Waterloo, Iowa – Ascension Lutheran Church is embarking on a “2017 YEAR OF THE BIBLE” public proclamation program. The program emphasizes a return of our nation to its as-founded acknowledgement of and reliance on the Bible at a time when the culture and government are rejecting it. In Phase I of the program, the congregation’s “2017 YEAR OF THE BIBLE” information was provided to
Federal and State Congresses, Supreme Court Justices and other Government agencies. In Phase II the program will shift targets and will challenge other churches to enter the public arena with a “2017 YEAR OF THE BIBLE” proclamation through all media available. (Sample attached)
The Ascension Congregation was formed in 1987 based on the unchanging and life-giving dependable power revealed in the inerrant, infallible Word of God, the Bible. Based on I Pet. 1:3-7 the congregation lifts up God’s Word as the only sure basis for hope at just such a troubled time as we live in today. The Congregation holds to the conservative middle ground spectrum of Lutheranism. (AALC) and equates its stand as being especially apropos in this the 500th anniversary year of the Reformation. This conservative middle ground emphasis provides a special venue of hope in a time when the nation is paralyzed by a polarization at the extremes. Ascension prayerfully urges and encourages every Christian Church regardless of size or denomination, to enter the public arena and voice their emphasis on returning our nation to its
as-founded Bible based modus operandi ere the day of grace be ended! Ascension Lutheran would be extremely delighted to provide further “2017 YEAR OF THE BIBLE” information:
