At HBC, we believe:
In the triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
In God the Father, creator and sustainer of all things.
In God the Son, Jesus Christ, our saviour, redeemer and Lord.
In God the Holy Spirit, who communicates to us the truth of the Father by showing us the Son.
In the perfect humanity and atoning death of our Lord Jesus Christ, his resurrection from the dead to eternal life, and in his ascension into heaven.
That all people, who are made in the image of God, fell through sin and stand under the righteous judgment of God.
That sinners are justified and reconciled to God, not through any personal merit but solely on the basis of God’s gracious gift of salvation through Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection which is received through repentance and faith.
In the personal return of our Lord in his risen power and glory, to judge the living and the dead.
That in the Lord's Supper and Baptism, our Lord has given to all who believe two visible ordinances showing the nature of His saving grace.
In the divine inspiration of the Holy Bible, which we believe to be the word of God, and in its authority and sufficiency to guide us in every area of life and faith.
In the gift of the Holy Spirit to all God’s people and that all members have a role to play using their God given gifts, skills and talents for the good of the church, local and universal, in the service of God’s mission.
