“We confess Jesus and endure, and Jesus confesses and saves us”
Our confessing Jesus and enduring are not why Jesus confesses and saves us. Jesus confesses and saves us by grace through faith in Him. But, our confessing Jesus and enduring are necessary conditions.
“Confessing Christians stick-out their necks”
The German princes who presented the Augsburg Confession in 1530 reportedly said that, before they would let anyone take the Word of God and ask them to deny their God, they would kneel and

“Pray according to God’s revealed will”
America or Australia in the FIFA World Cup? Do Christians seriously pray for their sports team to be victorious? If so, some Christians no doubt are praying for results different from the results for which other Christians are praying!
The mission of Pilgrim Lutheran Church is to glorify God by receiving the forgiveness of sins by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and sharing that salvation through word and deed with those in our midst, in our community, and throughout the world.
