Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of New Life based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
The Word of God
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:21.)
God
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as Father; through His Son, in redemption; and as the Holy Spirit, by emanation. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man.
(See Deuteronomy 6:4; John 1:14; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9;
I Timothy 3:16.)
(See Deuteronomy 6:4; John 1:14; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9;
I Timothy 3:16.)
Sin and Salvation
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and applying it to our individual lives as we obey God's plan of salvation, repentance, baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost!
(See Acts 2:1-4, Acts 2:37-39, Romans 3:23-25; 6:23;
Ephesians 2:8-9.)
(See Acts 2:1-4, Acts 2:37-39, Romans 3:23-25; 6:23;
Ephesians 2:8-9.)
Christian Living
As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today.
(See Mark 12:28-31; 2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1; Hebrews 12:14;
I Corinthians 12:8-10.)
(See Mark 12:28-31; 2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1; Hebrews 12:14;
I Corinthians 12:8-10.)
The Future
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end there will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death.
(See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)
(See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)
