New Beginnings Christian Fellowship

STATEMENT OF FAITH

We are not a denominational church, nor are we opposed to denominations as such, only their "over-emphasis" of non essential (there are essential and there are non essential) doctrinal differences that have led to the division of the body of Christ.

WE BELIEVE in the inerrancy of scripture, that the Bible, Old and New Testaments, is the inspired Word of God. WE BELIEVE that God is eternally existent in three separate persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ was fully God and fully human, that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the removal of our sin and the imputation of His righteousness to us by His vicarious death on the Cross, was bodily resurrected by the power of the Holy Spirit, ascended back to the right hand of the Father, and ever lives to make intercession for us. WE BELIEVE that after Jesus ascended to Heaven He poured out the Holy Spirit on the believers in Jerusalem, enabling them to fulfill His command to preach the gospel to the entire world, an obligation shared by all believers today. WE BELIEVE in the full operation of every spiritual gift spoken of in the New Testament (Love being the greatest), but believe they should be strictly exercised according to the guidelines of scripture, and that the emphasis of these gifts should not be placed above the study of Gods Word.
