Statement of Faith
The Holy Bible is the
inspired Word of God and is the
basis for any statement of faith. The church subscribes to the
doctrinal system of "The Baptist Faith and Message" as adopted by the
Southern Baptist Convention on June 14, 2000. We band ourselves
together as a body of baptized believers in Jesus Christ personally
committed to sharing the good news of salvation to lost mankind. The
ordinances of the church are baptism and the Lord's Supper.
The Baptist Faith and Message" may be obtained by contacting First
Baptist Church of Lavon.
