Wellspring Bible Fellowship is affiliated with Conservative Baptist Northwest. The association of churches known as CB Northwest, as a part of the body of Christ, acknowledges our God-ordained covenantal relationships as a fellowship of Conservative Baptist churches. Holding in common our doctrine, polity, and philosophy of ministry, we agree to a relationship expressed in dependence upon, responsibility for, and accountability to each other by God’s grace. CB Northwest also seeks covenant community with other regional CB communities throughout North America and around the world.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT:

We live to worship and glorify God by being fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ who are producing other fully devoted followers of Him in our homes, church, community, and world.

We accomplish this through teaching God’s Word, prayer, ministry to one another, and sharing Jesus Christ with those who need Him as their Savior. (I Cor. 6:19-20; 10:31; Matt. 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 2:42-47



OUR CORE VALUES:

PEOPLE: All people are important to God, and therefore, all people are important to us. (Gen. 1:26-28; John 3:16-18; Luke 19:10; Matt. 28:18-20; II Cor. 5:14-20)

THE BIBLE: The Bible is God’s Word. It is eternal truth, authoritative, relevant for life, and therefore, is to be accurately taught and faithfully obeyed. (II Tim. 3-16: II Pet. 1-20-21; Psalm 119:89, 160, 106, 97-104; Matt. 4:4; Heb. 4:12; II Tim. 4:1-2; Psalm 1:1-6; James 1:22-25)

JESUS CHRIST: Jesus Christ is God the Son and is the answer to every man’s ultimate need for a Savior and an eternal relationship with God. (John 1:1-2, 14; Heb. 1:1-3; Col. 1:15; John 14-6; Acts 4:12; I John 5:11-13)

PRAYER: Prayer is essential for our life and ministry together. (Matt. 6:9-13; Luke 18:1-5; Col. 4:2; I Thess. 5:17; Phil. 1:9-11; 4:6-7; Eph. 6:18)

FAITH: God declares us righteous in His sight through our faith in Jesus Christ, and we are to live by this faith as well. (Heb. 11:1-6; Rom. 3:21-28; 4:25; 5:1-2; Gal. 2:20; 3:24-26; Heb. 12:1-3; James 2:14-26; I Pet. 1:3-9)

GRACE: We are saved and kept by God’s grace which is His undeserved, unmerited favor given to us. (II Cor. 8:9; Eph. 1:3-7, 2:1-9; II Tim. 2:1; Rom 12:3; I Pet. 4:10; Eph. 4:29; Col. 4:6; Heb 4:14-16)

SALVATION: Salvation from our sins is God’s free gift to all who believe in Jesus as their Savior and Lord; and these are sealed and secure in Him for all eternity. (Rom. 3:21-28; 10:9-13; Eph. 2:8-9; John 10:11, 27-30; Eph. 1:3-14; Rom. 8:28-29; II Thess. 2:13-14: I Pet. 1:1-5)

LOVING RELATIONSHIPS: Loving relationships are foundational for our life together and our ministries to one another and our community. (John 13:34-35; I John 4:9-11; I Thess. 4:9-10; Gal. 5:13; Eph. 4:1-3, 11-16; Col. 3:12-17; II Cor. 5:14-20)

DEVOTION TO JESUS: Full devotion to Jesus Christ and His mission is the biblical norm and the appropriate response for each of us who believe in Him as our Savior. (Luke 9:23-26; Matt. 28:18-20; Acts 1:8, 4:1-3; 13-22, 23-25; 5:29-323; I Thess. 1:1-10)

SPIRITUAL GIFTS: All believers in Jesus Christ as their Savior have spiritual gifts and are to use them to help each other mature as followers of Christ and bring glory to God. (Rom. 12:1-8; I Cor. 12:1-25; Eph. 4:11-16; I Peter 4:10-11)

MARRIAGE AND FAMILY: We hold marriage and family in highest regard and are committed to doing all we can to promote and maintain their biblical position as a vital witness to our church family and community. (Gen. 2:18-25; Matt. 19:3-9; I Cor. 7:10-16; Eph. 5:21-33; 6:1-4; Col. 3:18-21; Deut. 6:4-9; Prov. 5:1-23; Heb. 13:4; I Peter 3:1-7)
