Huisache Baptist Church is a local,
autonomous, Bible-believing congretation; preaching, teaching, and
practicing the Biblical principles of a New Testament church as taught
in the word of God. "All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness" II Timothy 3:16
We hold the Bible, the Holy
Scriptures, specifically the authorized 1611, King James Version as our
statement of faith and final authority in all matters of faith and
practice. We believe the Bible is God's Holy Word, penned by men who
God Himself "moved" to write (1 Peter 1:23, 2 Peter 1:21) and that Word
preserved by God is forever settled in heaven (Psalms 119:89), and that
it is inspired (2 Timothy 3:16).
We believe that the salvation of the
soul is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8,9) offered freely to all sinners
willing to repent and believe in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ
(Romans 6:23).
We believe that all who repent of
their sins and place their faith in Jesus Christ and His completed wor
for redemption are kept eternally secure by God who alone does the
saving, as well as the keeping (John 5:24, 17:10-11; Jude 1:24).
We believe that the church was
founded by Jesus Christ Himself (Matthew 16:13-18), is on a perpetual
mission (Matthew 28:18-19), is the only keeper of the ordinances of
baptism and the Lord's Supper (Matthew 28:20), is local, visible and
free (as seen by example in Acts, Corinthians and other New Testament
books), is indigenous, which implies both growth and replication, and
is the only institution specifically ordained of God for glory (both
present and eternal) (Ephesians 3:21).
We believe that saints of God are to
walk with God in a personal fellowship characterized by holiness (1
Thessalonians 4:7).
Believers are to grow in the grace
and knowledge of the Lord (1 Peter 3:18) and to allow the love of God
to guide their live (John 13:34-35).
