Baptist
Principles
As a Baptist Church that is part of the Baptist
Union of Great Britain we uphold the declaration of
principle of the Baptist Union as defined below:
1. That our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, God
manifest in the flesh, is the sole and absolute authority in
all matters pertaining to faith and practice, as revealed in
the Holy Scriptures, and that each Church has liberty, under
the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to interpret and administer
His laws.
2. That Christian Baptism is the immersion in
water into the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy
Ghost, of those who have professed repentance towards God and
faith in our Lord Jesus Christ who 'died for our sins
according to the Scriptures; was buried, and rose again the
third day'.
3. That it is the duty of every disciple to bear
personal witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and to take
part in the evangelisation of the world.
