Antioch Southern Baptist Church is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. Baptists are a people who profess a living faith. Their faith is rooted in Jesus Christ who is "the same yesterday, and today, and forever." The sole authority for faith and practice is the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament.
As Baptists, we observe two ordinances: water baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper (also known as Communion). These ordinances are public expressions of our obedience to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Water baptism, while not essential to salvation, is a symbolic expression of our death and burial to the old sin life and a rebirth to a new life in Christ. The Lord's Supper, reminiscent of Jesus' last supper with his disciples, is a reminder of Christ's broken body on the cross and the blood he shed for the remission of our sins.
Antioch Southern Baptist Church believes:
- the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the integrity of the Holy Scriptures has been divinely protected through the ages,
- in the Trinity - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit,
- in the deity of Jesus Christ and his virgin birth,
- in the forgiveness of sin through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ,
- that salvation is by grace through faith, and,
- that Jesus Christ will return.
Antioch's history in Harrisonville has allowed it to serve the people of the city for the last twenty years. God has been good to Antioch and we say "to God be the Glory!" We have been blessed with the finest staff in the country and excellent facilities to expand the reach of our ministry.
If you do not have a church home, we invite you to prayerfully consider becoming a member of our church family.
