What are some good reasons to forsake mainstream evangelicalism for Lutheranism? . I'll start with two reasons. 1) Justification by Faith Alone (with a proper distinction between Law & Gospel)!!!!. 2) The proper understanding of the True Body & Blood of Christ in the Eucharist.

I believe that Jesus Christ, true God, begotten of the Father from eternity, and also true man, born of the Virgin Mary, is my Lord, who has redeemed me, a lost and condemned person, purchased and won me from all sins, from death, and from the power of the devil; not with gold.

"At the outset we must again make the preliminary statement that we 1 do not abolish the Mass, but religiously maintain and defend it. For among us masses are celebrated every Lord’s Day and on the other festivals, in which the Sacrament is offered to those who wish to use it. "

Somehow the "Epistle of Straw" made its way back into the Bible!. Jk, Luther never removed James from the Bible or any other books.

I had a couple of comments stating that Lutheranism is dying or will be dead very soon. I've seen the stats and it doesn't look good so I'm asking you to post positives about Lutheranism, maybe a converts short story or how many new members you have in your congregation?

@DaiIyFightVid I'm conflicted over this. The animal instinct for revenge is always there and seems just but it is an animal instinct. But we are also told ton"Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute." Psalm 82.3.

Anecdotal, people that leave Protestant churches are not avid Bible readers and fail to understand confessionalism.

Lutherans! . Which translation of the Bible do you use and why?. I'll start, I use the KJV and don't plan on switching. The congregation I attend uses the ESV so that is a backup I use. I use the KJV because it is a beautiful translation and widely appreciated even by cultists.

LUTHERANS!!!!. Modern folks often view "Lutheran" as sectarian and assume we "follow Luther." Since this wasn't the name Lutherans initially called themselves should we drop the name from our church signs, etc. retaining it for the "about" section on our medias?. God bless.

LUTHERANS!!!!. As a former Reformed Baptist [20+yrs] I'm not sure what Lutheran evangelism looks like. I have plenty of experience with evangelism but it is Baptistic and now I'm on the Evangelism Committee at church I'm not sure how to proceed. Any thoughts?

Luther on praying for the dead, “'Dear God, if the soul is still in the state that it can be helped, then I pray that You would be gracious to it.'” When you have done that once or twice, then cease and commend the soul to God."

I started a Discord channel to encourage people to read the Lutheran Confessions, the Book of Concord, during Lent. If we read as a group it may help keep us on track. When your reading for the day is done simple type "done" in the channel.

@JungHessian The Baby Boomers destroy more than they built up with their prescription drugs for "pain", expensive pension plans, early retirements, wanting to float off into eternity high and fat. Boomers are the first generation to leave less for their posterity than previous generations.
