The Fall of Man
We believe that Adam and Eve, the precursors of the entire human race, were created in the image of God; however, they disobeyed God and became sinners. Through Adam, all people inherited sins nature and consequences, and all are in need of a Redeemer (Genesis 1:27; Romans 5:12, 19).
The Plan of Redemption
We believe that Christ died for all of us while we were still sinners; He took the punishment for our sin. With His own blood, He purchased salvation and redemption for all who believe in Him (John 3:16; Isaiah 53:5; Titus 2:14).
Salvation Through Grace
We believe that salvation is totally an act of Gods grace that is accessed through faith in Jesus Christ. No person can be good enough to earn salvation, and being good does not contribute to receiving Gods love and favor (Ephesians 2:8, 13).
Repentance and Acceptance
We believe that, when people repent for their sins and accept Christ, they are justified through Jesus sacrificial death on the cross. To repent means to be sorry for sins, but it also means to turn away from a sinful lifestyle. Accepting Christ means believing in Him as the only Savior. To be justified means being declared not guilty in regard to sin (Romans 10:9-10; 1 John 1:9).
The New Birth
We believe that the change that takes place in people when they are born again is very real. They receive righteousness through Jesus Christ, and they are empowered by the Holy Spirit; therefore, they should have new desires, interests and pursuits (John 3:3; 2 Corinthians 5:17).
Daily Christian Life
We believe that people who have been born again grow in sanctificationwhich means that they separate themselves from the value system of the world and embrace and live according to the values of the kingdom that Jesus proclaimed. As they do so, they increase in holiness, faith, power, prayer, love and service (2 Corinthians 7:1).
Evangelism
We believe that evangelizing and making disciples is the primary business of the church; every hindrance to worldwide evangelism should be removed (James 5:20; Mark 16:15).
Tithing and Offerings
We believe that tithing (giving 10 percent of earnings) and offerings (amounts determined by the individuals) are Gods instruments to carry on His ministry, spread the gospel, and release personal blessing (Malachi 3:10; 1 Corinthians
16: 1, 2).
Moderation
We believe that Christians should avoid excess and that their moderation should be obvious to others. Their commitment to Christ should be deep and sincere, but they should not indulge in or lead other people into extremes of fanaticism. Christians should be well thought of, balanced, humble and self-sacrificing, reflecting Christs grace and character in all
areas of their lives (Colossians 3:12, 13; Philippians 4:5).
Church Relationship
We believe that it is essential for all believers to join with and become part of a congregation of other believers. It is important to worship together, observe the ordinances of the church, encourage and support one another, and work together to advance the Lords kingdom (Hebrews 10:24, 25).
The Holy Scriptures
We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God; it is absolutely true, enduring, and unchangeable (2 Timothy 3:16, 17. Matthew 24:35).
The Eternal Godhead
We believe in the Trinity of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. The three parts of the Trinity are coexistent and coeternal, which means that they always have existed and always will exist together; they are coequal in divine perfection, which means that no person of the Trinity is more powerful or more perfect than any other person in the Trinity (1 John 5:7).
Water Baptism, Baptism with the Holy Spirit and the Lord's Supper
We believe that people who have been born again should be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus Himself
was baptized and instructed His followers to be baptized. We believe in observing the Lords supper, or communion, just as Jesus instructed. This means that born-again believers take the broken bread and the fruit of the vine as a remembrance and celebration of the new life that is theirs because of Jesus death on the cross and His resurrection. We believe that the baptism with the Holy Spirit is an experience that follows salvation. All believers have a portion of Gods Spirit within them. However, being baptized means that the Holy Spirit is present in a new dimension. Holy Spirit baptism empowers believers to exalt Jesus, to live lives of holiness, and to be witnesses of Gods saving grace. (Acts 1: 5, 8; 2:4).
Divine Healing
We believe that Jesus Christ heals people who are sick. God does not change; He is still willing and able to heal the body, as well as the soul and spirit, in response to faith (Mark 16: 17, 18; James 5:14-16).
The Spirit-Filled Life
We believe that born-again believers should be people who pray and who allow the Holy Spirit to shape their values and behaviors every day; their lives should exemplify love, honesty and sincerity (Ephesians 4:30-32).
The Second Coming of Christ
We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent; we are as certain that His second coming will occur as we are that His first coming is a historical fact. No one knows the exact time of His coming, but believers will continue to spread the gospel around the world until He does come again. At that time the Lord Himself will descend from heaven, the dead Christians will be resurrected, and believers will be taken up to meet the Lord in the air (Matthew 24:36, 42, 44; 1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17).
Judgment
We believe that everyone will stand before the judgment seat of Christ. Born-again believers will be sent to a place of everlasting life, and nonbelievers will be sent to a place of everlasting punishment (Revelation 20:11, 12; 2 Corinthians 5:10).
Heaven
We believe that heaven is the habitation of the living God and the eternal home of born-again believers (John 14:2; Revelation 7:15-17).
Hell
We believe that hell is a place of darkness, deep sorrow and unquenchable fire, which was not prepared for man but for the devil and his angels; it will become the place of eternal separation from God for all who reject Christ as Savior (Matthew 13: 41, 42; Revelation 20:10, 15).

As we read Gods Word, we begin to see how God responds to things. Then, when we face similar situations, we begin to respond in the same way. The following is a guide of key chapters of the Bible to applythe SOAP practice to in your daily devotions.
S
cripture
Take your time reading each chapter and allow God to speak to you. Look for a verse that particularly spoke to you and write it in your journal
O
bservation
What do you think God is saying to you in this scripture? Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you and reveal Jesus to you. Paraphrase and write this scripture down in your own words in your journal.
A
pplication
Personalize what you have read, by asking yourself how it applies to your life right now. Write how this scripture can apply to you today.
P
rayer
This can be as simple as asking God to help you use this scripture, or it may be a greater insight on what He may be revealing to you. Remember, prayer is a two-way conversation, so be sure to listen to what God has to say and journal about it.
We are currently working with Foursquare to set up an
Online Giving Option. We are trying to gauge how many
New Hope attenders would or would not use Online
Giving. You can help by informing us whether or not you
would be interested. Thank you for your help!
You have made the greatest decision of your life! By accepting Gods free gift of salvation through Jesus, you are now on the road that leads to eternal life. Christ has bridged the gap between your old life without God and your new life with Him. Romans 3:23 says, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God The Bible says that, the wages of sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 5:8 states, But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Today you stand in a right relationship with God. You are not only saved from sin but also called into a great destiny and future in Him.
Now what? Its time to get started! One of the most important things you can do is to get planted or connected in a local church. Psalm 92:13 states, They that are planted in the house of the Lord will flourish Our desire is to see you flourish in life and your relationship with God. We want to help you discover and live your God-given dreams. If you are interested, we have many DNA groups to choose from, which you can join. In these groups, you can learn the basic foundations of what it means to a Christian. There is absolutely no cost to you and they are a great way to meet new friends in church! For more info click
We encourage you to start do three things: praying (talking to God), reading your Bible (click for a Bible Reading Plan), and building healthy Christian relationships (getting planted); you will be amazed at how your new relationship with God will literally transform your life. Life may still have challenges, but you will have a new strength to overcome those obstacles!
