First Baptist Church

First Baptist Church in Marysville, OH is a Southern Baptist Church that adheres to the Baptist Faith Message adopted in June 2000. They believe in the Bible as the fully inspired and without error Word of God, with supreme authority in all matters of faith and life. They affirm the existence of one living and true God in three persons, executing distinct but harmonious roles in creation, providence, and redemption. The church emphasizes the infinite, personal spirit of God the Father, His involvement in the affairs of humanity, and His salvation through Jesus Christ. They also believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, intercession, and future return. The Holy Spirit is recognized as a divine person, equal with the Father and the Son, convicting, regenerating, sanctifying, and empowering believers. Salvation is seen as a free gift from God, received through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, resulting in regeneration and eternal life. The church affirms the eternal security of salvation, maintained by the grace and power of God, and believes in the existence of heaven and hell as places of eternal existence. They emphasize the importance of the local church, its role in worship, good works, fellowship, and the primary task of sharing the gospel. Christian maturity is encouraged through living for the glory of God, caring for others, and faithful stewardship.
