We believe, teach, and confess:
The Lutheran Church does not claim to be the only saving church but it does endeavor to preserve and to pass on the truth as it is found in the Bible. It teaches, not the opinions of man, but the revelation of God. It does not destroy the truth of God by believing only what seems reasonable. Our church invites you to worship and to work with us in serving God and man.
