At Hurt Road Baptist Church, we believe…

  • The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative written Word of God. (Psalm 119; Matt. 4:4; Luke 24:27; 2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21).
  • There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Matt. 3:13-17; John 1:1-4, 14; 2 Cor. 13:14; 1 John 5:7)
  • In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His atoning death on the Cross, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His personal, physical return to the Earth in power and glory to reign for a thousand years (John 1:1-4; Eph. 2:13-18; Rev. 19-20).
  • In the Blessed Hope—the Rapture of the Church at Christ’s coming (1 Thess. 4:13-18).
  • That salvation is by grace through faith, not of works , that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ, and in  the new birth experience through regeneration by Holy Spirit (Ephes. 2:8-9, Rom. 5:1-2; Eph. 1:7; Col. 1:19-20; John 3:3).
  • In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by which the believer is enabled to live a holy life (Rom. 6:3-14; 8:1-2, 11).
  • In the Resurrection of both the saved and the lost: the saved to everlasting life and the lost to everlasting damnation (Rev. 20:5-6, 11-15).
