First Baptist Newport - 455 Hands Mill Hwy, Rock Hill, SC

The Purpose of the Church:
We feel that our primary purpose as the body of Christ is to glorify God by:
(1) contributing to our fullest in the work of spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ (evangelism);
(2) while maintaining true worship to our Savior and Lord (worship);
(3) through the edification and growth of His family (discipleship);
(4) ministering to the community (ministry);
(5) while being led by the Holy Spirit in fellowship with the family of God in Truth and in Spirit (fellowship).


The Bible:
We whole heartedly, without any hesitation, believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God, which is our absolute authority, and is completely sufficient for every aspect of our Christian lives. We believe the Bible is God’s final word and reveals the work of His Son, Jesus the Christ, as our only hope of salvation. The Bible also reveals that God is Triune, and reveals Himself as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit that leads believers to know and act out the truth of God’s word in their lives.
