Our Belief
| What is a Lutheran?

What is a Lutheran?

A Lutheran is a Christian who believes that...

1. Christ, through His death and resurrection, has won forgiveness for sinful human beings and offered salvation as a free gift;

2. All people are born with original sin, a corruption that keeps us from coming to God or truly loving others;

3. God is one God in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;

4. People are made right with God only by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ;

5. The Bible is God's Word that leads people to faith and keeps people in the faith by pointing them to God's love and forgiveness as given in Jesus Christ; it is understood only by the power of the Holy Spirit through the Law (showing us our sinful nature and need of God) and the Gospel (showing us what God has done for us in sending His Son to be punished in our place).

6. God loves people through people. Therefore, all people-believers and unbelievers- are gifted by God in various ways (child, parent, citizen, employee, etc.) to serve other people;

7. God operates in two kingdoms-government and the Church. Government uses laws and power to protect people whereas the Church uses God's Word and forgiveness to proclaim salvation. A Christian lives in both realms on earth and should not confuse the two by mixing either means or purposes;

8. A Christian has two natures, a sinful flesh that does not and cannot please God or love others, and a regenerated heart that aims to please God and serve others out of gratitude for His love, mercy, and forgiveness;

9. God works through means of grace, namely His Word and sacraments of baptism and communion. Lutherans do not rely upon their reason, human traditions, rules, or church authority but upon God's means of grace;

10. Christian education is vitally important in drawing people close to God and making them loving in this world; this education is ongoing from birth to death.
