OUR DOCTRINE

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)
