Statement of Faith
Peace
Thru Christ Lutheran Church is a confessional Lutheran church whose aim is
to uphold the Biblical teachings and Christian values which God restored
to the world through the Lutheran Reformation some 485 years ago.
We proclaim to a world dead in sins that salvation is a gift of God's grace; that Jesus Christ, true God and true Man, paid the full sacrificial price - His very life - so that the free gift of salvation could be ours.
We teach that the Holy Spirit works repentance and faith in the hearts of individuals through which one receives the blessing of Christ’s salvation. The foundation for such saving faith is the Bible - God's holy, verbally inspired and unchangeable Word. Since "all Scripture is given by inspiration of God," it is completely reliable, trustworthy and true. It is the only source for faith and life.
Peace Thru Christ is a member of the Church of the Lutheran Confession (CLC). The Church of the Lutheran Confession aims to be what its name implies—a church that continues to uphold the scriptural teachings and Christian values, which God restored through the Lutheran Reformation of 1517. Drawn from Scripture, the historic Lutheran Creeds—especially the Augsburg Confession—make it clear that salvation is a gift of God’s grace for the sake of Jesus Christ, who paid the price—His life—for that gift. It is also clear that the Holy Spirit works repentance and kindles the faith through which one receives the blessings of salvation.
