New Beginnings Christian Church
is a non-denominational fellowship of believers who choose to follow
Jesus Christ and be identified by His Name, only.
Like Christians about whom we read in the Bible,
we have no formal creed or statement of faith. But the following beliefs
we have gleaned from the Bible...
The Bible - a totally reliable guide
We believe the Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God and serves
as final authority on what we believe and how we should live. It is
our guide to understanding God and His meaning of life for each of us.
(Psalm 119:105)
Sin - our greatest problem
We believe that every person has worth as a creation of God, but that
all have sinned and separated themselves from fellowship with God. (Romans
3:23)
Jesus Christ - our only mediator
We believe that God sent Jesus, His only Son, to earth to restore our
relationship with Him and that Jesus will return someday for His people.
(John 3:16,17; I Thessalonians 5:9)
Salvation - an undeserved gift
We believe that forgiveness of sin, a restored fellowship with God and
the promise of eternal life are available to every person who trusts
in Christ as Savior and Lord. (I John 1:9; Acts 4:12)
Obedience - a humble response
We believe that Jesus requires those trusting Him should turn from a
life of sin, confess their faith in Christ and be baptized into Him
through the biblical pattern of immersion, to identify us with His death,
burial and resurrection. (II John 1:6; Romans 6:3-11
The Holy Spirit - an unseen power
We believe the Holy Spirit dwells in the life of every Christian to
provide understanding of spiritual truths, strength for living, and
empowerment to uniquely serve. (John 14:26; Acts 2:38,39)
The Church - a spiritual family
We believe the church is God's family on earth to spread the good news
of abundant life, both now and for eternity. (Hebrews 10:25; Ephesians
3:14,15)
