Welcome to our website. We are so happy that you have taken the time to visit our presence on the world wide web. Truth Baptist Church is an independent, fundamental, Bible believing Baptist Church.
By independent we mean there is no governing hiearchy (Convention,Association) that controls the church. By fundamental we mean we hold to certain truths that are fundamental to the Christian faith and cannot be compromised. These fundamentals would include divine creation, the verbal inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture, the virgin birth of Christ, His diety, substitutionary atonement, bodily resurrection, his physical return and the existence of a literal heaven and hell. By Baptist we mean that we hold to the Baptist distinctives.
Please feel free to look around and discover more about Truth Baptist Church. On these pages you will find detailed information about our church and our ministries to both the members of this church and to the local community. On these pages, you will be able to find a calendar of church events, answers to important questions and a detailed statement of our beliefs, based entirely on God's Word.

Pastor Carter began ministering to a small group of family members and friends during a monthly Bible study. Two years later, in January 2000, Pastor Carter announced the desire and Godly leading to plant a church in Jacksonville, Florida. On April 16, 2000, Truth Baptist Church had its first service in a small single unit storefront building, which God had provided. There was 34 people in attendance for that service and eleven adult members joined during the first service and God has continued to add to the fold. Truth Baptist soon out grew the location of 6035 Ft. Caroline Drive and God blessed us with our current location of 1221 Shackleton Rd. While this building was previously a doctors office and would need to be renovated for use as a church, we knew that God wanted us to bring the lost to this building to meet the Great Physician. In September 2002, we moved to our new building and our renovations were not completed until December 2009 and we celebrated our Building Dedication Service in January 2010. It is our desire to grow to include a Bible Institute and Christian School. |
