General Association of Regular Baptist
Doctrinal differences forced a number of churches to withdraw from The American Baptist Convention in 1932 and they formed the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches. The term "regular" refers to the conservative position regarding the truth of Scripture in contrast to the "irregular" position of theological liberalism. Scriptural truth is the backbone of the GARBC and they hold beliefs similar to other Baptist churches such as baptism by immersion, the Lord's supper, the priesthood of believers, autonomy of churches and individual liberty to choose religious beliefs.
