“And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead,
so that in everything he might have the supremacy.” (Col. 1:18 NIV)
Welcome to Northmoreland Baptist Church!
NBC has been sharing the good news of Jesus Christ since 1850. We are a Bible-based, Christ-centered, people-focused church. We exist for the glory of God, to make disciples, and to serve Jesus Christ through the church.
By glory, we mean the exaltation of God. All that we do is for the glory of God (1 Cor 10:31), publicly and privately, corporately and individually. Everything that we do and say is for the “sake of His name.”
By discipleship, we mean making disciples (Mt 28:18). It includes evangelism and teaching. Discipleship is a personal and persistent effort to walk worthy of the Lord and to make disciples. Northmoreland Baptist Church exists to honor God by making & maturing disciples who together are becoming like the Lord Jesus Christ.
By through the Church (Mt 16:18), we mean through the spiritual body of which Christ is the head (Eph 1:22; Col 1:16; Eph 4:15; 5:23). Through the local church, believers who are baptized on an acceptable confession of faith (Acts 10:47-48 ), partner for worship, edification, evangelism, and fellowship (Acts 2:42; Eph. 4:7, 11-16; Heb 10:25).
Therefore, our Vision is to glorify God through Jesus Christ, to display His grace and wisdom to the world through God’s program for today, the church (Ephesians 2:7, 3:6, 10).
