Baptists Together declaration

Everyone at the Baptist Assembly 2016 was invited to participate in the following declaration, based on our vision and culture

As Baptists Together,
we commit ourselves to being a movement led by the Spirit of God:
 
We will seek God’s will and purpose;
 
Celebrating diversity,
    We will value trust and respect one another in Christ;
 
Being serious about discipleship,
    We will embrace adventure
    And risk-taking faith in our faithful God;
 
Following the Servant King,
    We will be generous of spirit,
    Encouraging and inspiring one another,
    To be all that God created us to be;
 
Seeking God’s Kingdom,
    We will hunger and thirst after his righteousness,
    Confronting evil and praying for the grace
    To live the life of God’s coming Kingdom now.
 
These are our hopes and these are our clear intentions
Come, Lord Jesus
Come save your people
That we might live and proclaim
Good news for all your world. Amen
