About Christ Is Lord

Mission Statement:

Christ Is Lord Free Lutheran Church

Our mission through the power of the Holy Spirit is:

• to bring people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:18-20)

• to call Christians to a more and more Godly lifestyle

• to enable Christians to do God's work (Philippians 2:12-13)

Four Foundational Truths:

1. The SOVEREIGNTY of God.

• God is creator and He created the universe in 6 days.

• God is LORD. He has every right, claim and authority over our lives.

2. The SINFULNESS of man.

• All men are born sinners and are in need of a Savior.

• We live as fallen people in a fallen world.

3. The SUFFICIENCY of Christ.

• Salvation is found only in the person of Christ through His blood.

• Christ is not only Savior but also our source of help and power in every area of life.

• Spiritual

• Physical

• Emotional

4. The SANCTIFYING work of the Holy Spirit.

• After salvation, sanctification begins.

(Transformation of the believer by the Holy Spirit into the spiritual image of Christ)

• Sanctification is not optional. It is the goal of every believer.

• Every believer has been given abilities (gifts) to be used in building up the "Ecclesia - Congregation."
