Theology Links
The first of the Core Values of the Augustana District: Theology, Church and Mission. Our faith is deeply and firmly rooted in the Holy Scriptures.
“The Word of God is Jesus Christ[2], the proclamation of Him[3], and the Holy Scriptures[4]. This Word functions as both law and gospel, which need to be distinguished, but not separated. The law orders society and convicts us of sin, showing us our need for a Savior[5]. The gospel is the power of God that liberates us from sin, death, and the power of the devil, and brings us, by grace, from death to life[6].
