North Graham Baptist Church
A Historical Southern Baptist Church
...earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints.- Jude 3b
Scripture Alone - Faith Alone-Grace Alone - Christ Alone - to the Glory of God Alone
North Graham may be unlike any Baptist Church you have attended!
Many churches today seek a contemporary label, or desire to be sensitive to seekers. At North Graham we are seeking a more traditional worship. A worship where believers are aware of the majesty of God, the centrality of Christ and recognize the importance of repentance in worship. We celebrate a monthly communion, recite the ancient creeds, include liturgical elements, and are committed the primacy of the preached Word.
Join with us this Lord's Day.
We believe in One God, the Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and Earth, Of all things visible and invisible.
We believe in One Lord, Jesus Christ the only son of God. God from God, light from light, true God from true God. Begotten not made, of one being with the father, Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, By the power of the Holy Spirit He was made man. For our sake He was crucified died and was buried. He rose again in fulfillment of the scriptures And is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead And of His kingdom there will be no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life Who proceeds from the Father [and Son], Through the father and son is glorified, He has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic (universal) and apostolic church We believe in communion of saints, the resurrection of the dead And the life of the world to come.
Welcome to North Graham Baptist Church,
We are a small congregation of believers in Graham NC. Our desire is to win the lost to Christ and to live our lives (as a church and as individuals) in such a way as to be a "theater for His glory". We believe that one of the chief purposes of the church, and for the elect is to make manifest the manifold wisdom of God to the principalities and the powers.
Our beliefs are simple and rooted in the Word of God:
- We believe that the bible is inerrant,and infallible in the original manuscripts. We believe that the bible has been preserved through the superintending hand of almighty God and is the lone authority for our faith and practice. We believe that the miracles recorded in the bible are real events showcasing God's control over His creation.
- We believe in the deity of Christ, the virgin birth and the death, burial and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. We believe that Christ ascended into heaven and is coming again in power and great glory.
- We believe in the everlasting physical blessedness of the saved and the everlasting physical punishment of those who fail to come to Christ in repentance and faith.
- We believe that salvation is by God's sovereign electing grace. We cannot earn salvation by our works of righteousness or merit it by our innate goodness. We believe man is sinful by nature and by deed. Only those who come by grace alone, through faith alone in Christ alone will be saved.
The above statements are a summary of our beliefs.
We also affirm the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith, 1689 as a detailed explanation of where we stand.
We also ascribe to The Baptist Faith and Message, 2000 as a general statement of faith.
