The London Baptist Confession of Faith
The London Baptist Confession of Faith is a historical statement of beliefs used by Baptist churches, formulated in 1644-1646. It outlines core Christian doctrines such as the authority of the Bible, the nature of God, salvation through Jesus Christ, and the importance of baptism for believers. It emphasizes individual faith, the autonomy of local churches, and the importance of evangelism. While rooted in Reformed theology, it aims to clearly communicate Baptist principles, guiding church life and fostering unity among believers. It serves as a doctrinal framework that aligns Baptists around shared beliefs and practices.
