Welcome
At First Baptist, we are committed to
biblical teaching, serving Jesus and his church, and making the beautiful person and work of Christ known
in our community and beyond.
Our Beliefs
We believe in the one living and true God: eternally existing in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (1 Peter 1:2)
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, eternal and inerrant. (2 Timothy 3:16)
We believe that all are sinners, and that sin is a violation of God's will which separates us from God. We can receive salvation through repentance of sin and a personal decision of faith in Christ's death, burial and resurrection. (Romans 5:1)
We believe in the literal existence of heaven and hell. Those who repent of their sins and accept the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior will spend eternity in heaven; those who do not will spend eternity in Hell. (Revelation 20:15)
We believe Christians are to care deeply for others, bearing one-another's burdens. (Galatians 6:2)
We are committed to reach others with the gospel of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 18:19-20)
We are committed to be a people devoted to prayer. (Acts 1:8)
We practice baptism by immersion as a declaration of the believer's confession of faith in Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:4)
We believe that Christians are to grow intentionally to be like Christ through a life-long process. (2 Peter 3:18)
