WELCOME TO
ADAMSVILLE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Loving God - Loving People

 

We believe:

...that God is, God was and God shall ever be.  He exists today as he existed before the world ever was and will exist after this world is gone.

...in the Holy Trinity, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

...that God the Son, Jesus Christ, took the earthly form of a man, was born of a virgin, lived among mankind, died on the cross for our sins and rose on the third day.

...that it is only by the acceptance of Jesus Christ as the true and living Son of God, seeking forgiveness of our sins, and asking Him to come into our heart to live within us that we can be born again and have eternal life in heaven, and that this is a free gift of God and not as a result of anything we deserve, have done or will ever be able to do.

...that the believer can and should feel secure in their salvation and that if a person has been truly reborn they will have the desire to demonstrate that in their daily living.  Not that one will never sin again, but one will no longer be able to sin without guilt and the need to seek forgiveness.

...that the Bible is the true and inspired Word of God.  While many other good books exist and may be used to bring a better understanding, the Word of God is the ultimate source and authority of teachings for a lost and dying world.

...that while there is no saving power in baptism, a person should follow Christ’s example and follow him in a full immersion baptism and become part of a local congregation.

Further, we have chosen to align with and support certain organizations, associations and conventions but to be governed by none other than God and His Holy Scriptures.   We believe strongly in the autonomy of the local church and their right to make their own decisions and choose their own path based on the leadership of the Holy Spirit as discerned through prayer and study of Gods Holy Word.
