_Calvary Baptist Church Covenant

We, the members of Calvary Baptist Church, called by God’s grace to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior,[1] and having been baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,[2] enter into a covenant with each other in God's presence as the body of Christ.[3]  We will strive by the power of the Holy Spirit[4] and the Bible as our authority in all matters of doctrine and practice to do the following:[5]
  • glorify God by making disciples of all nations;[6]
  • be faithful in meeting together and joyfully worshiping the Lord;[7]
  • uphold Biblical doctrine and church discipline;[8]
  • observe the church ordinances of believer’s baptism and the Lord’s Supper;[9]
  • generously support the ministries of our church;[10]
  • bring up our children and youth in the training and instruction of the Lord;[11]
  • encourage one another to love and do good works;[12]
  • pray for one another;[13]
  • be loving and patient with one another, eager to maintain the unity produced by the Spirit;[14]
  • share each other’s joys and bear each other’s burdens;[15]
  • give and receive assistance and correction with humility and affection;[16]
  • be slow to get angry and always eager for reconciliation, seeking it without delay; and[17]
  • be faithful, self-controlled and upright in our dealings and responsibilities in this world.[18]
If we move from this area, we will as soon as possible unite with another local body of believers[19] where we can live out the principles of God’s word. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all.[20] Amen.
