Our Beliefs

Eastside Baptist Church holds historic Christian and Baptist convictions in a spirit of grace, truth, and love.

God and Scripture

We believe in one God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe the Bible is God’s inspired Word and the final authority for faith and practice.

Jesus Christ and Salvation

We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, lived without sin, died for our sins, rose bodily from the grave, and offers salvation by grace through faith to all who trust Him.

The Church and Mission

We believe the church is a local body of believers called to worship, discipleship, fellowship, and gospel witness in Belzoni, Mississippi, and beyond.

Baptism and the Lord’s Supper

We practice believer’s baptism and the Lord’s Supper as biblical ordinances that point to Christ’s saving work and the believer’s life of obedience.

Prayer and Christian Living

We believe every believer is called to prayer, holiness, service, and love for neighbor through the power of the Holy Spirit.
