1. HopeRussia Statement of Faith

(As adopted by the National Association of Evangelicals)

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

2. Leadership

HopeRussia is led by a team of ordained teaching elders from the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and the Presbyterian Church of Eurasia (PCE). Each of these elders affirms the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms as a faithful representation of the system of doctrine taught in the Bible.
