Hopewell Independent Baptist Church is a local autonomous, Bible-believing congregation preaching, teaching and practicing
the Biblical principles of a New Testament church as taught in the Scriptures. The Bible We
believe that the king James Bible is the Holy Scriptures; that it is the perfect, pure, preserved word of God; that it is
absolute truth; that it is to be rightly divided; and that it is to be the sole final authority. Jesus
Christ We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ; his Virgin Birth; his Vicarious death for sinners;
his literal, bodily resurrection; and his literal, bodily return to this earth to reign for one thousand years. Salvation We
believe that salvation is by grace, through faith alone, in the blood of Jesus Christ. We believe that religion, church
membership, water baptism, or any other good works have no saving power at all. Eternal Security We
believe that the born again believer is a son of God and a part of the body of Jesus Christ; therefore that the child is eternally
saved and secure. We believe in personal evangelism and that Christians are to live godly lives that are pleasing
to the Lord.
