What is Salvation?

God has provided salvation through the Son of God (Second Person in the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit). For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

What is a Bible Study Group?

A bible study group is a place in which you can come to learn more about the bible faith. This consist of what Jesus did on the cross for sinners. He died buried and rose on the third day according to scriptures.

How old is the Baptist Church?

I've taken a different approach than most IFB churches, choosing to focus on the last 400 years (the past four centuries) of solid, doctrinal Baptist faith. While we acknowledge that other faithful groups existed throughout history—such as the Anabaptists and the Waldenses—our emphasis is on this more recent and well-documented period.

New Testament churches have flourished since the time of Christ. Spiritually speaking, one could trace the lineage of Baptist churches all the way back to Him.

However, the past four centuries stand out more than any other era. Since the 1600s, the fruit and labour of the Baptists have been clearly seen, recorded, and preserved.
