McNaughton Baptist Church (BGC) What We Believe
We believe that the whole Bible is God's revealed truth to us, and that He guided the writers so that the original writings were as He desired. The Bible is therefore the supreme authority in faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16) We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14) We believe Jesus Christ was conceived of the Holy Spirit, was born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man. (Matthew 1:18; Matthew 16:13) We believe man was created in the image of God and had fellowship with God, but that he sinned and therefore became separated from God and spiritually dead. From that time on all human beings have been born with a sinful nature. (Romans 5:12) We believe that the Lord Jesus died for our sins according to the Scriptures as substitute sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of his shed blood. (John 3:16) We believe that Jesus Christ rose bodily from the grave, ascended into Heaven, and is now there as our High Priest and Advocate. (Hebrews 7:25) We believe in the imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (John 14:3) We believe that all those, who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ, become God's children by His Spirit. (John 1:12) We believe in the bodily resurrection of all mankind, in the everlasting joy of the saved and the everlasting punishment of the lost. (John 5:28-29; Acts 24:15) We believe that God provided two ordinances for the Church: Holy Communion, and Baptism by immersion. We believe that every born again believer should keep these ordinances. (1 Corinthians 11:26; Romans 6:4)
