Palatka Baptist’S main purpose is:
Presenting the Gospel to those in our community and around the world.
Providing Biblical teaching and training to equip for ministry.
Producing Christ-like maturity in the lives of our members.
Proclaiming and magnifying the name of Jesus Christ through worship.
We Believe:
That there is one God, manifest in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit
That Jesus is the Son of God, was born of a virgin, was wholly God and wholly man, lived a sinless life, died as a substitutionary sacrifice for the sin of mankind, was buried, arose bodily from the grave and ascended into Heaven
In the literal, imminent return of Jesus Christ to earth
That the Bible is the Word of God without error, the sole authority for life
That man is a unique creation of God, made in His image
That mankind fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and that all men are sinners in need of salvation
That salvation is a gift given through repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ
That every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ
That persons who die in their sins spend eternity in Hell and those persons who die with their sins forgiven spend eternity in Heaven
That the church is a local body of baptized believers with the Lord Jesus Christ as the Head
