All Baptist churches are not alike.

Like other Baptists, Seventh Day Baptists believe in:

---salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ

--the Bible as the inspired word of God. The Bible is our authority both for our faith and our daily conduct.

--baptism of believers, by immersion, witnessing to our acceptance of Christ as Savior and Lord.

--freedom of thought under the guidance of the Holy Spirit

--the congregational form of church government. Every member of the church has the right to participate in the dec- ision making process of the church

 

So why are Seventh Day Baptists different?

Seventh Day Baptists observe the Biblical seventh day Sabbath, the day established and blessed by God at earth's creation. The Sabbath was given to mankind long before any distincions between Jew and Gentile.

God commanded that the seventh day (Saturday) be kept holy. Jesus agreed by keeping it as a day of worship. We observe the seventh day of the week (Saturday) as God's Holy Day as an act of loving obedience - not as a means of salvation. Salvation is the free gift of God through Jesus Christ.

The Sabbath provides believers with a specific time to honor and worship the Creator. It is the joy of the Sabbath that makes Seventh Day Baptists just a little bit different.
