OUR FAITH
GRACE ALONE
God loves the people of the world, even though our sin separates us from Him. He sent Jesus, His Son, to love the unlovable and save the ungodly.
FAITH ALONE
By His suffering and death as the substitute for all people of all time, Jesus purchased and won forgiveness and eternal life for them. Those who hear this Good News and believe it have the eternal life that it offers. God creates faith in Christ and gives people forgiveness through Him.
SCRIPTURE ALONE
The Bible is God's inspired Word, in which He speaks to us and reveals Himself, His love and His desire for us.
We believe in the Triune God
God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We acknowledge one God in these three persons.
We believe that God the Father created the universe.
More than that, He created us and continues to provide and protect His creation.
We believe that Jesus Christ is God's only Son, true God and true Man.
Jesus lived a perfect life, took the punishment we deserved for our sin and died for us on the cross, rose again on Easter, and lives and rules in heaven.
We believe that the Holy Spirit changes lives.
The Holy Spirit brings people to faith and keeps them in faith and is alive and active through the Word and the Sacraments.
We believe, as the Scripture says, that all of us are sinful people.
We cannot earn or achieve our forgiveness or salvation. We are solely dependent on God for a saving relationship. By faith in Jesus Christ we have forgiveness of sin, life with God now, and the promise of life with Him forever in heaven.
We believe that God uses a "delivery system" to bring His kindness and love to us.
Besides the spoken and written Word of God, God comes to us in Baptism and Holy Communion.
Baptism
We believe that through the waters of Baptism, God forgives us our sin and adopts us as His own. Through Baptism, God gives the gift of new life. We affirm Baptism of infants.
Holy Communion
We believe that in Holy Communion Jesus is really present with His body and blood in the bread and wine. In Holy Communion, Jesus brings us forgiveness of sin and the promise of life and salvation.
The Church
We believe that the church is not a building but people joined together by God around His Word and Sacraments. We are passionate about the mission God has given us to bring His love and message to all people. We are committed to sharing the message of Jesus Christ with those not yet connected to Him so that they will know Him. We are dedicated to discipling people so that they will know more about Jesus, serve Him more effectively and join us more fervently in that mission.
Christ the King Lutheran Church is a part of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.
The Holy Sacrament of Baptism
Our Mission
Christ our Lord says in the last chapter of Matthew: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19
God Himself instituted Baptism, for our Lord Jesus Christ commanded His church to baptize all nations. The benefits of Baptism include forgiveness of sins, eternal salvation to all who believe this, as the words and promises of God declare."Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." Mark 16:16
Those who can receive instruction are to be baptized after they have been instructed in the main articles of the Christian faith. Little children should be baptized when they are brought to Baptism by those who have authority over them. Jesus especially invites little children to come to Him.
Babies are baptized because they are included in the words "all nations". As sinners, babies need what Baptism offers. Babies also are able to have faith.
