NEW SALEM BAPTIST CHURCH
We believe the Bible is the verbally and plenarily inspired Word of God, inerrant in its original manuscripts. The Bible is our supreme and final authority in faith and life. (1 Timothy 3:16, and ll Peter 1:20, 21)
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1, 26; Matthew 28:19; John 1:1, 3; 4:24; Acts 5:3; Romans 1:20; Ephesians 4:5, 6; and ll Corinthians 13:14)
We believe that Jesus Christ is God and that He is eternal. Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man. (Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 1:26-38; Romans 9:5; and Titus 2:13)
We believe that the Holy Spirit is God and indwells every believer at the point of salvation. We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement; that He is active in the new birth; that He seals the believer unto the day of redemption, and that He makes intercession for believers unto the Father. (1 Corinthians 6:19, 13:8-10, 14:22; Romans 8:9, 26; John 3:5-6, 15:26, 16:8; Ephesians 4:30, 5:18; and 1 John 1:6-7)
