The Beliefs of the New Testament Church

We believe that God loves us; that God loves and lives in passionate pursuit of the whole world, including you. God is the ruler of our lives, and that binds us together in powerful relationships with each other, with Christ Jesus, and with you!

We believe that God calls us to be witnesses of His benevolent and righteous rule and reign in the world. Jesus came to proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God, and as Christians (followers of Christ) our lives and our words are a Signpost of that Kingdom. We invite you to receive the gift of the Kingdom of God (Mark 10:15).

We believe that God calls us to be disciples. Jesus told those who walked with him, after his death and resurrection, to Go make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. You will find us to be a people who place a high value on loving people, teaching people what Jesus says about life and life everlasting, and baptizing them into Christ to receive a new birth through Him. Our goal is to be all that God has in mind for his people.

We believe that members of the body of Christ are called to serve. Another word for service is ministry. Every Christian is given gifts by God that are meant to strengthen the community (Romans 12:4-6). In this church family, you will have a place to serve, and a place to belong!

We believe that we encounter God in our worship. We gather together to worship Him in Spirit and truth. God is enthroned upon the praise and worship of his People (Psalm 22:3). We gather to encourage each other, to love one another, and to glorify God who reigns.

We believe there is One God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe that the Bible is God’s inspired Word and is, therefore; our only guide in faith and in practice of life and worship.

We believe that gospel is epitomized in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus the Messiah. Jesus died for sins, once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring us to God (1 Peter 3:18). We are saved by our faith in the work of Jesus on the cross and follow His lead as to how to receive Him.

We believe that the church is made up of those people who choose by faith to give their whole lives to God, allowing God to rule their lives. We believe that this covenant commitment is fulfilled by loving Him with all that we have and all that we are which leads us to repentance, confession, and baptism (which is immersion) into the possession of Christ.

We believe that the church is the temple of the Holy Spirit of God and that each baptized Christian is a vessel of that Holy Spirit of God.

We believe that God is enthroned in heaven, ruling the cosmos. When Judgment Day comes, Christ will come and draw all things to a close. Everyone will be required to stand before the judgment seat of Christ and give an account of the deeds done in the body. Those who walk in faith and faithfulness will be received into the happiness of the Lord.

What you will see in our worship:

 We have communion every Sunday where we commemorate and celebrate the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ as our Lord.

 We sing without musical instruments because the early Christians did not. We invite everyone to sing!

 We pray together, read scripture together and we learn more about Jesus each week with a sermon preached from the word of God.

What you may not see, but is distinctive about us:

 This church is led by God and His word as well as spiritual men who have been selected by the congregation to serve as Shepherds (pastors), Elders, or Overseers (bishops). The elders of this church are held accountable by God and His word.

 We are not a part of any denominational structure. We are a self supporting self governing body of believers in Christ.
