About First Immanuel

We accept the inerrant, inspired Word of God to be the sole source and authority of our faith and life.
God
We believe that there is one God in three persons: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Wellness

Holy Spirit
We believe that all people are lost sinners and that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential, who works through the Word and the Sacraments of Baptism and Communion.
Salvation
We believe that all people will be resurrected – those who are saved through faith in Jesus Christ to eternal life.
Christian Church
We believe in the Christian Church – the unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Creation
