What we believe

"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." A.W. Tozer

These are the core beliefs of Iglesia Nueva Vida, based on the truths the Bible teaches. All our teaching and ministry is rooted in these biblical doctrines.

God
There is one God who exists eternally in three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise. God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom, justice and mercy. He does not change; he is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Revelation
God has revealed himself to us through his Son Jesus Christ, the visible image of the invisible God, through the Holy Scriptures, and through all of creation.

Humanity
Human beings, both men and women, were created in the image of God for his glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creation.

The fall
When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they stopped being what they were created to be and became distorted images of God. They lost fellowship with God, and all of creation has been broken ever since.

Salvation
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless life and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. God raised him from the dead, and now, by grace, offers eternal life as a gift to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation is found in Christ alone.

The church
The Church is the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The resurrection
Jesus Christ will return one day to judge the living and the dead and to bring the fullness of God's kingdom to earth.
