"The Bible says!"
This is the mantra
of Baptists throughout their history. The Bible as the sole rule
of faith is the core doctrine from which all others find breath.
These Christians consider the inspiration of Scripture (2nd Timothy 3:16&17)
as being an absolute doctrine for which they have been willing to
sacrifice their lives.
Interpreting every word as
literal, from the first "In" in Genesis to the last "Amen" in the Revelation,
is the foundation of all that they believe. Every word in the
Word falls from the mouth of God Himself. Therefore, no man is allowed
to change, delete, or add to what God has said.
The total confidence of the
Baptists in the innerency of the Bible has resulted in their adherence
to commonly held doctrines. Regardless of which groups, fellowships,
associations, or conventions they belong, these jointly held basic doctrines
mark them as being under the same Theological banner. From the most
conservative groups to the most liberal congregations, their name is
Baptists. |
