What We Believe

"We Exist to Win and Grow People in Christ"

Victory Lutheran is a member of the Church of the Lutheran Brethren and operates in harmony with the Constitution and By-Laws of the Church of the Lutheran Brethren. Victory Lutheran has been ministering to the community of Jamestown for over 40 years!
 
The Word of God is the focus of our worship services, the textbook for our teaching ministries, and the foundation of our daily lives. Whether we are preaching, teaching, singing or just talking, we want to be people of the Word.
This focus on the hearing of the Word of God is at the heart of the approach of Victory's take to teaching , service, and worship, so we make the preaching of the Word central to our Sunday worship gatherings.  
You are invited to worship with us! Come with an expectant heart, ready to receive good gifts from God, even as you raise your heart and voice in praise and thanksgiving, and as you bring your requests to Him. We pray that you will be able to say with the Psalmist, "I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of the Lord!" Psalm 122:1

Core Beliefs

The following are the core beliefs of Victory Lutheran Church | Jamestown, ND based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.

God

There is one eternally existing God who has three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise.  God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom,  justice, and mercy. He is unchangeable and therefore is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Revelation

God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself.

Mankind

Humans, both male and female, were created in God's image for His glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creations.

The Fall

When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they ceased to be what they were made to be and became distorted images of God. This caused them to fall out of fellowship with God, and fractured all of creation ever since that time.

Salvation

Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.

The Church

The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ressurection

Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
