What We Believe |
|
To contact us: |
|
The Bible is the Word of God - Absolute truth. It shows God in Action. |
|
God is one God in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; Creator, Redeemer, and Sanctifier. |
|
Man and Woman were created by God in holiness but sinned (rebelled). We cannot by our own powers come back to God. |
|
Founded on its understanding of the Bible, The Lutheran Church Teaches that: |
|
The Savior Jesus, died and rose from the grave to save the world from sin. |
|
A person is Justified (saved), not through merit, but only by God’s grace, through faith. |
|
Baptism, a sacrament, establishes new life in a person. It remakes him or her in God’s Spirit. |
|
Repenting means sincerely regretting one’s sins and asking for Christ’s forgiveness and guidance. |
|
The Lord’s Supper, a sacrament, is the Body and Blood of Christ borne by bread and wine in Holy Communion. |
|
The Creeds are statements of belief, not additions to the Bible. They summarize the Bible’s Teachings. |
|
The Gospel, the teachings of Jesus, offers grace to everyone and will save those who believe in its promise. |
|
Sanctification (holiness of life) follows conversion, but total holiness is possible only after entering eternal life. |
