Title supplied by cataloger. Free Will Baptist is a denomination of churches that share a common history, name, and an acceptance of the Arminian theology of free grace, free salvation, and free will, based on the idea of general atonement. Furthermore, it shares similar soteriological views (theology that deals with salvation) with General Baptists, Separate Baptists, and some United Baptists. But, the Free Will Baptist Doctrine is distinguished from the majority of Baptist groups in that Free will Baptists reject the popular Baptist view of "unconditional perseverance of the saints". Instead, Free Will Baptist Doctrine holds to the traditional Arminias position, based on the belief in a General Atonement. This marquee for Iglesia Bautista Libre/Free Will Baptist Church is nestled beside a small flowering rose bush on the right side of the church, of which only a small portion is visible. The marquee is written in Spanish and lists the order of service with days and times; another sign is partially visible posted on the wall, which gives the same information. Iglesia Bautista Libre/Free Will Baptist Church is located at 7235 Granger Avenue in the city of Bell Gardens. Photograph dated: July 2005.
