As
Baptists we believe in the truths
expressed in the historic creeds (principles) of the Church. They lay a particular
emphasis
on the importance of personal faith in Jesus Christ, as Saviour and
Lord, and
on the Bible as God’s Word, guiding our conduct as individuals and as a
Church.
As a
Baptist
Church
one of our distinctive features is our practice of Christian baptism.
We follow
the New Testament pattern of baptising by total immersion those who
have come
to personal faith in Jesus Christ.
As
Baptists we also lay stress on the
responsibility of each local church to govern its own life and affairs. |
