Zion
Lutheran confesses:
-
The
Triune God, Father,
Son and Holy Spirit.
-
Jesus
Christ as Lord and
Savior and the
Gospel as the power
of God for the
salvation of all who
believe.
-
Jesus
Christ is the Word
of God incarnate,
through whom
everything was made
and through whose
life, death and
resurrection God
fashions a new
creation.
-
The
proclamation of
God’s message to us
as both Law and
Gospel is the Word
of God, revealing
judgment and mercy
through word and
deed, beginning with
the Word in
creation, continuing
in the history of
Israel, and
centering in all its
fullness in the
person and work of
Jesus Christ.
-
The
canonical Scriptures
of the Old and New
Testaments are the
written Word of God.
Inspired by God’s
Spirit speaking
through their
authors, they record
and announce God’s
revelation centering
in Jesus Christ.
-
The
Gospel, recorded in
the Holy Scriptures
and confessed in the
ecumenical creeds
and Lutheran
confessional
writings, is the
power of God to
create and sustain
the Church for God’s
mission in the
world.
Zion
Lutheran gives thanks to
God for being a member
of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church in
America and being in
partnership with other
ELCA congregations and
our ecumenical partners.
Zion shares full
communion with the
Episcopal Church, the
Presbyterian Church USA,
The United Church of
Christ, the Reformed
Church in America and
the Moravian Church. |
