II Timothy 3:16 & 17: All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. and
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Prayer is a very important part of New Liberty Church. We believe that the second coming of Jesus Christ will be soon. We are in the last days of earth and the world is becoming progressively more sinful. Governments have failed as mankind and sinners will do. Mankind has no answers for life's problems and man's guilt. Christ has the answers. We serve Him as ambassadors of Jesus Christ reconciling men and women to God. New Liberty worships and praises GOD. We believe that Jesus Christ as the Bible says in John 14:6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
We believe:
The sole authority of the church is the Bible, verbally inspired, inerrant, infallible, and totally sufficient and trustworthy. The Bible is our final authority for all doctrine and practice (2 Timothy 3:16);
We affirm that salvation comes to those who truly believe and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. ( Romans 10:9).
We teach and preach that there is one living and true God (Deuteronomy 6:4;Isaiah 45:5 & 7; I Corinthians 8:4) an infinite, all knowing Spirit (John 4:24), perfect in all attributes, one in essence, eternally existing in three Persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19; II Corinthians 13:14).
We believe that God the Father orders and disposes of all things according to His purpose and grace (I Corinthians 8:6). He is the Creator of all things (Genesis 1:1-31, Ephesians 3:9). As the only absolute and omnipotent Ruler in the universe, He is sovereign in creation, providence, and redemption (Psalm 103:19; Romans 11:36).
We believe that Jesus accomplished our redemption through the shedding of His blood and sacrificial death on the cross and that His death was voluntary, vicarious, substitutionary, propitiatory, and redemptive (John 10:15; Romans 3:24, 25; Romans 5:8; I Peter 2:24).
We believe that man was directly and immediately created by God in His own image and likeness. (Genesis 2:7; Genesis 15:25; James 3:9).
We believe that all men are sinners by nature, by choice, and by divine declaration. (Psalm 14:1-3; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3: 9, 18-23; Romans 5: 10-12).
We believe that salvation is wholly of God by grace on the basis of the work of Jesus Christ and not on the basis of human merit or works ( John 1:12; Ephesians 1:7; Ephesians 2:8 & 10; I Peter 1:18 & 19).
We believe that justification before God is an act of God (Romans 8:33) by which He declares righteous those who, through faith in Christ, repent of their sins (Luke 13:3; Acts 2:38) and confess Him as sovereign Lord (Romans 10:9 & 10; I Corinthians 12:3; II Corinthians 4:5). We are declared righteous apart from any self-righteousness but solely on the righteousness of Christ.
We believe that all the redeemed once saved are kept by God's power and are thus secure in Christ forever (John 5:24; John 6:37-40; John 10:27-30; Romans 5:9-10; Romans 8:1; & 31-39; I Corinthians 1:4-8; Ephesians 4:30; Hebrews 7:25; Hebrews 13:5; I Peter 1:5; Jude 24) .
