Lutheran/UMC-Theological Emphasis

Lutheranism

Theological Emphasis

· Man is Justified before God by faith alone in Christ Jesus. (Faith itself is a gift from God) Ephesians 2:8-10

· All Doctrine therefore stems from this chief teaching of the scriptures. All teachings are seen in light of our salvation.

UMC

Theological Emphasis

· The emphasis of Methodism is on the perfected man. Man can mature in faith so much that he is able to love God and neighbor perfectly. He can sin no more.

All teachings are seen in light of a growing holiness.
