Hope Baptist Church agrees with The Abstract of Principles (1858) which is a summary of the Second London Baptist Confession (1689).
Briefly stated, we are committed to teaching and preaching:
- The inspiration, infallibility, and sufficiency of Scripture
- The triune nature of God and the deity of Jesus Christ
- God’s sovereign grace in election
- The total depravity of man
- The substitutionary, atoning death of Jesus Christ
- The new birth as the sole work of the Holy Spirit
- The necessity of repentance and faith in conversion
- Justification by imputed righteousness
- Sanctification and the perseverance of the saints
- Believer’s baptism and the Lord’s Supper as church ordinances
