He sent His Son to love the unlovely and save the ungodly. The Bible is the only source that shows God's will and the only basis for faith. Lutherans talk about Law and Gospel. The Bible gives the Law, showing God's expectation of people and the terrible consequences for not following His commands. Local churches, or congregations, are the central community for faith and practice.
Christian education is important.
Lutherans provide Sunday schools, Bible classes, home-study groups, preschools, elementary and high schools, and colleges. They share their faith with individuals. Collectively, they sponsor mission programs worldwide. It is often expressed in contemporary forms. Please join us for worship and Bible studies at your nearest Lutheran church.
