OUR CREED ABOUT THE
TRINITY
We believe that God the
Father loves his whole creation, and he proved this
love by sending his son Jesus Christ to us. Jesus came to
fulfill
the prophecies of God’s Word. Jesus’ life and death overcame the curse of
our sin and therefore God loves to hear and answer all prayers offered
through our Savior.
We believe that Jesus
Christ was perfect from conception and lived his whole life without sin.
Everything we failed to do, he accomplished
perfectly. He sacrificed this perfect life to defeat our sin, and
his body was raised from the dead to defeat
death
forever. This is how Jesus forgave the
world.
Faith in Jesus brings eternal life.
We believe that the Holy
Spirit works as true God to create and strengthen our faith in Christ. He
uses his powerful tools:
His Word,
Baptism and
Lord’s Supper to do this. The Bible clearly says the Holy Spirit
lives
in all who believe. As our comforting
companion,
the Holy Spirit guides us to be a blessing for our community and especially
for the fellowship of believers.
