The Lutheran Confessions
What are the Lutheran Confessions?
The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod accepts the Scriptures as the inspired and inerrant Word of God, and the LCMS subscribes unconditionally to all the symbolical books of the Evangelical Lutheran Church as a true and unadulterated statement and exposition of the Word of God.
The vision of the California Nevada Hawaii District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod is to enable mission and outreach so that congregation will motivate, educate, and equip members to build relationships with the lost for the purpose of Connecting People to Jesus. Being "Lutheran," our congregations accept and teach Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther that inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th century. The teaching of Luther and the reformers can be summarized in three short phrases: Grace alone, Faith alone, Scripture alone.
