At Hurst Green Evangelical Church, our faith is rooted in the timeless truths of God’s Word. We believe:
- The Bible is God’s inspired, infallible, and supreme authority, guiding us in all matters of faith and life.
- There is one true God who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- God, in His love, grace, and sovereignty, is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. He rules over the world, redeems those who trust in Him, and will one day bring justice to all.
- Humanity was created in God’s image but, through sin, became separated from Him. Because of this, we are unable to please God on our own.
- Jesus Christ, God’s eternal Son, came to earth as a man—fully divine and fully human. He was born of a virgin and lived a sinless life.
- Jesus’ ministry carried the full authority of God, revealing God’s truth, love, and power.
- On the cross, Jesus died in our place, paying the price for our sin. Through His sacrifice, He conquered evil and made a way for us to be reconciled with God.
- Jesus rose from the dead, ascended to the Father, and now reigns as the only Savior of the world, interceding on our behalf.
- Salvation is a gift of God’s grace—we cannot earn it through good works or religious acts. It is freely given to those who put their trust in Jesus Christ.
- Baptism is a public declaration of God’s work in a believer’s life. We practice baptism by immersion as an expression of faith.
- The Holy Spirit lives within us, leading us to repentance, strengthening our faith, and empowering us to live as disciples of Jesus.
- The Church is the body of Christ, both locally and globally. As believers, we gather to worship, encourage one another, and share the love of Christ with the world.
- Jesus Christ will personally and visibly return. He will judge all people, and those who trust in Him will experience eternal life with God.
This statement reflects the core of what we believe and how we seek to live as followers of Jesus. If you have any questions or would like to learn more, we would love to connect with you!
