What We Believe

Confessions

What we believe can be summarized by the two confessions below.

We believe confessions are meaningful as they express important doctrines of Scripture in an ordered and systematic way. The documents linked below are not inspired, but summarize words that are inspired. 

The primary confession that we use is the Baptist Faith and Message 2000. While there are many great historical confessions, this one most clearly summarizes our beliefs. This confession does not veer away from great confessions of the past, but adds in a few important areas, primarily the biblical view of marriage and the family. 

In addition to the Baptist Faith and Message, the New Hampshire Confession of Faith (1833) is also a confession that helps articulate our views on Scripture. This confession merges and speaks well to the doctrines of the sovereignty of God and the freedom of man.
