Statement of Faith

In a day when the trend is to depart from the fundamentals of the faith, New Hope Bible College lifts up a voice. Following is a list of doctrinal truths which New Hope endorses.


    1. We believe the Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments to be the inerrant, infallible, verbally inspired Word of God. (II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20-21)

    
    2. We believe in the tri-unity of God: that the eternal God manifests Himself in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, and that these three are one God, separate in personality and work. (Genesis 1:1; John 4:24, 10:24; Deuteronomy 6:24)

    

    3. We believe in the incarnation and virgin birth of Jesus, in His sinless life and in the sufficiency and substitution of His death on the cross for the sins of the whole world; in His bodily resurrection from the dead and His ascension to heaven; and His pre-tribulation bodily return in the air to catch away His bride, the church, and His return to earth to set up His millennial kingdom after the tribulation period. (John 1:1,14,18; Matthew 1:21-23; I John 5:20; Titus 2:13; I Thessalonians 1:10, 4:13-18,5:4-10; Romans 3:10; Matthew 24:21, 29,30; 25:31)

    

    4. We believe in the creation of the universe and all living things by a direct act of God, apart from any so-called evolutionary process. (Genesis Chapters 1 - 2)

    

    5. We believe in the fall of man and the subsequent depravity and sinfulness of the whole human race, making man incapable of personal salvation and good works before God, thus needing a Saviour. (Romans 3:23,5:12; Ephesians 2:1)

    

    6. We believe that men are justified by faith alone and that they are accounted righteous before God only through the merit of the Lord Jesus Christ. Salvation is by grace through faith, minus nothing and plus nothing, and this salvation is everlasting life. (I Peter 3:18; I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 4:12; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 1:16)

    

    7. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the believers to everlasting life and fellowship with God, and of all non-believers to everlasting torment and punishment in Hell fire. We believe in the Judgement Seat of Christ for all believers and the Great White Throne Judgement for unbelievers. (Revelation 20:1-6; Matthew 25:46)

    

    8. We believe that God's plan for this present age involves the evangelization of the world through the witness of every believer in Jesus Christ and the establishing of local churches as a means of accomplishing His purpose. (Matthew 28:19-20; Hebrews 10:25; Acts 1:8 Mark 16:15)

    

    9. We believe in loyalty to country and government and the separation of church and state. (Romans 13: 1-7; Matthew 22:21)

    

    10. We believe that each individual in Christ should lead a life that is separated from the world unto Jesus Christ. (I John 2:15-16; I Peter 1:15-16)
