Statement of Final Authority

Eatonville Baptist Church

Statement of Final Authority


Final Authority for Matters of Belief and Conduct

The statement of faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of Eatonville Baptist Church’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, our Elder Board is Eatonville Baptist Church’s final interpretive authority on the Bible’s application.

By signing below, the church community member acknowledges an understanding that this church only hires staff members and accepts volunteers who agree to abide by its Code of Conduct which is rooted in its sincerely held religious beliefs and which this ministry believes reflects a relationship representative of a walk with Christ.

In addition, by signing below, the church community member acknowledges he/she has read, understood, and agree to abide by this Christian Code of Conduct and that this church reserves the right to discipline said community member (up to and including termination from the community) for any action(s) in violation of this Code of Conduct.
