WHAT WE BELIEVE

The following are the core beliefs of Liberty Church and are based on the foundational truths found in the Bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.

The bible

 We believe the Bible to be the revealed Word of god, fully and verbally inspired of God. We believe the Scriptures to be the inerrant, infallible Word of God, as found within the 66 books from Genesis to Revelation. We believe God not only inspired every word, but had preserved them through the ages.

God

We believe in one God, who is eternal, self-existent, infinite, and immutable. We believe He has one nature, one essence, and one substance, yet manifests Himself to man in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The son

We believe Jesus Christ is the one and only Savior of mankind, eternally God and fully divine. He was virgin born, God incarnate, sent to reveal God, redeem humanity, and rule God’s kingdom. He lived a perfect, sinless life and offered Himself as a substitutionary sacrifice for sin, paying its penalty through His death and shed blood on the cross, which God accepted by raising Him from the dead. He ascended to heaven, is seated at the right hand of the Father, will receive His church at the Rapture, and will return to reign as King for 1,000 years.

The holy spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit of God is a person who has personality and all the attributes of Deity. We believe the Holy Spirit has always been involved in the affairs of mankind. However, we believe He has a special ministry which began at Pentecost and will continue until the Rapture. This ministry includes convicting the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. The Holy Spirit was also sent to regenerate, sanctify, seal, and fill all who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ.

sin and salvation

We believe all men were born with an inherited sin nature received from our common ancestor, Adam. We believe that because of his nature, man is a sinner by choice, and he is totally incapable of reforming himself or ceasing from his sin by his own power. We believe the only hope of deliverance for man is a total change of mind concerning his sinful condition and inability to change it, and a turning to Jesus Christ as the only Savior. We believe that only through the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ on the Cross can a man be delivered from his sin. We believe that all those who reject Jesus Christ as their Savior are already condemned to an eternity in the Lake of Fire.

The church

We believe the Church began with the calling out of the twelve apostles by Jesus Christ and was empowered on the day of Pentecost. We believe the local church is God’s only instituion to carry out His work today. We believe the local church is composed of members who have been saved and baptized according to the command of Christ, and have voluntarily united together for the purposes of worship, fellowship, service, and communion. we believe all true believers will be taken up at the Rapture, just prior to the Tribulation.

The last days

We believe in the literal interpretation of the Scriptures in their grammatical and historical context. We believe in the pre-tribulational Rapture of the Church, followed by the seven year Tribulation. We believe in the pre-millennial return of Christ to the earth and His literal rule of one thousand years. following tis one thousand years is the Great White Throne Judgment and then the new Heaven and new earth.
