The purpose of Northview Baptist shall be to glorify The Lord Jesus Christ, and thus, God the Father through obedience to the Word of God and the worship of the triune Godhead. To that end the Church will execute the Great Commission in the preaching of the gospel for the purpose of making disciples, baptizing the same in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe all things The Lord has commanded by proclaiming the whole counsel of God. By these means the Church will endeavor to be used instrumentally to perpetuate the faith once delivered to the saints. God, who is rich in mercy, has brought us together for our mutual benefit. Being born-again, Bible-believing Baptists, we set forth this Confession of Faith and Constitution to promote the more certain preservation and security of the principles of our faith. We intend that this body be governed in an orderly manner consistent with the teachings of the New Testament, preserving the liberties inherent in each individual member of this Church and the freedom of action of this body.
