Faith Baptist Church1. We believe in the Bible as the inerrant, verbally inspired Word of God (2Timothy 3:16; 2Peter 1:21)

2. We believe in the trinity of the Godhead: one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (John 6:27; Ephesians 4:6; John 1:1; Hebrews 1:8; Acts 5:3,4; Matthew 28:19; 2Corinthians 13:14; 1 John 5:7)

3. We believe in the Christ’s deity (Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1; Hebrews 1:8)

4. We believe in the Christ’s virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:20-23)

5. We believe in the pre-tribulation, pre-millennial return of Christ (1Thessalonians 4:13-18)

6. We believe in the personality and work of the Holy Spirit (John 14:26; 16:8; Galatians 4:6; Romans 8:26); through whom men are regenerated (John 3:6) and led to repentance and faith (Romans 8:14); and that He convicts of sin (John 16:8-11)

7. We believe in the local aspect of the church as a body of believers, independent and self-governing, and is to edify itself (Ephesians 4:11-13), glorify Christ (Ephesians 3:20,21), and evangelize the world (Matthew 28:19,20; Acts 1:8)

8. We believe the two ordinances of the church

a. The Lord’s supper (1Corinthians 11:26)
b. Baptism by immersion (Acts 8:35-39)

9. We believe in the need for members of the local assembly to live fully separated from worldliness and ecclesiastical apostasy (Romans 16:17; 2Corinthians 6:14; 2Timothy 3:1-5; 1John 2:15-17)

10. We believe in the eternal security of the believer (John 10:29; Romans 8:29,30; Ephesians 1:13; 4:30; 1John 5:13) and in the bodily resurrection and translation of all believers at Christ’s return (1Corinthians 15:51,52; 1Thessalonians 4:13-18)

11. We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity should be engaged in outside of a marriage relationship between a man and a woman. (Genesis 2:24; 19:5, 13; 26:8,9; Leviticus 18:1-30; Romans 1:26-29; 1Corinthians 5:1; 6:9; 1Thessalonians 4:1-8; Hebrews 13:4)

12. We believe that human life begins at conception and that the unborn child is a living human being. Abortion, which constitutes the unjustified, unexcused taking of unborn human life, is murder (Job 3:16; Psalms 51:5; 139:14-16; Isaiah 44:24; 49:1, 5; Jeremiah 1:5; 20:15-18, Luke 1:44)
