The Fellowship of New Hope Church embraces classic Protestant theological concepts which we hold essential to our faith: Sola Scriptura, by scripture alone Sola Fide, by faith alone Sola Gratia, by grace alone Solus Christus, through Christ alone Soli Deo Gloria, for the glory of God alone We believe that the Bible is the authoritative and inspired word of God, serving as the means by which God reveals himself to mankind. We believe that it is the responsibility of all Christians to accurately interpret the Bible through an understanding of the historical setting, context, and language used by the original authors and to make every effort to properly determine what messages or lessons the authors were trying to convey and to determine which truths are normative and applicable in our lives today.
