Calvary Baptist Church   Newark, Delaware Diverse in Culture, United in Christ

What we Believe

The New Testament is our guide for Christian living.

Each person may come to God directly through Jesus Christ, our bridge.

Each person has the right to worship God as his or her own spirit leads him or her.

Only those who accept Jesus as their Savior and Lord are to be baptized and baptism follows the example of Jesus when we immerse.

Each church is a community of baptized believers in Christ.  Each church has a right to decide its own business and ways of doing things, with each member having a share in planning its work.

There are 2 practices ordered by Jesus in the New Testament:  baptism & communion.

The church and governments should be separate, so we have religious freedom.
