The H.E.A.R.T. Ministry's Doctrine

Broadview Heights Baptist Church (BHBC) is the independent Baptist church we serve through and whose authority we are under. Pastor Joel Royalty has an ongoing vision of preaching the gospel, the whole counsel of God and teaching and training individuals and families to walk with God.

We believe in the virgin birth, the blood atonement, and the death, burial and literal physical resurrection of Jesus Christ. We believe the King James Bible is the incorruptible Word of God in the English language (Psalms 12:6-7, I Peter 1:23 -25). We believe in the blessed hope of the premillenial return of Jesus Christ for His saints in the air (I Corinthians 5:1-4, I Thessalonians 4:14-18, Titus 2:13, I John 3:3, Revelation 4:1).

We believe the local church is commanded to carry out the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) and that we have an example to follow in the first century church. "And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ" (Acts 5:42). We believe every born again believer should take seriously their responsibility to be a missionary in their own Jerusalem.
