What We Believe
New Growth Press believes the following gospel truths:
There is one true God, the sovereign, omniscient Creator of all things, who exists in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The Bible is God's Word to his people, divinely inspired, true, and our guide for life. It tells one story: The story of how God sent his own Son to redeem his people from their sins and give all who believe in him eternal life.
Men and women were created by God in his image to love and enjoy him forever, but their relationship with God and each other was broken by Adam and Eve's disobedience. Because of the Fall, all people are sinners and justly subject to God's wrath, death, and eternal separation from him.
God came to our world in the person of Jesus Christ, fully human and fully divine. He lived a perfect life and took the judgment we deserve by dying in our place. God accepted his sacrifice, and he was physically raised from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and now rules as Savior and Lord.
All who by faith in Jesus Christ repent of their sins are forgiven, reconciled, and justified by God through grace alone
The presence and transforming power of the Holy Spirit who lives in all believers and gives them a new heart, the power to live a new life of love toward God and others, and a new purpose of glorifying God in everything.
The unity of all believers in Jesus Christ, expressed in the body of Christ, his church that is growing and making disciples throughout the world.
The second coming of Jesus Christ, who will judge all people with justice and mercy, welcoming those with faith in him to eternal life and separating from him forever those who did not believe in him.
