The Doctrines Baptists Believe

Description

Introduces people to Baptist views on the Bible, God, Jesus Christ, salvation, the church, and last things. This volume focuses on the major doctrines of the Christian faith, including the authority of the Bible, the Trinity, the centrality of Christ, the way of salvation, the church, and God’s purpose for the future. Special emphasis is given to the unique beliefs of Baptists. Roy T. Edgemon, a leader of Southern Baptists’ discipleship training program for 22 years, served as director of the discipleship and family group of Life Way Christian Resources, until April 1, 2000. Edgemon joined the staff of the Sunday School Board (the name was changed to Life Way in 1998) on Jan. 1, 1978, as director of the church training department. The department was enlarged and re-named discipleship and family development division in 1992. In 1998, the name was changed to discipleship and family group. Gene Mims, president of the Life Way Church Resources Division, paid tribute to Edgemon as “a man of great integrity and a deep walk with the Lord. His vision and insight have been crucial in what we’ve been able to do in the last eight years, which have been his years of greatest contribution.”
