About Maranatha Baptist Church

We believe in the inspiration of the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments.  We teach and preach the truths as the Baptists through the years have taught with special emphasis upon New Testament Doctrine, fellowship, discipline, and organization; holy living for every believer; the exposure of the apostasy which is ever engulfing and polluting Christianity; and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. 

We are an Independent Baptist church.

We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the verbally and plenarily inspired Word of God.  The Scriptures are inerrant, infallible and God-breathed and, therefore, are the final authority for faith and life.  The sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are the complete and divine revelation of God to Man. The 1611 King James Version of the Bible shall be the official and only translation used by the church.

We believe that God has ordained and created all authority consisting of three basic institutions:  1) the home, 2) the church, and 3) the state.  Every person is subject to these authorities, but all (including the authorities themselves) are answerable to God and governed by His Word.
