What We
Believe
To HPBC Home Page
Church Covenant
...We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God (John 3:16), and that He came to the world to seek and to save the lost (Matthew 18:11, Luke 19:10). He had a miracle birth, born of a virgin (Luke 1:31-34), lived a sinless life (1 Peter 2:22), died on the cross of Calvary for our sins (1 Peter 2:24), was resurrected by the power of God after three days (1 Corinthians 15:4), and is now seated at the right hand of God (Hebrews 10:10-12). We believe He will come again (Acts 1:11).
... We believe the Bible to be the Holy Scripture without error and totally inspired by the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16).
...We believe a person is saved by grace through faith and not of works (Ephesians 2:8-9).
...We believe the local church is made of baptized believers in Christ, and that baptism is of immersion into water and is in obedience to the Lord.
...We believe that a true believer is eternally secure, that he cannot lose His salvation (1 John 5:13, John 10:27-30). Sin will interrupt the joy of our fellowship with God, and bring loving discipline of our Heavenly Father.
...We believe that the goal of every Christian is to grow in spiritual
maturity (1 Corinthians 2:12).
