MISSION & BELIEFS | Cambridge Baptist Church

OUR MISSION

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness”, made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. - 2 Corinthians 4:6-7

Our mission is to bring God's hidden treasure into the light, and to build up the body of Christ by equipping God's people for works of service and bringing them to maturity in their faith so they can attain to the whole measure and fullness of Christ.

Ephesians 4:11-13

OUR BELIEFS

At Cambridge Baptist we believe in:

The true humanity and Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
The atonement made on the cross by our Lord for the sin of the world
The person of the Holy Spirit who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness and judgement, and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Christ, and that He is an abiding helper, teacher and guide.
The inspiration of Scripture as the Word of God and its authority in all matters of faith and practice
Salvation and membership in the church by faith in Christ alone
The immersion of believers as the only scriptural form of baptism
