Membership in the FBMA is not automatic. Our goal for the FBMA is to maintain high standards for the execution of marketing practices and principles among our membership. In addition, we have a Statement of Faith which will limit our membership to those who fully subscribe to the foundation of faith - the very reason there is a need for a Faith Based Marketing Association.

STATEMENT OF FAITH
  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

  • We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

  • We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

  • We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential and that this salvation is received through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and not as a result of good works.

  • We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
