• 我們相信三位一體的獨一真神； 永遠以三位不同的位格存在，神--聖父、神--聖子、神--聖靈共同一體， 共同本性， 同等權能及榮耀， 有同樣的屬性及完全。

• 我們相信主耶穌基督由童貞女馬利亞受聖靈感孕所生，祂是完全的神也是完全的人，有兩個不同的屬性，但永遠集中在祂身上。

• 我們相信新舊約聖經共六十六卷逐字完全皆是神所默示，在原文絕對無誤，絕對確實，是信仰及生活的最高權威。

• 我們相信耶穌基督在十字架上代替世人的罪孽而死，所有願意悔改，並且相信的都可以罪得赦免。

• 我們相信主耶穌基督的身體復活，因而保證每個接受耶穌基督的人都同樣得到永恆的生命。

• 我們相信拒絕福音的人同樣得到復活，但是他們要面對懲罰。

• 我們相信基督的肉身降臨是隨時和肉眼可見的，將要在世上建立祂的王國，並且用公義審判世界。

• 我們相信人類最初是按照神的形象被造，因亞當一人犯罪而使全人類犯罪墮落，因而帶有與生俱來的罪性和日後選擇犯罪，導致人永遠與神隔絕的死亡。

• 我們相信人得救並且能夠脫離永恆的懲罰和享受與神相交，是藉著神的恩典，和通過個人願意相信基督在十字架上承擔我們的罪，因而得到聖靈住在人內心藉等到得贖的日子。

• 我們相信所有接受耶穌基督是救主的人都有聖靈居住在心內。

Hyde Park Chinese Baptist Church believes that:

• We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons, God-the Father, God-the Son, and God-the Holy Spirit.

• We believe in the Virgin Birth and the Deity of Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, who is also Son of Man, with two distinct natures in one Person forever.

• We believe that the sixty-six books of Holy Scripture as originally given are in their entirety the word of God verbally inspired and wholly without error in all that they declare and, therefore, are the supreme and final authority of faith and life.

• We believe the vicarious substitutionary death of Jesus Christ on the cross made atonement for the sin of the world, efficient for all who repent and believe.

• We believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ which ensures the resurrection of all believers who have received God's gift of eternal life.

• We believe also in a resurrection of judgment in regard to unbelievers who reject the gospel.

• We believe in the imminent, visible, and bodily return of Christ to this earth to set up His kingdom and to judge the world in righteousness.

• We believe that man was originally created in the image of God, that he fell into sin through the first Adam, and that he is responsible for all sin committed by birth and by choice. Sin causes him to be separated from God and lost eternally.

• We believe that salvation from everlasting punishment and entrance into a state of fellowship with God are secured only by grace and through a personal belief that Christ bore our sins in His own body on the cross and by a definite receiving of Christ, through the Person of the Holy Spirit, into one's inner being. This is to receive eternal life and to be sealed unto the Day of Redemption.

• We believe that the Holy Spirit thus indwells all who receive Jesus Christ as both Savior and Lord.

• We believe that the Holy Spirit is responsible for the quickening from death into life and for the continuing of the work of sanctification in the believer.

• We believe that the church is the body of Christ, a spiritual organism of born-again believers who are called to be identified with Christ in baptism and to remember His death in the Lord's Supper.

• We believe that Christians are called to witness for Christ, to preach the gospel to all nations, and to study the Bible personally through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit until each one is matured into the preordained purpose of God for him.
