We believe in the verbal inspiration and
authority of all Scriptures. We believe that the Bible reveals
God, the fall of man, the way of salvation, and God's plan and
purpose in the ages.
We believe in God the Father, God the Son
and God the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the Deity, Virgin Birth,
and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord.
We believe that salvation is "by Grace"
plus nothing and minus nothing. The conditions of salvation are
repentance and faith.
We believe that men are justified by faith
alone and are accounted righteous before God only through the
merits of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
We believe in the visible, personal and
premillennial return of Jesus Christ.
We believe in the everlasting conscious
punishment of the lost.
We believe in the freedom of religion,
and the autonomy of the Baptist Church. Sweethaven Baptist Church
is to be self-governed by the local body and is never to be dictated
to, or controlled by any outside persons or forces.
We believe that Sweethaven Christian Academy,
Preschool and Extended Care Programs are a direct ministry of
Sweethaven Baptist Church, and have the mission to preach and
teach Jesus Christ, in order to fulfill the biblical commission
of a daily ministry. (Acts 5:42)
