Statement of Faith for Unity Baptist Church 

We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old Testament and New Testament are the inerrant, inspired, and infallible Word of God. God’s Word is the final authority for faith and life (Matt. 22:36-40; 2 Tim. 3:16). 

We believe there is only one God, and He has chosen to reveal Himself as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit (Matt. 28:19; John 10:30; 17:3; 2 Cor. 13:14).

We believe man was created in the image of God. The sin of Adam (the first man) marred that image, creating an eternal divide between God and man. Every person is born in sin (Gen. 1:27; Rom. 3:22-23; 5:12). 

We believe the only way a person can have a true relationship with God is through Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, conceived by the Holy Spirit, and became man without ceasing to be God. Our right standing with God is made sure because of His death and resurrection (Matt. 1:20-23; 28:1-15; Acts 1:1-3; 2 Cor. 5:19-21; Phil. 2:5-11). 

We believe that Jesus will return again to judge the living and the dead (Matt. 24:44; Acts 1:11; Rev. 22:7, 12). 

We believe God offers eternal life as a free gift and that it must be received by faith alone through God’s grace alone. The life that comes from this gift is a permanent possession of the one receiving it (John 3:16; 10:27-29; Eph. 2:8-10). 

We believe the Lord Jesus Christ is building his church all over the earth. She is his bride and consists of people who have accepted him as Lord and Savior. As believers await Christ’s return, they are obligated to spread the Gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit (Matt. 16:18; 28:18-20; John 3:29; Acts 1:8; Eph. 5:24-27; 1 Pet. 2:4-5; Rev. 19:7).
