Our active vision statement.
Driven by the Glory of God Isaiah 43:7
The reason for our existence is to glorify God, He alone is worthy of glory, honor, and praise. Bethel Baptist Church passionately and deliberately draws attention to God in all that we do, corporately and individually.Passionate for the Gospel Romans 1:16
There is no greater way to glorify God than to point people to the person of Jesus Christ. Because of His gospel, we should be humbled at the love, grace, mercy, holiness, and character of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Bethel Baptist Church intentionally focuses on and shares Christ through all of our ministry opportunities.
Motivated by Grace II Corinthians 3:18
Bethel Baptist Church desires to create a fertile environment for believers to become more like Christ. Living in grace is not a liberty that allows a believer to choose a lifestyle independent of the Scriptures, nor is it reduced to a list of rules to gain favor with God. Growing in grace is a process that involves God the Holy Spirit working in each believer's life to grow into a mature faith. It is our desire to provide an environment which challenges believers to hunger and thirst after righteousness.
Our beliefs.
The Bible is the verbally inspired, inerrant, infallible Word of God.
God is eternally existent in three Persons - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
God created man in His own image.
We acknowledge the deity of Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death on the cross, His bodily resurrection, and His Second Coming.
Eternal life belongs to those who repent of their sins and place their faith in Jesus Christ.
The local church, made up of baptized believers, is God's means of carrying out the Great Commission.
We believe in a literal heaven for all believers and a literal hell for those who reject Christ.
