A Statement of Faith and A Declaration of Conscience *
The members of South
Side Baptist
Church affirm those principles
of biblical interpretation and theological commitments which are at the heart
of the identity and mission of this historic church.
We Affirm:
- The statements in the Baptist faith and
Message
- The priesthood of each believer before God by
which we have direct access to and responsibility before God as Creator,
Redeemer and Judge (1 Pet 2:9)
- The autonomy of the local church in all
matters pertaining to polity, discipline and decisions relating to
larger associations which are in all cases to be democratic in
organization and open to participation by all members.

"I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, 'Father, I
have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called
your son; treat me like one of your hired hands.'
So he set off and went to his father.
But while he was still far off, his father saw him and was filled with
compassion; he ran and put his arms around him and kissed him."
NRSV:
Luke 15: 18 - 20
