We are a new church gathering regularly in Northern Nairobi off Kiambu Road. We covenanted together in October of 2023. North Point Baptist Church is an independent, conservative, evangelical Church in Nairobi. We have been commissioned out of Emmanuel Baptist Church (EBC) in Lavington Nairobi. (www.ebcnairobi.org)
We exist to Glorify God by preaching the gospel and making disciples of Christ. We hope to accomplish that by being:
A word-Centered Church
God’s word creates God’s people and equips them to live as God intends them to. We thus are committed to the regular exposition of God’s word as the engine of the church.
A Baptist Church
Those who turn from sin and trust in Christ are to be welcomed into membership through baptism by full immersion as a sign of their union with Christ in his death, burial and resurrection.
A Gospel Preaching Church
The message of the gospel is the power of God unto salvation to all who believe. Therefore, we will endeavor to proclaim this gospel and apply it to all of life.
An Elder-Led Church
We believe that The Bible teaches that local churches HIT are to be led by a multiplicity of Biblically qualified men (1 Tim 3.1-7, Titus 1.5, etc). Elder is synonymous with pastor and bishop, with their work being to equip the saints for the work of ministry (Eph 4.12)
A Missional Church
The goal of the church is to preach the gospel and make disciples. We will work towards seeing that advance both locally and beyond our borders among the unreached.
A Congregational Church
“We believe that the Bible teaches that the final authority in a church lies with the congregation. It is the congregation that acts to protect and display its gospel witness by a) receiving, dismissing, and disciplining its members, b) calling elders and deacons, and; c) voting on significant matters which affect the integrity and viability of the church’s gospel ministry.
