What We Believe:
 |
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.
|
 |
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)."

 |
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. |
