Salvation
No subject in history is as important as the subject of Salvation. There is not even a close second among all the topics that have been taught over the centuries. Though the term salvation can be used in different ways, here at New Life Assembly we hold to a biblical standard for Salvation.

Water Baptism
According to the Bible, to be baptized in water means to be immersed in water after being born again. The order of your relationship and experience in the Lord is to first recieve salvation and to then be baptized in water, (Mark 16:16). Water baptism thus is the outward act of public identification with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. It is the outward testimony of the change that has taken place inside a persons heart as a result of believing in Jesus. We have included a sermon about water baptism below.
