Confession of Faith (Baptist)

The Confession of Faith (Baptist) is a statement that outlines the core beliefs shared by Baptist churches. It emphasizes the authority of the Bible, the importance of personal faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, and the practice of believer’s baptism—baptizing individuals who have personally chosen to follow Christ. It also affirms the autonomy of each local church, the priesthood of all believers, and the necessity of evangelism. Overall, it serves as a guiding document that reflects Baptist convictions about Scripture, salvation, baptism, and church practice, uniting members around common theological principles.
