UBF Statement of Faith

We affirm that the protestant Bible is the absolute inerrant and infallible word of God. We affirm a sovereign God, who exists eternally as one God revealed in three persons: co-equal, co-eternal, and co-existent. We affirm the person of Jesus Christ as being two natures perfectly joined with distinction yet without separation, both full divinity and full humanity at once. We affirm the person of the Holy Spirit and the necessity of His immediate baptism and indwelling in the life of every believer. We affirm the virgin birth, bodily resurrection, and expectancy of the physical second advent of the Lord Jesus Christ. We affirm that salvation is by grace, through faith, in the finished work of Christ on the cross alone, apart from any other human agency or work, and that such message is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We affirm believer’s baptism by submersion upon confession of faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. We affirm the proper government of the local church as being autonomous and congregationally ruled.  (We encourage the adoption of the London Baptist Confession of 1689as a comprehensive statement of faith)
