Our Beliefs

STATEMENT OF BASIC BELIEFS

We affirm the Holy Bible as the inspired Word of God and the basis for our beliefs. This church is a member of the Baptist General Convention of Texas and the Caprock Plains Association, and further subscribes to the Baptist Faith and Message as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1963. We voluntarily band ourselves together as a body of baptized believers in Jesus Christ personally committed to sharing the good news of salvation to lost mankind. The ordinances of the church are Believer's Baptism and the Lord's Supper.

OBJECTIVES

The objectives of this church are as follows:

  • To be empowered by the holy Spirit to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ as He commanded in Matthew 28:19-29, through personal witnessing and financial support, and by prayer and financial support of our missionaries;
  • To be a fellowship of baptized believers experiencing an awareness of God, recognizing His sovereignty and responding in worship and obedience to His leadership and will;
  • To help people experience a growing knowledge of God and man through the teaching of the Bible;
  • To minister lovingly and unselfishly to persons in our church, community and world in the name of Jesus Christ; and
  • To emphasize total commitment of life and possessions to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and to demonstrate the commitment daily.
