New Life Ministries Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible written Word of God.
​
We believe that there is only One God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and, God the Holy Spirit.
​
We believe in the blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ, at His return.
​
We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ.
​
We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
​
We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer.
​
We believe that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
​
We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in the present world.
New Life Ministries Lifestyle Statement
We believe that by accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior, our lives are poised to change dramatically. Friendships, relationships, activities, and even health issues receive careful evaluation, while we formulate reasons for the way we live our Christian lives, God’s purpose for our lives does not change.
​
To remain connected to God through Jesus Christ (John 15:4-8). A life that is cut off from God withers and dies; physically and spiritually. God desires to reproduce His son’s life through our fruitfulness.
​
To remain faithful through persecution and to resist false doctrine (2 Tim 3:12-17). The Apostle Paul expected situations to become worse as worldly pressure increased. Our testimony and knowledge of the Scriptures arm us against any deceivers or deceptive ideals.
​
To present the gospel of Jesus to the lost world (Mark 16:15-16; 1 Tim 6:12). Like an athlete or soldier, we present our best efforts to further the faith. Our transformed lives compel us to share the gospel’s impact not just for our today, but for our eternity.
Mission & Vision Statement
Our mission is to draw souls to Christ by reaching the lost; meeting them with compassion, love and kindness. To teach them the transforming word of God with excitement and passion.
​
Our vision is to be a church that is a beacon of hope and refuge for the community, specifically the Merrill neighborhood. To establish feeding and meal programs such as a food pantry, holiday meals, hot meals. To establish a youth outreach center to offer tutoring, mentoring, life skills based on Christian principals. To partner with community-based programs aimed at providing housing assistance, food assistance, employment opportunities; and sobriety programs.
