About Us Lutherans

In the words of the classic Lutheran summary of faith, we believe that we are saved 'by grace, for Christ's sake, through faith'. In other words, there is nothing we can do to earn God's favour or to gain eternal life. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus Christ has won all this and more for us. We also believe that only the Bible is the source of inspiration and teaching. The Lutheran Church of Australia subscribes to the central teachings (or confessions) of Lutherans worldwide. We also adhere to the three ecumenical (or universal) creeds of Christians around the world. .
