How it all started...
New Life Deliverance Ministries, Inc. was founded in West Palm Beach, Florida in 1993. Pastor Jacquelyn C. Porter founded it after serving as overseer and pastor for 16 ½ years under the leadership of another minister. God led Pastor Porter to begin this Ministry. We began services in a living room, later moving to a hotel and then back to the living room and then to a storefront. However, in 1997 God blessed us with the church located in Bainbridge, Georgia and in 2014 we were blessed with our current location: 14 Sierra Road, Havana, Florida.
What WE Believe...
- We believe the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the only way of salvation through the forgiveness of sin. Salvation occurs when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin. Salvation is a gift from God, and it cannot be earned through our own efforts.
- We believe water baptism is a symbol of the cleansing power of the blood of Christ and a testimony to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
- We believe God has existed in relationship with Himself for all eternity. He exists as one substance in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Although each member of the Trinity serves different functions, they each possess equal power and authority.
- We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is accurate, authoritative, and applicable to our everyday lives.
- We believe in the regular taking of Communion as an act of remembering what the Lord Jesus did for us on the cross.
- We believe in the operation of the gifts of the Spirit as manifested in the Early Church and enumerated in 1 Corinthians 12-14.
