The statements of Faith herein constitute the consensus of opinion of the Baptist body known as the Nigerian Baptist Convention and are meant for general instruction and guidance of her people. They are not meant to add anything to the conditions of salvation as revealed in the New Testament, i.e. repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord. 
This Statements of Faith and Practice is not a creed to be adopted. Baptists are a people who profess a living faith rooted in Jesus Christ. Therefore, the only authority for faith and practice among Baptists is Jesus Christ, whose life and will is revealed in Holy Scriptures.
A living faith exercises a growing understanding of truth and must be continually interpreted and related to the needs of each generation. No Statement of Faith can be regarded as complete, without error, or as an official document of authority demanding compulsory adherence.
