There is but one living and true God. He is the maker and preserver of all things. We experience the one God through three aspects of His personality; namely, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This three-fold aspect of God, we call the Holy Trinity.

In Christ, two natures - divine and human - are joined together in one person. In other words, Jesus is truly God and truly man.

Christ truly arose from the dead and ascended into heaven.

The Holy Spirit is of one substance with the Father and the Son. He is one of the three aspects through which we experience God.

The bible contains all we need to know to be saved.

The Old Testament is not contrary to the New; in both Old and New Testaments, eternal life is offered to mankind.

All men have inherited evil impulses from their ancestors. This corruption of the nature of every man is called “original sin.” It goes back to Adam, the first man.

We are saved by faith in Christ and by that faith alone. Good works cannot save us.

Good works are the fruit of our faith in Christ

A Christian may depart from grace and fall into sin again. But those who truly repent receive God’s forgiveness and rise again to a good and holy life.

The visible Church of Christ is a congregation of faithful men and women in which the pure word of God is preached and the sacraments duly administered.

There are only two sacraments ordained of Christ our Lord in the Gospel: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.

The sacrifice of Christ is for the sins of the whole world, both original and actual. There is no other satisfaction for sin but that alone.
