Southern Baptist University Theological Seminary

Statements of Faith

INSTITUTE OF ARTS AND HUMANITIES
We affirm the fundamental principle of Liberalism.
There is no such thing as a theological principle, policy, or doctrine.
Every Individual has the right to decide whether to subscribe to a particular belief or to a particular practice in the spirit of freedom and choice.
INSTITUTE OF MESSIANIC BAPTIST STUDIES
We believe in One G-d, YHVH, expressed through the Father in Heaven, Messiah Yeshua-the Son, and Ruach HaKodesh-the Holy Spirit.
We also believe Yeshua was/is the promised Passover Lamb who died to cover the sins of all who look to Him.
He is also the promised Messiah and Deliverer of Israel.
Personal covenant with G-d is made through trusting in Yeshua's sacrifice and resurrection, which results in resurrection from the dead and eternal life.
All G-d's commandments are permanently valid until G-d Himself declares them void.This will happen only in the event that heaven and earth are desroyed.
INSTITUTE OF FUNDAMENTALIST BAPTIST STUDIES
We accept only the New Testament as our authority in all matters of faith and practice.
We believe the Church is to be made up of Saved and Baptized believers (by Immersion). We reject infant baptism.
We believe in strict separation of Church and State.
We believe in the priesthood of the believer.
We believe in the autonomy of the local Church.
