What We Believe
- That God, the Father, created each of us and all that exists; that God is the ruler of the universe.
- That God, the Son, Jesus Christ, in His death and resurrection frees us from sin and death; that Jesus came bringing the rule of God in our daily lives; that Jesus came making known the love and mercy of God for all people.
- That God, the Holy Spirit, is at work in our lives and the world to remake them according to God’s will.
- That the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God; that God’s Word comes to us as both Law and Gospel.
- That we encounter the Living God in the means of Grace: God’s Word, baptism, and communion.
- That in order to understand what we believe you need to participate in the life of the church.
- That the confession of faith of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America more fully expresses what we believe.
