Who we are

We are committed to identifying with the New Testament church through study of the scriptures which we believe to be the inspired and authoritative word of God. We believe Jesus is the expected Christ of the scriptures and believe He was born of the virgin Mary, was crucified under Pontius Pilate, that He was raised from the dead by God on the third day following his burial and that He ascended into heaven and is seated on the right hand of God.

We believe in the ONE universal church under God for all humanity and in the proclamation of the one gospel to all the world. We understand that through faith in and obedience to the gospel message, repentance of life, confession of Christ as Lord and baptism by immersion into Christ for the remission of sins one is born again, and becomes a member of the New Testament church.

By faith in Christ members of the Newsome Street Church of Christ meet every Sunday for worship consisting of singing, preaching, praying, communing, giving in support of the church and study of the word.

Hear
Romans 10:13-17
(13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (14) How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard ? and how shall they hear without a preacher? (15) And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! (16) But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? (17) So then faith cometh by hearing , and hearing by the word of God.
Believe
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him

John 8:24
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

REPENT
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent , ye shall all likewise perish.

Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent , and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Confess
Matthew 10:32-33
(32) Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. (33) But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven

Acts 8:35-39
(35) Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. (36) And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? (37) And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God .
Be Baptized
Mark 16:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned

1st Peter 3:21
The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

Colossians 2:12
Buried with him in baptism , wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Walk Faithful
Romans 6:1-4
(1) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? ( 2) God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? (3) Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? (4) Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life .

Revalations 2:10
Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death , and I will give thee a crown of life.
