What We Believe
Our faith is rooted in the timeless truths of Scripture
At New Life Fellowship, we hold to the historic Christian faith as revealed in Scripture. These core beliefs unite us and guide everything we do as a church family.
Our Core Beliefs
The foundational truths that guide our faith
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God—our ultimate authority for faith and life. It reveals God's character, His plan of salvation, and His will for how we should live.
God the Father
We believe in one eternal God who exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is the Creator of all things, sovereign over the universe, and perfect in holiness, wisdom, and love.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, and will return in glory.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, regenerates believers, indwells us from the moment of salvation, and empowers us to live godly lives and serve the church.
Salvation
We believe salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone—not by our own works. Those who trust in Christ are forgiven, declared righteous, and receive eternal life.
The Church
We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers across time and place. The local church gathers for worship, teaching, fellowship, and service, fulfilling the Great Commission together.
What Else We Believe
**Baptism & Communion**
We practice believer's baptism by immersion as an outward expression of an inward faith. We regularly celebrate the Lord's Supper as a remembrance of Christ's sacrifice and our unity in Him.
**Eternity**
We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost—the saved to eternal life with God, and the lost to eternal separation from Him. Jesus will return physically to judge the living and the dead and establish His eternal kingdom.
**The Christian Life**
We believe all Christians are called to live holy lives, empowered by the Holy Spirit. We are called to love God and love our neighbors, to make disciples, and to use our gifts to serve the church and the world.
