Brighton Chapel

What do we believe?

  • The complete and divine inspiration of the Holy Bible in the original languages; their inerrancy and infallibility; and their supreme and final authority in faith and life.


  • The Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.


  • God created the heavens and the earth by His Word in six twenty-four hour days.


  • The essential, absolute, eternal deity, and the real, but sinless humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ.


  • Jesus’ birth by the Virgin Mary.


  • Jesus’ substitutionary and atoning death on Calvary’s cross by the shedding of His precious blood.


  • Jesus’ resurrection from among the dead in the same body in which He was crucified, and the future return of Jesus Christ to this earth.


  • The total depravity of man through the Fall.


  • Salvation, the effect of regeneration by the Holy Spirit and the Word, not by works but by grace through faith.


  • Everlasting joy of the saved in Heaven, and everlasting suffering of the lost in Hell.


  • The ordinance of Communion.


  • The ordinance of Baptism. Baptism is not a means to salvation, but a response of salvation through obedience to God’s Word.


  • The unity in Christ of all redeemed by His precious blood.


  • The necessity of the local church.


  • The necessity of maintaining, according to God’s Word, the purity of the church doctrine and life.
