Coward Baptist Church Follows The Holy Bible

By Michael Ward


Righteousness makes a nation great. On the other hand, sin condemns any people. According to the Holy Bible, to do good is to do justice and righteousness. Goodness also involves facilitating peace. These are the exact messages that are quite common in the sermons of Coward Baptist Church because it is a 100% Bible believing church. America and most Western nations are Christian nations. As the Bible predicted, Christianity has finally reached the furthest parts of the world. That makes it the most dominant religion on earth with billions of followers. Every day, Christianity is growing.

Christianity has had a very long history. It all started in Jerusalem, Israel and then the good message reached Europe and the Catholic Church was eventually formed. Most people of the Roman Empire ended up converting to Catholicism. After some centuries of Catholicism, Reformation took place and the Protestant faith started. Eventually, Protestant churches such as Baptist, Lutheran, Anglican, Episcopal among others were formed.

Baptist believers just like other Christians usually follow the Bible. They believe that the Bible is the ultimate reference of the Christian. A true believer knows that there is no book on earth that is superior to the Holy Bible. That is due to the fact that it is the inspired word and it is 100% true. The Bible never lies.

The Holy Bible is not a new book. As a matter of fact, it is the oldest book on earth. Up to today, useful manuscripts are still being unearthed in places like the Red Sea. The scripture is very steadfast and it is a rock that can never and will never be shaken. It is always true and never fails.

According to Scripture, one has to be born again. It is not about being born again in a physical sense but rather in a spiritual sense. That means that one has to undergo baptism. As a matter of fact, the Baptists believe in baptism. This involves total immersion into water. The baptism activity can take place in a river or lake.

It is the age of grace. However, grace will not last forever. Baptists believe on such lofty Biblical issues such as grace and baptism. They also believe in the repentance of sin and the subsequent turning way from sin and leading a holy life. Every man is a sinner by birth. However, forgiveness of sin and salvation are free.

Another Biblical emphasis is the need for fellowship. No one can say that he is a lone wolf Christian. A believer needs to fellowship with others. There are many examples of fellowship in scriptures. Baptists value the importance of fellowship. That is why there is usually Sunday service and weekly services. One should pay close attention to the Sunday sermon.

One is not merely a physical being. Everybody also has a spirit. Of course, it is desirable to feed the body with nutritious foods. One should also dress in the best manner possible. However, what is even more important is to feed the spirit with the messages of the Bible. Spiritual growth is a good thing. A Christian should grow in his faith.
