The IBFNA began out of a call for Revival within the GARBC.  A group of pastor and laymen within the GARBC formed a group called "Regular Baptists for Revival".  The charter of this group of men was to bring revival to the GARBC.  The following were the goals agreed upon by this group:

1. To reaffirm in our minds and hearts the original purpose of the G.A.R.B.C. as stated in its Constitution.
2. To seek the Lord's direction for unity and growth in the Regular Baptist Movement.
3. To articulate our Regular Baptist heritage.
4. To stress the Biblical Doctrine of Separation including "secondary separation."
5. To encourage and challenge our pastors and people to press on for the glory of God, for the purity of the church, and for more effective ministries of soul winning and church planting.
6. To propose projects which will strengthen our Regular Baptist Movement.

The Documents found on the right are the publications sent to all of the GARB Churches from the Regular Baptists for Revival group during this period of calling for Revival within the GARBC.
