At Bethlehem, you'll find our worship is centered around God's Word and Sacraments, also known as the Means of Grace. We embrace liturgical worship because it is the clearest way to present the Gospel in Word and Sacrament. Every Sunday, we celebrate Holy Communion in order to receive the forgiveness of sins. We also believe that the Lutheran Confessions are a clear and truthful explanation of what the Bible teaches.
As Confessional Lutherans, we believe that...
The Bible is God's Word and it does not have any errors or mistakes.
All humans are born with sin and deserve an eternity in hell.
God sent his son, Jesus Christ, to live a perfect life as a substitute for us.
Through Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection, the sins of the entire world have been paid for.
Through faith in Jesus, we become heirs of eternal life in heaven!
The Holy Spirit works faith in our hearts through Baptism and continues to strengthen that faith through Holy Communion and by hearing God's Word.
