We Believe...

• The Bible is the Word of God and is without error, holy, and the only rule of faith.
• The One true God is the Triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• Because of our sin, we have earned the anger of God, but because of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ we have God's forgiveness.
• God comes to us and can be found where He said: in His means of grace of His Word & Sacraments.
• This forgiveness is a free gift to all who believe in Jesus Christ. But this gift cannot be earned by works; rather, it is a gift of God Himself, Who loves us.
• Our justification by Jesus is the doctrine on which the Church stands. By God's grace completely, we are saved by His blood and righteousness.
• Jesus will return on the Last Day to Judge the living and the dead. On that Day, the unbeliever will be cast into hell, but the believer will enjoy eternal happiness in Heaven.

The Historic Liturgy of the Church is used at Risen Savior. Jesus worshiped using the historic Liturgy. In the Liturgy, the highest of worship is rendered to God. The Liturgy is Christ centered, in which God gives us the very gifts of heaven: His life-giving Word and Sacraments. Worship services are not designed for entertainment or sensation, but to prepare broken and repentant sinners to receive these gifts of word and Sacrament, and to know the truth of the incomparable riches of the grace showered on us by our gracious and loving heavenly Father. In the Liturgy, we join in communion with Christians throughout the ages in the worship of the only true, eternal, Triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is the only means of salvation that people have been given.
