So...You've been wondering about
the Lutheran Church
We're here to bring you the good news of Jesus
Christ...
Q: So what is Lutheranism all about?
A: It's all about Jesus Christ
Lutheranism is all about Jesus Christ.
There is NO ONE like Him in the History of the world. And there never will be
again. He was sent by God to be the visible expression of the inexpressible God
and He is somebody you might want to get to know one-on-one. So take a closer
look inside the Lutheran Church and see if you can known Christ better and
experience His presence with us.
Q: What is Jesus' Relation to God the
Father?
A: God is Jesus' Father -- and Yours
Jesus Christ walked the earth to introduce
us to His Father (you know - God the Father), who arranged this whole world for
us. In fact, He did more than arrange this place we live in. He made it out of
the material He first created! That's something ONLY God can do!
Q: So how long has the Lutheran Church been
in existence?
A: Right from the Beginning.
Lutheranism has been around by that name
for more than five centuries-and longer than that if you consider that the Holy
Spirit started His church right in the beginning (see Acts 2). When Christ rose
from His death on the cross, He declared to His followers that our sins were
forgiven in His atonement. He promised that the Holy Spirit would be with us
until the end of time when Christ comes again. You know that's right because
Christ has always kept his promises. Always! You can trust Christ, His Father
and the Holy Spirit. That's why Lutherans believe in one monotheistic God who
has revealed Himself as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. That's what
Christ teaches us about the Triune God and that's what the Lutheran Church
teaches. Christ was right from the beginning; so you can follow HIM into
eternity.
Q: Where in the World are Lutherans?
A: Wherever there are People.
Now that you know WHOM Lutherans worship,
WHERE in the world are they? Well, wherever there are people...because Christ's
church is compromised of people. That's WHY Christ came on earth to claim people
on earth to be His own. Over sixty three million Lutherans are particularly
focused in northern Europe and America. But they are in every state and nearly
every country. And that's why they are here in this place.
Q: By what Authority do you base your
beliefs on?
A: The Authority of God through the Holy Scriptures.
God did not leave us without a testament of
Himself. In the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New
Testament you can see what God has revealed about Himself and you. Christ as the
Way, the Truth and the Life can be found in the truth of the Bible because it is
transparent to what God is thinking. The Lutheran Church teaches that the
scriptures are a blueprint for time and eternity.
BE A PART OF GOD'S PLAN FOR YOU

"LUTHERAN" Church should be active here in our community, take a look at us and
