We confess the Bible is the Holy Word of God. As members of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod, we believe that Holy Scripture is the inspired, inerrant, infallible, sufficient, and efficacious Word of God (sola scriptura), that we are saved by grace through the blood of Jesus Christ (sola gratia), and that we are justified through faith, not by our works (sola fide).
In addition, we hold to the confessional documents found in the unaltered Book of Concord of 1580 because they are a faithful exposition of scripture.
Amen.
