Question
I am a member of the Church of Christ and was wondering if you believe that all of Baptist teaching can be found in Bible? If so, I would like you to give me scriptual reference.

Answer
Hi David,

Thank you for this great question.  I do believe that all the major Baptist doctrines are Biblically Based.  I would have to write volumes of books in order to explain every doctrine taught and the Biblical basis for these doctrines.  If you have a specific doctrine in question, I would be happy to show you scriptural basis for it.  If you would like, I could send our church doctrinal statement with scriptural backing, but it is pretty long.  

Please send me a follow up so that I can better answer your question.  Thanks.

In Christ

Expertise

I believe that every word of the Bible is God-Breathed. This blessed book is the foundation of truth for faith and practice. If you ask this volunteer a question you will receive an answer from the Bible that is based upon a litteral, normal interpretation, taking into account the grammar and culture of the time.

Experience

I have been in the ministry almost 20 years. During this time, the Lord has used me as Senior Pastor, counsellor, youth pastor and generally in the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry.
