What We Believe

  • The absolute accuracy of the Word of God; the Bible to be verbally inspired and all-sufficient as the Christian's rule of life and practice (II Timothy 3:16-17)
  • The total depravity of man through the fall of Adam (Genesis 3; Romans 5:12-19)
  • The uselessness of human works and merit to obtain salvation (Romans 4:5; Ephesians 2:8,9; Titus 3:5)
  • Man's absolute helplessness to please God in his unregenerate condition (Romans 3:9-19; 8:8)
  • Necessity for the new birth through the word and Spirit of God (John 3:3-7; I Peter 1:23-25)
  • The one true God manifested in three persons (Father, Son and Holy Spirit), equal in all things as eternity, omnipotence and omniscience (Matthew 28:19; II Corinthians 13:14)
  • The love of God for the entire world (John 3:16)
  • The virgin birth of Christ (Luke 1:26,35) and His absolute sinlessness (II Corinthians 5:21; I Peter 2:22)
  • The efficacy of the blood of Christ, apart from which there can be no salvation (Hebrews 9:22; Ephesians 1:7; Col. 1:20; I John 1:7); His vicarious death (Romans 5:6-8); His bodily resurrection from the dead (Romans 4:25; Luke 24:36-40); His visible ascension (Luke 24:50-51); His present enthronement (Hebrews 1:3); His priestly ministry and advocacy (Hebrews 7:25-26; I John 2:1)
  • Salvation by grace alone through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9; Acts 16:30-31)
  • The complete justification of the believer in Christ (Acts 13:38-39; Romans 5:1)
  • Present assurance of salvation (I John 5:11-13)
  • Present possession of eternal life by every true believer (John 5:24; 6:47)
  • Eternal security of the genuine believer (John 10:28-30; Romans 8:35-39)
  • The indwelling of every true believer by the Holy Spirit (I Corinthians 6:19; John 14:16-17)
  • Separation from sin and the world by the Christian and a godly life to the glory of God (II Corinthians 6:14; Titus 2:11-14)
  • The ordinances of the Lord's Supper and Baptism by immersion to be observed by the Church in the Lord's absence (Matthew 28:19; Acts 8:35-39, Romans 6:1-5; I Corinthians 11:23-26; Matthew 26:26-28; Acts 2:42)
  • The resurrection of all believers at the pre-millennial coming of Christ and the review and reward according to their life and works (Luke 14:14; John 5:28-29; Romans 14:10-12; II Corinthians 5:10; I Corinthians 3:11-15; I Corinthians 15:22-23)
  • The finished work of Christ through which complete and eternal atonement for sin has been effected (John 19:30; Hebrews 9:26,28; 10:12)
  • The rapture of the church, at the coming of Christ, to meet Him in the air (I Corinthians 15:51-57; I Thessalonians 4:13-18); the revelation of Christ at His coming to the earth prior to the setting up of His millennial Kingdom (I Thessalonians 1:6-10); the personal, literal reign of Christ over this earth for 1,000 years (I Corinthians 15:24-28; Revelation 19:11; 20:6)
  • The immediate entry into a literal hell of every person dying without Christ (Luke 16:19-31); the resurrection of all such to stand before the Great White Throne of judgment (John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:11-13); the consignment of all such into a lake of fire forever and ever (Matthew 25:46; Revelation 20:14-15)

About Fair Haven

We are an independent Baptist church founded in 1958. Our goal is to become like Christ by the power of the Spirit for the glory of the Father. Our prayer is that God would use us to share the good news of Jesus Christ and the hope that we have through Him.
