What We Believe
Bible Baptist Church is:
Independent...we are not a part of any convention or organization
Fundamental...we believe the entire Bible is God’s Word
Scriptures
We believe the Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of God and it is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice. For reasons of unity within the church and textual reliability, we choose to use only the Kin

End Times
Jesus Christ will soon come again in the air to catch up His Church and to reward their service. The unbelievers left behind will go through a period of seven years known as The Tribulation. After this seven years, Christ will return to the earth to establish His Kingdom for one thousand years. Following this kingdom age, unbelievers of all ages will stand at the Great White Throne to be judged and cast into the Lake of Fire, separated from God forever. The saved will spend eternity in the fullness of joy in Heaven with the Lord. Matthew 24:29-42
