The Name
New Harvest Bible College
The name New Harvest is deeply rooted in biblical theology, apostolic mission, and the present work of God in the earth. It reflects both continuity with Scripture and urgency in our generation.
1. The Biblical Foundation of the Harvest
Throughout Scripture, the concept of a harvest represents the gathering of souls into the kingdom of God.
Jesus declared:
“The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few…” (Luke 10:2)
The harvest is not merely agricultural imagery; it is evangelistic, eschatological, and redemptive. It speaks of:
- Souls ready to receive truth
- A divine timetable
- The necessity of laborers sent by God
From the Law and Prophets to the teachings of Christ, the harvest consistently symbolizes God’s gathering of His people.
2. The “New” in New Harvest
The word New carries powerful theological significance.
It reflects:
- New Covenant reality (Jeremiah 31:31; Luke 22:20)
- New birth (John 3:3–5)
- New creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17)
- New outpouring of the Spirit (Acts 2; Joel 2:28)
We are not presenting a new gospel, but rather a fresh move of the same apostolic truth being revealed and received in this generation.
“New” speaks to:
- Renewal of apostolic doctrine
- Revival of spiritual authority
- Restoration of biblical identity
- A present-day move of God
3. Apostolic Urgency and End-Time Vision
The name reflects the conviction that we are living in a time of accelerated harvest.
Jesus said:
“Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.” (John 4:35)
This is not a future reality alone, it is a present mandate.
New Harvest represents:
- A call to labor, not observe
- A mandate to disciple, not merely gather
- A burden for global evangelism
- A recognition of the nearness of God’s redemptive culmination
4. Identity and Mission
The name defines both who we are and what we are called to do.
New Harvest is:
- A place of preparation for laborers
- A training ground for apostolic ministry
- A center for biblical teaching and spiritual formation
- A catalyst for revival and outreach
We exist not just to educate, but to equip workers for the field.
5. A Name That Speaks Vision
“New Harvest” is not symbolic alone; it is declarative.
It proclaims:
- God is still moving
- Souls are still being gathered
- Truth is still transforming lives
- The field is still ready
And most importantly:
We are called to be laborers in that harvest.

Statement of
Faith
1. Sola Scriptura: We believe that the Bible (Old and New Testaments – 66 Books) is the inspired Word of God. It was written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and is therefore infallible in its original manuscripts. The Bible is our supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and life (Ps. 19:7-11; 2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:19-21).
2. God: We believe that there is One true God (Deut. 6:4) As loving creator of the universe, God continues to personally sustain, rule, and care for all He has made (Gen. 1:1; Heb. 1:3; 2 Chr. 20:6; Matt. 7:11).
2. Father: We believe the Father, an infinite, personal Spirit (John 4:24). He is perfect in holiness (Is. 6:1-4), wisdom and justice (Gen. 18:25), power (Mat 19:26), and love (1 John 4:8). We believe that He cares about our needs, hears and answers prayer (Mat 21:22), and saves from sin and eternal death all who come to Him calling on the Name of Jesus (Romans 10:13).
3. Son: We believe that Jesus is the Messiah, God incarnate in the flesh (John 1:1). We Believe that Jesus and the Father are One (Isa. 9:6, John 14:9). He is fully God and fully man; conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Lk. 1:31-35). We believe that He lived a sinless life (Heb 4:15); that He paid for our sins by dying on the cross as our substitute (Rom. 5:8); that He bodily rose from the dead (1 Cor. 15:3-4, 17-20) and ascended into heaven (Acts 1:9). Further, we believe that He will personally, visibly return to earth as He has promised (Matt. 25:31-33; Acts 1:11).
4. Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is also fully God. He convicts people of their sin (Jn. 16:8-11), and He dwells within those who have come to salvation through Christ and are born again of the water and the Spirit (Jn. 3:3, 5, 16; Acts 2:38, 4:12; Roman10:9; Cor 3:16;Eph 2:8-9). Through the Baptism of the Holy Spirit believers receive power (Acts 1:8), instruction (Jn. 16:13), and the clear physical evidence of the reception of the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues as well as the evidence of the operation of the Spiritual gifts (1 Cor. 12:4-7) to carry out the mission of Christ. The Spirit-controlled Christian will show evidence of an increasingly Christlike character (Gal. 5:22-26). That those who have received the Holy Spirit will no longer succomb to habitual sin (Gal. 5:16, 24-25). His very presence in our lives gives us assurance that we will inherit eternal life when Christ returns (Eph. 1:13-14).
5. Mankind: We believe that God created mankind, male and female, in the image of God and free from sin (Gen. 1:27); therefore, all persons have essential dignity and worth. But the Bible also teaches that mankind fell into sin (Gen. 3:1-19); each aspect of our character is corrupted; each person is spiritually dead (Eph. 2:1), and therefore each of us is in need of salvation (Rom. 3:23; Rom. 5:12-21, 6:23).
6. Salvation: We believe that the only way of salvation is by grace through genuine faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is a gift from God (Rom. 6:23). It cannot be earned through any human merit or works of the flesh(Eph. 2:8-9). Those who are saved acknowledge Christ as Lord (Rom. 10:9-13), Genuinely repent of their sin by turning away from their sinful lives, crucifying their flesh and killing the sin nature. As an act of genuine obedient faith they are buried with Christ in water baptism in the name of Jesus for the remission of Sin, and receive the resurrection by the operation of God (Col. 2:12) and given new life by the gift of the Holy Spirit to empower them to walk in the Spirit and are sanctified through obedience to Christ's commandments in this lifetime (Eph. 2:10), and so have the promise of heaven for the future if they continue to abide in Christ(Jn. 14:1-6).
7. The Church: We believe in the “universal church,” the Body of Christ, established on the day of Pentecost, the Apostolic Church, which is a spiritual body consisting of all true Christians with Christ as head (Col. 1:18). We also believe in the “local church,” which is a visible assembly of believers (Heb. 10:24-25). All members of the Body of Christ have been baptized upon a credible profession of faith in Jesus (Acts 2:38), baptized in the Holy Ghost with evidence of spiritual gifts that follow all true believers. The Body organizes themselves for the purposes of evangelism (Matt. 28:18), worship (Jn. 4:23), edifying one another (Eph. 4:16), and caring for the needy (Jam. 1:27; Acts 2:42, 46). The two ordinances of the church are the baptism of believers (Matt. 28:19) and the Lord’s Supper (1 Cor. 11:23-26).
8. Christian Conduct: We believe that the supreme task for every believer is to glorify God in his life (1 Cor. 10:31). The Christian should seek to live blamelessly before the world (1 Pet. 1:15; Rom. 12:1), to be a faithful steward of the possessions, time and abilities that God has given each of us (Lk. 16:10-13), and to seek for themselves and others the full stature of maturity in Christ (Eph. 4:11-13) and to gradually conform to His image which is the will of God (Rom. 8:29).
