The First
Baptist Church of Osgood was established January
20, 1902
American Baptist Churches of USA. American
Baptist Churches can be found in all 50 states
and Puerto Rico. About 1.5 million of us
worship and find inspiration in 5,800
congregations.
The fundamental unit of mission, we
practice autonomy. (that is each church governs
itself)
We worship the God of the Bible. HE is known to
us in the trinity of three persons, God the
Father, Jesus the incarnate Son, and the
Holy Spirit.
The divinity inspired word of God, the final
written authority and is trustworthy for faith
and practice.
The central message of the Bible, the Good News
of the atoning death and resurrection of Christ
Jesus, knowing that salvation and eternal life
are granted in grace through faith to all who
trust Christ Jesus as Lord and savior.
American Baptist Congregations are called by God
through Christ Jesus to be the communities of
faith - empowered by the Holy Spirit to live as
witnesses and agents of God's Love and justice
in the church and in the world; vital in
worship; dynamic in proclamation; effective in
teaching; loving in fellowship; faithful in
stewardship; and in compassionate service.
We partake in three ordinances, which exemplify
obedience to our Lord's commands:
Believers, Baptism, and the Lord's Supper.
