Everyone in mission Everyone living and growing in Christ
Church Covenant
Tahmoor Baptist Church has a covenant statement (a promise to one another) that was approved by both leadership and congregation.
Since we have committed ourselves to Jesus Christ and have experienced the acceptance, forgiveness and redemption of God our Father, we covenant together as members of this church that with God’s help through the guiding presence of his Holy Spirit we will:
walk together in brotherly/sisterly love
show loving care for one another and encourage, counsel and admonish one another
assemble faithfully for worship and fellowship and pray earnestly for others as well as for ourselves
endeavour to bring up those under our care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord
seek, by Christian example and personal effort, to win others to Christ and to encourage their growth toward Christian maturity
share one another’s joys and endeavour and bear one another’s burdens and sorrows
oppose all conduct which compromises our Christian faith, upholding high standards of Christian morality
prove the reality of our conversion by living godly, fruitful lives
maintain a faithful ministry of worship, witness, education, fellowship and service
be faithful stewards of our resources and abilities in sharing the gospel with people of all nations
regularly celebrate this covenant together within our fellowship gatherings.
As a result of this covenant relationship, we will seek earnestly to live to the glory of God who brought us out of the darkness into his marvellous light.
