3:21-22)

THE VIRGIN BIRTH 
We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Ghost and was born of the virgin Mary as no other child has been or ever will be born. (Matthew 1:18-25)

THE DIETY OF CHRIST 
We believe that Jesus Christ lived as a man yet was absolutely pure and without sin. (Hebrews 4:15; 7:26) 

The Second Coming
We believe that Christ came to this earth once to pay the price of sin and that he is coming again to receive the saints unto himself.  (Acts 1:11; 1 Th 4:16; Revelation 1:7)

CREATION 
We believe in the literal translation of Genesis Chapters 1 & 2 concerning the creation of the Earth, Man, Animals…all of the universe.

THE FALL OF MAN 
We believe that God created man in his own image and in a sinless state and that we fell from this condition by voluntary transgression and that we are all born in sin and under condemnation and will never be able to enter God's presence in this condition. (Genesis 1:27, 28; 2:16, 17; 3:6; Romans 3:10, 23; John 3:3)

SALVATION 
We believe that there is no way to heaven and eternal life except through the blood of Jesus Christ.  We are either completely saved or completely lost. Salvation is completely of the Lord and not of our own works.  Salvation comes from the Grace of God and has no bearing on baptism or any other act of obedience.  (John 3:3; 3:6, 7; 3:36; Romans 11:6; Ephesians 2:8,9).  

JUSTIFICATION 
We believe that we are just in God's sight and have our sins forgiven not through any works on our behalf but through the finished work of Jesus Christ. (Romans 8:1; Hebrews 1:3 & 7:27)

HEAVEN AND HELL 
We believe that heaven and hell are literal and not figurative and that only those trusting in Jesus Christ will be in heaven and all others will be in hell for all eternity. (Luke 16:22-23; Revelation 20:15 & 21:3-4)

BAPTISM
Spiritual Baptism & Immersion are not the same event.  
Immersian after salvation is in obedience to the commandment of our Lord.  

EVANGELISM
As the disciples we are told to go forth and teach the gospel.  We also believe according to Matthew 28:19-20, in that we are also called to preach, teach and to baptize others in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
