Membership

We believe that the truth of God’s word, as revealed in the Holy Bible is the only foundation of our faith and is the only sufficient guide for the Christian life, practice and doctrine. In light of this we have adopted three documents that express our commitment to follow the Scriptures in vital areas. Our Confession of Faith declares what we believe the Bible teaches, our Church Constitution outlines biblical principles of how we are to govern our church and our Church Covenant expresses how we relate with one another as members of the congregation.

At Wilderness Road Baptist, we believe that church membership is for our encouragement, instruction and protection. Being a member is therefore viewed as a covenantal commitment between an individual and a congregation.

To qualify for membership, a person must be a believer in Jesus Christ who gives evidence of regeneration, who has been baptized, in obedience to Christ, following his or her regeneration, and who wholeheartedly believes in the Christian faith as revealed in the Bible. Each member must agree to submit to the teaching of scripture as expressed in the Statement of Faith and must promise by God’s grace to keep the commitments expressed in the Church Covenant. Those desiring to unite with us shall then be recommended by the elders for admission and accepted by vote of the members at any regular or special meeting of the members.
