STATEMENT OF FAITH

The program and activities of Liberty Church are based upon and at all times shall be consistent with the following beliefs:

  • The Holy Bible is the inspired, the only infallible and authoritative Word of God.

  • There is one God manifested in three personalities:  God the Father (I AM), God the Son (The Lord Jesus Christ),
    and God the Holy Spirit.

  • The reality of Satan and his present control over unregenerate man.

 

Christianity is based upon the following:

The deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His personal return in power and glory as Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

  • The fall of man and his lost estate, which makes necessary a rebirth through confession and belief in the Lord Jesus Christ.

  • The reconciliation of man to God by the substitutionary death and shed blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.

  • The resurrection of believers unto everlasting life and blessing in heaven, and the resurrection of unbelievers unto everlasting punishment in the torments of hell.

  • The present supernatural ministry of the Holy Spirit, who bestows gifts in and among believers on the earth today.

Marriage:

Marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman instituted by God.

  • The church defines “marriage” as the exclusive covenantal union of one man and one woman in which such union is a lifetime commitment.

  • A civil government’s sanction of a union will be recognized as a legitimate marriage by the church only to the extent that it is consistent with the definition of “marriage” found in this statement of faith.

  • Legitimate sexual relations are exercised solely within marriage. Hence, sexual activities outside of marriage (referred to in the New Testament as “porneia”-- πορνεια) including but not limited to, adultery, premarital sex, homosexuality, and pedophilia are inconsistent with the teachings of the Bible and the Church.
