The Doctrinal Statement of New Covenant Fellowship
- "What We Believe"

God, Himself
The Lord Jesus Christ
The Holy Spirit
  • We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells all believers, conforming them to the image of Jesus Christ.
    John 14:17, Eph 1:13

Scripture
  • We believe in the absolute inspiration of the original Holy Scriptures, given by the Holy Spirit without error, as He moved upon holy men of old. Furthermore, we believe that the church has no authority to establish doctrine or practice contrary to these same Scriptures, which were subsequently accepted as cannon by the early Church.
    2 Tim. 3:12-17, 2 Peter 3:14-18

Creation of Man
  • We believe that man was made in the image of God. He is now, by reason of the fall, spiritually depraved and alienated from his Creator. Apart from God’s grace he has no ability to attain to his high calling.
    Gen. 1:27, Eph. 2:1-10

Justification by Grace
  • We believe that justification is by grace, through faith in our Lord’s sacrifice on Calvary.
    Eph. 2:1-10, Col. 2:13-15

Separation from the World
  • We believe that those who are called by the name of Christ should depart from iniquity. Understanding that salvation from penalty of sin only begins the process of redemption, we acknowledge that one work of the Holy Spirit is to create in us the character of Christ.
    2 Timothy 2:19, Rom. 6, Rom. 12:2, Rom. 8:1-15

Water Baptism
  • We believe that all of God’s people are to be buried with our Lord Jesus Christ in the waters of baptism by immersion subsequent to conversion.
    Matt 28:19, Acts 2:38, Rom 6:1-4

Priesthood of the Believer
  • We believe in the priesthood of the believer; that is to say, all people born of God have equal status before, and direct access to, the Lord.
    1 Peter 2:9

Baptism of the Holy Spirit
  • We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is an endowment of power, subsequent to conversion, given by God to anoint the believer for ministry.
    Acts 1-2, Acts 4:23-31

Gifts of the Holy Spirit
  • We believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit are active within the body of Christ until the coming of the Lord. Furthermore, we believe the development of these gifts of the Spirit ought to be encouraged under the guidance of local church authorities and in accordance with a Biblical order of worship.
    1 Cor. 12-14

The Return of Christ
  • We believe in the literal second coming of our Lord, the resurrection of the regenerate to eternal life and the unregenerate to eternal damnation, and the ultimate victory of the eternal Kingdom of God.
    1 Cor. 15:50-57, John 14:1-3, Rev. 20:11-15, Matt. 24-25
