The following marks are distinctive, though not exclusive, to the Baptist tradition and will help you understand the great history we stand upon:

Mark #1: Biblical Authority

Mark #2: The Lordship of Christ

Mark #3: Regenerate Church Membership

Mark #4: Church Discipline

Mark #5: Congregational Polity

Mark #6: 2 Ordinances: Baptism by Immersion and the Lord's Supper

Mark #7: Soul Competency/Priesthood of the Believers

Mark #8: Security of the Believer 

At CrossPoint, our core beliefs are stated in the Baptist Faith and Message 2000. This statement of Faith details our beliefs concerning God, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, Man, Sin, Salvation, and more. The following statements, hallmarks of the Protestant Reformation, summarize our core beliefs.

#1: Sola Scripture - Scripture Alone

#2: Sola Fide - Faith Alone

#3: Sola Gratia - Grace Alone

#4: Sola Christe - Christ Alone

#5: Sola Deo Gloria - To the Glory of God Alone

 To these, there is no compromise. These are etched in scripture and we hold them up highly. For those negotiable tenets we turn to our Baptist Faith and Message to guide us. To be sure, we desire to hold a high view of God as sovereign over all and our desire is to lift up His name to the nations.
