St. Martin Lutheran Church - LCMS
We believe in The Trinity One God in Three Persons
We believe in God the Father – Creator of heaven and earth and of all that is visible and invisible.
We believe in God the Son – Jesus Christ is God the Son who came in the flesh to suffer death on the cross and to rise again to life…in order to provide victory over sin and death for ALL mankind.
We believe in God the Holy Spirit – Creates and builds and nourishes our faith.
- The Holy Spirit, through the Gospel, creates faith in the human heart, thus restoring man to a right relationship with God; guaranteeing to all who believe, the blessings of forgiveness, life and eternal salvation.
- Man is a fallen sinner who, in no way, can save himself from the damning consequences of sin.
- God calls for a total commitment on the part of all who are His and that we are all God's evangelists.
- All of our time, talents, and treasures are gifts from God and should be used to honor and glorify Christ.
- Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God and, through His death and resurrection, is mankind's ONLY Savior.
- We believe in infant baptism.
- We believe in close communion.
- We believe that the 66 books known as the Holy Bible are the divinely inspired and inerrant Word of God.
- We take our teachings, our values, and our doctrines from the Bible alone.
