About Our Pastor
Terrence M. Curtis
Terrence M. Curtis is the dynamic pastor, teacher and visionary of the Calvary Baptist Church, a church he founded in January 1997.
Over half of Terrence's life has been devoted to the ministry of Jesus Christ, which he believes is no greater or higher calling. At the age of 14 he began preaching and was selected to pastor his first church, the Friendship Baptist Church of Thomaston, GA at only 17 years old. Being led of the Spirit he accepted the call of pastor of the Neriah Baptist Church of East Point, GA in 1990, where he fruitfully and faithfully served for six years. It was then that Terrence sensed the Lord leading him to start a new church. Being obedient to the Spirit, in January 1997, Terrence, along with 84 former members of Neriah began the Calvary Baptist Church with services being held in the auditorium of an old school.
Terrence received his formal education from the Beulah Heights Bible College and Luther Rice Seminary.
He and his lovely wife, Shelia, to whom he has been married to for over 20 years have three wonderful children, Nicholas, Shekira and Terrence Andrew.
What We Believe
The Scriptures
We believe that both the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired by God and are inerrant in the original writings. Through the providence of God, the Scriptures have been preserved and are the supreme and final and adequate authority in faith and life. (Psalm 19:7; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21)
God
We believe that there is only one true and living God existing in three Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - each a distinct Person, but all of the one essence and all having the same nature, perfections, and attributes, and each is worthy of precisely the same worship, confidence, and obedience. (Genesis 1:26; Jeremiah 10:10; Matthew 3:16 - 17; 28:19)
Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, begotten of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, that he shed His blood on Calvary as a vicarious substitute, was buried, rose again bodily, and ascended to the Father according to the Scriptures. (Isaiah 7;14; Matthew 1:18 - 25; 1 Corinthians 15:3; Hebrews 4:15)
Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Trinity, very God, co-existent with the Father and the Son. The Holy Spirit is the chief agent in the regeneration, the chief convictor of sin, and the chief comforter of the believer. Simultaneous with regeneration, the Holy Spirit baptizes the believer into the body of Christ. (Matthew 2:19; John 16:7 - 11; Acts 5:3 -4; Romans 8:9; 1 Corinthians 12:12 - 14)
Man
We believe that man is the direct creation of God - body, soul, and spirit - and is not in any sense the result of evolution but is made in the image of God. Adam the first man, sinned by disobedience. This act resulted in the fall of mankind and incurred both physical and spiritual death for all. (Genesis 1:26 - 27; Romans 3:10, 23; 5:12)
Salvation
We believe that all who, in faith, receives the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior are born again by the Holy Spirit and thus become children of God. Salvation involves redemption, regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification. (John 1:12; 17:17; Romans 8:29 - 30; Ephesians 2:8 - 9; 4:30; Titus 3:5)
