Harmony Quarterly Conference
The Harmony Quarterly Meeting of the Free Will Baptist Churches, referred to as the Harmony Quarterly Conference, was established in ____. Since that time, the Harmony Conference has been made up of many churches dedicated to loving God, loving others, and providing support, communion, and ordination to pastors and deacons. We are currently looking for new churches to join the conference! If you are a pastor or church leader and would like to talk to us about joining, we'd love to hear from you!
Mission
The purpose of this organization is to forward the gospel, forward the teaching of God's word both at home and abroad, and to provide protection and assistance to all churches desiring to unite in this compact and comply to the original Free Will Baptist doctrine; and still exercise the right of independent or self-government.

Articles of Faith
THE BIBLE
The scriptures of the old and new testaments were given by inspiration of God, and are our infallible rule of faith and practice.
GOD
There is one living and true God, revealed in nature as the Creator, Preserver, and Righteous Governor of the Universe; and in the scriptures as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; yet as one God, infinitely wise and good, whom all intelligent creatures are to supremely love, adore, and obey.
CHRIST
Christ is God manifest in the flesh, who came to earth both fully man and fully God. The mediator between God and man, once crucified, He is now risen and glorified, and is our ever present Saviour and Lord.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
The scriptures assign to the Holy Spirit all the attributes of God.
THE GOVERNMENT OF GOD
God exercises a wise and benevolent providence over all beings and all things by maintaining the constitution and laws of nature. He also performs special acts, not otherwise provided for, as the highest welfare of men requires.
THE SINFULNESS OF MAN
Man was created innocent, but by disobedience, fell into a state of sin and condemnation. His posterity, therefore, inherit a fallen nature of such tendencies that all who came to the years of accountability, sin and become guilty before God.
THE WORK OF CHRIST
The Son of God by His incarnation, life, sufferings, death, and resurrection effected for all a redemption from sin that is full and free, and is the ground of salvation by faith.
THE TERMS OF SALVATION
The conditions of salvation are:
-
Repentance of sincere sorrow for sin and hearty renunciation of it.
-
Faith, or the unreserved committal of one's self to Christ as Savior and Lord with purpose to love and obey Him in all things. In the exercise of saving faith, the soul is renewed by the HOly Spirit, freed from the dominion of sin, and becomes a child of God.
-
Continuance in faith and obedience until death.
ELECTION
God determined from the beginning to save all who should comply with the conditions of salvation. Hence by faith in Christ men become His elect.
FREEDOM OF THE WILL
The human will is free and self-controlled, having the power to yield to the influence of the truth and the Spirit, or to resist them and perish.
SALVATION FREE
God desires the salvation of all, the gospel invites all, the Holy Spirit strives with all, and whosoever will may come and take of the water of life freely.
Perserverance
God determined from the beginning to save all who should comply with the conditions of salvation. Hence by faith in Christ men become His elect.
