what s in a name lutheran martin luther was a man who in the late early 1500s challenged the church only one at that time that christians could purchase forgiveness from god based on the truths that god revealed to this man through the bible a division in the church began the group of christians that followed luther s teachings called themselves lutherans the important thing is not the name lutheran or even christian but what we believe and teach that is the content of what is revealed in the bible for us all what we believe here at good shepherd sola scriptura by scriptures alone we believe that the bible alone is the ultimate source of true teaching other sources of doctrines teachings such as human and church traditions supposed additional revelations and human reason are not supported among us when other writings repeat and accurately set forth bible truths we find them useful sola gratia by grace alone we believe that we sinners are justified declared not guilty pronounced forgiven 100 by god s underserved love for us his grace sola fida solo christo by faith alone christ alone this free forgiveness is received 100 through the gift of faith or trust in jesus christ alone so we reject human merit contributing good works or human cooperation with god in conversion and salvation as false ideas it s not what we have done but what christ did for us soli deo gloria glory to god alone we believe that god creates maintains and strengthens this saving faith reliance on christ in us through the gospel good news centered in jesus christ this gospel is given by god to us through his word and the sacraments of baptism and the lord s supper these are his chosen means of grace and no one can have or maintain faith unless god brings this about through his word and sacraments as tools he uses to bless us 11[close]
