What We Believe
- The BIBLE is the Word of God --- absolute truth. It shows God in action.
- GOD is one God in three persons --- Father, Son, & Holy Spirit; Creator, Redeemer, & Sanctifier.
- MAN & WOMAN were created by God in holiness, but sinned (rebelled.) We cannot by our own powers come back to God.
- The SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST died to save the world from sin and rose victoriously from the empty tomb on Easter.
- A person is JUSTIFIED (saved), not through good works, but only by God's grace, through faith.
- REPENTING means sincerely regretting one's sins and asking for Christ's forgiveness and guidance.
- The CHURCH is all those people who believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
- BAPTISM, is a sacrament, which establishes new life in a person.
- THE LORD'S SUPPER, is a sacrament, which is the Body & Blood of Christ "in,with, & under" the elements of bread & wine.
- LUTHERANS believe that a person is saved only by the grace of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
