About the Scriptures
We believe the
entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved
by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture.
Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error.
About God
We believe in one
God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the
Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to
humanity and to become the Savior of the lost world.
About Humanity
We believe that
all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship
with him but became alienated in that relationship through
sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of
regaining a right relationship with God through their own
efforts.
About Salvation
We believe that
the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the sole
basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, God freely offers
salvation to those who place their faith in the death and
resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin.
About the Christian Life
We believe all Christians should live
for Christ and not for themselves. By obedience to the Word of
God and daily yielding to the Spirit of God, every believer
should mature and be conformed to the image of Christ.
New Life
Community Church is a part of the Southern Baptist Convention
and the Shelby Baptist Association.
