    Statement of Faith

    While being a part of denominations that do not emphasize creeds or formulas, Canadian Baptist Ministries nevertheless affirms wholeheartedly the revelation of God given in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments and confesses the faith set forth in those scriptures:

    • We here explicitly assert the doctrines which we regard as crucial to the understanding and proclamation of the Gospel and to practical Christian living.
    • The sovereignty, love, and grace of God, the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit in creation, providence, revelation,  redemption and final judgment.
    • The divine inspiration of the Bible and its entire trustworthiness and supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
    • The value of each human being as created by God, and the
      universal sinfulness of humankind since the fall, which alienates all from God and subjects all to condemnation.
    • The full deity and humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God, whose substitutionary sacrifice is the sole ground of redemption from the guilt, penalty and power of sin.
    • The justification of the sinner by the grace of God through faith alone in Christ crucified and risen from the dead. The illuminating, regenerating, indwelling and sanctifying work of God, the Holy Spirit, in the believer.
    • The church as set forth in the New Testament and understood historically by the Baptist community.
    • The expectation of the personal, visible return of the Lord
      Jesus Christ, our participation in the resurrection, and the hope of eternal life.

    How we work

    Integral Mission

    At CBM, we love God and we love his mission to heal a broken world. Our love for God and his mission is rooted in the fact that he first loved us and rescued us in our brokenness. As a sign of our gratitude to him, we willingly and enthusiastically accept his invitation to join him in his mission.

    We are part of a global family of followers of Jesus Christ, we seek to bring hope in a world of poverty, broken relationships, environmental destruction, lost hope and every type of oppression. Our call is to radical discipleship as followers of Christ the King. The way we do this is through Integral Mission.​

    Integral mission weaves together our words and deeds.  Through our words, we share God’s love and redemption offered in Jesus Christ, and invite people to respond by accepting the gift of a new life.  Through our deeds, we contribute to the healing and positive transformation of people and communities through physical, spiritual, economic, psychological and social programs.

    We believe that both parts are essential, neither takes priority over the other. Neither should be done independently of the other. Each part is essential and necessary for the completeness of God’s desire for his creation.

    Who We Work With

    Partners

    One of the questions we love to hear from our donors is, “Why don’t we ever see ‘CBM’ and its logo on the side of vehicles overseas or on the door of an office?” The answer is extremely simple: We work with, for and through our global partners. Our goal isn’t to strengthen our ‘brand’ overseas or toot our own horn. Wherever we work in the world, our strategy is consistently this – build up local churches capacity to help heal a broken world through word and deed (see the section above ‘How We work’).

    Partnership is intentional collaboration, where the co-participants share a common journey towards the accomplishment of a pre-determined purpose. Whether we are addressing spiritual, social, economic or environmental challenges, our partnerships are formed to undertake either a specific project (which is usually location-based and time-specific) or to develop a broad array of ongoing programs or activities.

    Together with our partners overseas, we work together in a spirit of mutuality to determine the scope, style and scale of the activities at an early stage, and agree on how to implement the proposal.​ We often help our partners when they need assistance in building their local capacity for effective holistic ministry and sustainable programs. We work together to assess and improve one another’s ministries and are always ready to learn and receive, while we also seek to share in the gifts and resources we have. And when the task is completed and the time has come, we celebrate what we managed to do together.
