The New Testament Church or New Covenant Messianic Community had very clear objectives and doctrines which form a timeless base. The following excerpt from the Constitution of NCCG (1996 Draft Edition) details the main ones:

• 1. The foundation of the New Testament Church (Nessianic Assembly) was the Apostles and Prophets, and Messiah (Christ) was the Cornerstone (1 Pet.2:4-6; Eph.2:20-21; NC&C 84).
• 2. Revelation was its founding principle (Mt.16:17-18; NC&C 357);
• 3. The first principles of salvation were:
  • 3.1. Faith/Trusting in Messiah (Heb.11:6; NC&C 152);
  • 3.2. Repentance from dead works (Mk.1:14-15);
  • 3.3. Laying on of hands for: (i) Healing of the sick (Jas.5:14-16); (ii) Blessing of children (Mk. 10:14-16; NC&C 47); (iii) Ordination to Priesthood Offices (Ac.13:2-3; 1 Pet.2:5); (iv) Confirmation (Chrism) (Ac.8:14-17); (v) Other special blessings;
  • 3.4. Resurrection from the dead (Jn.11:25; NC&C 154);

  • 3.9. Results showed in the fruits of changed lives: Love, joy, peace, gentleness, faith, goodness, long-suffering, meekness, temperance, diligence, virtue, charity, patience, brotherly kindness, godliness, knowledge (Gal.5:22; 2 Pet.1:5-7);
  • 3.10. The Word of Elohim (God) was its constant guide (Matt.24:35);
