Marble Hill Missionary Baptist Church
Statement of Faith
September 6, 1998
1. We believe in the verbal inspiration and divine authority of the Holy Scriptures. We
believe that the Bible reveals God, the fall of man, the way to salvation, and God's
planned purpose in the ages.
2. We believe in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
3. We believe that salvation is by God's grace with nothing added or removed. We
believe that salvation is eternal and can only be received by repentance and the
acceptance of Christ through faith in the Son of God, His life, His death, and His
resurrection.
4. We believe the book of Revelation to be literal with the prophetic teaching of the
visible, personal, and premillenial return of Jesus Christ. This includes the rapture of
God's church and the great tribulation following with God's wrath concluding the end of
time.
5. We believe in the conscious and eternal blessedness of those that are saved and the
conscious and eternal punishment of those that are lost.
6. We believe new membership can be added at Marble Hill Missionary Baptist Church
by four avenues: 1) By individual profession of faith followed by believer's baptism; 2)
By letter of recommendation from a another Baptist church; 3) By believer's baptism if
coming from another denomination and having an individual testimony of salvation; and
4) By statement if for whatever reason a letter of recommendation is not obtainable, yet
the person carries a testimony of salvation and previous believer's baptism into the
Baptist faith.
