Friendship Baptist Church

We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as verbally inspired of God and inerrant in the original writing, and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life. (II Timothy 3:16,17; II Peter 1:19-21).  Pastor Brian preaches from the New King James Version.

We believe the Biblical account of Creation We believe the account of creation is a literal, historical account and not to be understood as allegory or myth. Man was created by the direct work of God without any evolutionary process. All men are descended from the historical Adam and Eve, first parents of the entire human race. (Genesis 1, 2; Colossians 1:16-17; John 1:3)

We believe in the one true God declared in the scriptures existing eternally and equally in the persons of the God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit; having essentially the same nature, attributes and perfections, and are worthy of the same homage, confidence and obedience. (Gen. 1:1, 26; Ex.20: 2-3; Deut. 6:4; Jeremiah 45: 5-6, 21-22; Matt.28:19; Jn.1:1,3; 10: 30; Acts 5:1-4; 1 Jn. 5: 7; Rom.1:20; Eph. 4:5,6; Colossians 1:16-17; 2:9)

We believe in God the Father, perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom, measureless in power.  We rejoice that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, that He hears and answers prayer; and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.

We Believe in God the Son. We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, conceived of the Holy Spirit, virgin-born, sinless in His life, making atonement for the sins of the world by His death.  We believe in His physical resurrection, and His bodily ascension into heaven, His lifelong intercession; and His future physical, imminent return for those who have trusted by faith in Him.(Isaiah 53; Matt. 1:18-25; Luke 1:26-38; John 20; Acts 1: 1-11; 1 Cor.15: 2-4; 2 Cor.5: 21; Heb.4:14-16; 7:25; 1 John 2:1)

We believe in the Holy Spirit who came from God to convict the world of sin, righteousness and judgment; and by His indwelling to regenerate, sanctify, comfort, instruct, and seal those who believe in Jesus Christ.(John 15:26; 16:7-14; Acts 1:8; 1 Cor.6: 19; Eph. 4: 30; 2 Timothy 1:7)
