Elders Position Paper – On Biblical Sexuality

As elders of Goodwood Baptist Church, we teach and believe in the sanctity of marriage. We believe that the only form of marriage sanctioned by God is between a natural man and a natural woman. We also believe that the only sexual relations permitted by God are heterosexual relations between a natural man and a natural woman who are lawfully married to each other. In this regard, we accept and confess with many like-mined protestants The Nashville Statement for Biblical Sexuality – which can be read below.
