==Doctrine==
The SBC generally holds a conservative worldview, though it is somewhat divided between the Calvinist and Armenian camps.
Like other Baptist bodies the SBC does not have a formal confession of faith or creed. It publishes a doctrinal statement, the [[Baptist Faith and Message]] (BF&M), which summarizes its key beliefs. The SBC, being congregational in practice, cannot bind the BF&M on any supporting church; however, adherence to the BF&M is required for missionaries and faculty at SBC-supported universities. Most congregations, however, generally adopt the BF&M (in whole or in part) as their doctrinal statement.
