The Southern Baptist statement of belief is encapsulated in a document called The Baptist Faith and Message. This statement outlines key theological convictions and beliefs held by Southern Baptists. Here are some core elements:
The Bible: Southern Baptists believe the Bible is God’s revelation of Himself to humanity, with the ultimate revelation being the Gospel message of redemption through Jesus Christ.
Salvation: Emphasis is placed on personal faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, highlighting the redemptive work of Christ on the cross and the transformative power of His grace.
The Triune God: Belief in the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—as revealed in the Scriptures.
