Missions to America's Juvenile Delinquents

Revelation 3:8
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Statement of Faith

Faith Baptist Church is an Independent Baptist Church.

1. We believe that the Bible, both Old and New Testaments is the complete, inerrant, infallible, revelation from God and is verbally inspired of God. We believe that the King James 1611 Authorized Version is God's preserved Word for the English speaking people today.

2. We believe that God is Supreme in His person, Eternal in His being, Absolute in His attributes, and Glorious in His perfection.

3. We believe that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross of Calvary for the sin of mankind, was buried, rose on the third day and ascended to heaven to prepare a place for those that trust in Him. We believe that Jesus Christ will one day return to rapture His church and then return with His church, after seven years (tribulation), to set up His earthly kingdom which will last for 1000 years.

4. We believe the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead and that He executes the plan for God for conviction and salvation. Christians are partakers of the Holy Spirit and empowered for service by Him.

5. We believe that man was created in the image of God, and by choice fell into sin and death, hence every person is sinful and under condemnation to eternal judgment.

6. We believe in salvation by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and that in Him alone is the only way to heaven. We believe that the condition of salvation is repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work, and that salvation produces a new creature. We believe that baptism is not for salvation but is obedience to the Lord after salvation. We believe that this is accomplished by submersion and in doing so identifies you with the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, but does not wash away sin.

7. We believe that those who receive Jesus Christ as their Saviour, are eternally secure. Our security rests on the finished work of Jesus Christ.

8. We believe that a true New Testament church is a called out, born again body of baptized believers set apart to do God's business, practicing New Testament principles, believing its doctrine, observing its ordinances, and exercising its autonomy. We do believe there is a mystical body of Christ, of which He is the Head.

9. We believe in a literal Heaven for those that are saved and a literal Hell for those that are lost. We believe in a pre-tribulation rapture of the church, where Jesus Christ will return for those who have believed on Him.
