Thanks for the answer. That’s about what I’d expect—a profession of faith. Are there Baptist distinctives in this profession? Or is it generic stuff like I believe in Jesus Christ, the only Son of God?

Do Catholics require an oath of loyalty, not that I ever heard, but I was born Catholic so I didn’t go through that process formally. You have to make a profession of faith though.

Strictly based on the Scriptural model, but the individual professes Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior in his own words. There is some variation from church to church because while Baptist churches may associate with one another they are independent. Thus you will find some that don't require Believers Baptism, but most will.

I ask because so much is made of trusting your church in all things.
