Our Faith
What We Believe
First Baptist Church of Media believes the Bible to be the Word of the living God, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. We rejoice to testify to the truth of the virgin birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, His sinless life, His vicarious death for sinful humanity, the efficacy of His shed blood, His bodily resurrection and ascension, His present ministry as intercessor and Advocate, and His personal, premillennial return for His own.
We are an independent Baptist church. As followers of Jesus, we are a part of the body of Christ, a local expression of the worldwide spiritual family of God. We are otherwise unaffiliated with any other denominational office or organization. Our support comes solely from the members of our local congregation.
