Who We Are
Zion Lutheran Church, a member of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, is named for Mount Zion in Jerusalem. “Zion” in Hebrew means high place. The corner of Lovers Lane and Skillman in Dallas is really quite flat. However, we mean to raise high the mission and ministry of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We mean to lift high the cross and elevate the Gospel through Word and Sacrament. We mean to uplift our holy hopes and noble desires by employing the Liturgy of the Church, supported by sacred music, the very handmaiden of the Gospel.
What We Believe
As Lutherans, our beliefs can be summarized in three phrases: Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Scripture Alone.
God loves all the people of the world, even though we are sinful, rebel against Him, and do not deserve His love. He sent Jesus, His Son, to save us all.
By His suffering and death on the cross for us and for all people, Jesus purchased and won the forgiveness of sins and eternal life for those who hear the Gospel and believe the Good News. They have the life that He offers forever. God the Holy Spirit creates faith in Christ through the Word and the Sacraments and offers forgiveness to all believers.
The Bible is God's inerrant and infallible Word, in which He reveals His Law and the Gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ. The Scriptures are the sole rule and norm for Christian doctrine.
