We believe the Bible is the Word of God.
We believe in the King James Version of the Bible.
We believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as payment for our sins, and rose from the dead on the third day.
We believe that the only way a person can go to Heaven when he dies is to first place his faith in the payment that Jesus Christ provided with His shed blood on the cross.
Lighthouse Baptist Church is just a Baptist church, Once a person is saved by putting his faith in Jesus, we are commanded to be baptized by immersion to show to others what took place when we trusted Christ; we do this in obedience, not to save us but to show that we have been saved.
We believe in participating in the Lord’s Supper on a regular basis to remember the payment Jesus made for us and to express our love to Him for that payment. The Lord’s Supper is not kept to take us to Heaven, but to thank Jesus for His sacrifice.
We believe that the Bible is what claims to be: the Word of God.
We take instruction from the Bible literally.
We believe what it is actually saying, not that it is an allegory or a fable.
We take instruction from the Bible in the areas of life and faith and go to it for the answers of life. In a day when opinion polls and media agendas steer our social conscience, we believe that we should first seek God’s opinion on any subject before forming our own.
We believe that the family unit should be strong and healthy. The first institution God made on earth was the family. Programs in the church are geared to help build strong families. Lighthouse Baptist Church provides fellowship, friendship, and support services through our social activities.
We believe that the only requirements for church membership are salvation and baptism by immersion.
We believe that it is our responsibility, as outlined in the Bible, to spread the Gospel in our area, nation, and world. (Mark 16:15) (Matthew 28:18-20)
We believe that Christians should talk, behave, live, and dress like a citizen of Heaven. The basis for these standards is found in the Bible. We make no apology for our conservative beliefs in many areas, including music, social issues, dress, and behavior.
We believe that a church should be filled, not with spectators, but participants.
We believe a church should be described as a spiritual hospital where people come for spiritual healing, not a spiritual museum where the relics of “Pherisee-ism” are displayed.
We are careful stewards of God’s money. We strive to be honest and respectable.
We believe God’s business is the greatest business in the world.
