Our Mission:
We are a family of God who demonstrates the love of Christ by celebrating the presence of God ( Our Worship), by caring for one another ( Our Fellowship) by reaching out to our community ( Our Missions), and by learning and growing through God's Word ( Our Discipleship).
Our Statement of Faith:
There is one God: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; who subsist in unity, and also as three separate distinct Persons.
Jesus Christ is God’s Son. He was born of a virgin as both God and man, lived a sinless life, died to atone for the sins of human beings, was buried, arose from the grave, ascended into heaven and will literally return to earth.
About the Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is the divine helper, assistant, counselor and instructor and His work is to reveal Christ, convict of sin, lead to repentance, guide believers, comfort, strengthen, and sanctify the soul.
About the Bible: The Bible is God’s Holy Word, without error, and is the sole authority for life.
Human beings are the special creations of God, made in His image. They fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and all human beings are sinners in need of salvation.
Salvation is a gift through repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ. Every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ and will spend eternity in heaven, while those who die in their sins will spend eternity in hell.
Baptism is by immersion after salvation and is done in obedience to Jesus Christ’s command.
Each believer has direct access to God through the Lord Jesus Christ.
FBC Batesburg is a cooperating church with the South Carolina Baptist Convention, The Southern Baptist Convention, and the local Ridge Baptist Association.
