Baptist Confession of Faith

The Baptist Confession of Faith is a document that outlines the beliefs and practices specific to Baptists, a branch of Protestant Christianity. It emphasizes the authority of the Bible, the importance of faith in Jesus for salvation, and the necessity of baptism by immersion for believers. Baptists believe in individual liberty of conscience and the autonomy of local congregations. The confession serves as a guide to doctrine and helps unify Baptist churches in their understanding of key theological concepts, including the nature of God, the church, sacraments, and moral living.
