WHAT WE BELIEVE
We believe that "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man boast" Ephesians 2: 8-9. We believe in salvation by grace alone, that man is born into sin and can only be saved through faith in God's Son Jesus Christ. No one can be saved by his or her own efforts. Though we desire to live a life that pleases God, we are motivated to do this out of love and appreciation for all God has done for us in Christ. Lutheran teachings are based on God's inspired Word contained in the Bible, as well as the writings and teachings of Martin Luther and other theologians recorded in the Lutheran Confessions, summarized by the Apostle's Creed.
