A Lutheran is first a Christian - one who trusts in Jesus Christ as Savior. Furthermore, we are committed to proclaiming the Good News of Jesus so that others may also believe, grow, and serve joyfully with us. In our preaching and teaching, we hold to certain truths that find their source in scripture. The following is a summary of those truths.
We believe: - That God is the creator of the universe and sustains it with His power.
- That the first people, Adam and Eve, doubted and rebelled against God.
- That now, Every human being is born with a self-centered nature and a tendency for evil. People need forgiveness and new life.
- That God, out of pure love, gives forgiveness of sins because His own son, Jesus Christ, took the punishment for all sin when He died on the cross.
- That people receive forgiveness through faith.
- That the Bible is the source of knowledge about God and His forgiveness.
- That the church is the fellowship of all those who have come to faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
This is a short list of our beliefs. Please do not hesitate to call or speak to one of the pastors if you have and questions or want to know more about our beliefs.
