The Holy Bible is the inspired word of God and is the basis for any statement of faith.  The Church subscribes to the doctrinal statement of the "Baptist Faith and Message" as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1963.  Belmore also adopts the "Baptist Faith and Message of 2000."  We band ourselves together as a body of believers in Jesus Christ, personally committed to sharing the good news of salvation to lost mankind.  The ordinances of the church are Baptism and the Lord's Supper.
