Lutheran's also believe that Christ's Sacraments- Baptism and Holy Communion are a "Means of Grace"- where Jesus Christ is attached through Water, Bread and Wine-The True Body and Blood of our Lord.

(3) Sola Christus (Jesus Alone) Jesus died for our sin and faith in him alone is required for salvation. (4) Sola Gratia (Grace Alone) Only through Gods grace can we be saved. (5) Sola Deo Gloria (Glory to God Alone) Only God is Worthy of glory and no man made institutions or people are worthy of glory.
