Our Beliefs

Moraine Heights Baptist Church is an Independent Baptist Church. This means that our church is self-governing. We are not a member of any convention, fellowship, or association, which could control our direction or beliefs. We are unaffiliated with any groups or camps. We are free to fellowship or associate with any church who is of like faith and practice.

Moraine Heights Church is a Fundamental Baptist Church. The term fundamental refers to an adherence to the great cardinal doctrines of the Scriptures as stated in our beliefs. We believe the fundamentals of the Bible.

We are a Baptist Church in that we hold to the distinctives of historic Baptists. The term Baptist identifies these distinctives from the following acrostic:

Bible authority - God's Word is inerrant and authoritative

Autonomy of the local new testament church

Priesthood of the believer (access to God)

Two Biblical offices: Pastor & Deacon

Individual soul liberty (responsibility)

Separation of Church and State (no state mandated church)

Two ordinances: Baptism by immersion & Lord's Supper

...for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. - II Tim 1:12
