What We Believe:

bullet

Sacred Names - We believe that the use of the names of the Heavenly Father Yahweh and His Son Yahshua are necessary and Our Father never changed or blessed the changes to the titles and other names used today. However, we do not judge anyone using the other names but we do teach and use the sacred names of our Heavenly Father and His Son.

The Heavenly Father - We believe in one Elohim (mighty one) and we believe He is our heavenly Father and He has a revealed personal name and that name is Yahweh. We also believe that the Set-apart (Hebrew - qodesh) Spirit comes from Yahweh and is not a separate being or person nor part of a trinity.  
 

bullet

The Messiah - We believe that Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh, the Messiah who came to save us from our sins. We believe that Yahshua is separate from Yahweh and they are not one in being but two separate persons. Furthermore, we believe Yahshua's teaching that the Father is greater than the Son.  The Set-apart Spirit is the Spirit of Yahweh and is not separate from Yahweh.

Baptism - We believe in baptism by immersion in and only in the name of Yahshua our Messiah for the remission of our sins and that we will receive the gift of the Set-apart Spirit once immersed.

Two Covenants - We believe in both Old and New Testaments and that the law is not done away with. We believe that the law brings you to Messiah Yahshua and that once we come to Yahshua we are no longer under the law. Paul taught two covenants with the new covenant not being like the old as prophesied in Jeremiah 31. In Galatians 4:21-31 Paul teaches there are two covenants: The one of the bondwoman which brings forth slavery and the other of the free woman which brings forth children who are free in Messiah. We at New Life choose to be under the new covenant which grants freedom in Messiah as Paul teaches. Paul also teaches in Romans 7:4-6 "So my brothers, you also were put to death to the Torah through the body of Messiah, for you to become another’s, the One who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to Elohim. (5) For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, through the Torah, were working in our members to bear fruit to death. (6) But now we have been released from the Torah, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in newness of Spirit and not in oldness of letter. Therefore we are not required to keep the law (Torah)."
 

bullet

Holy Days - We do not celebrate holidays such as Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day, or St. Patrick's Day.   These holidays were introduced into the apostate Western religion as part of the attempt to adapt pagan festivals to the One True Faith.  We may choose to celebrate in freedom any of the scriptural feast days of Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of Weeks, Day of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles, and The Great Day.  We believe these feast days contain shadows of heavenly appointed times as taught in the epistle to the Hebrews.
