Beliefs
The core belief of the New Tribes Mission is, "Sola Scriptura," accompanied by a historical-grammatical hermeneutic in interpreting said Scriptures. This emphasis on, "word by word inspiration," leads to literal belief, "in the fall of man, resulting in his complete and universal separation from God and his need of salvation;" those who die unsaved go to, "unending punishment" (hence the mandate to evangelize those without access to the gospel). Additionally, NTM is a dispensational organization, subscribing to the, "imminent...pretribulation and pre-millennial return," of Jesus Christ to earth.
