Lutheran take: A few morons but not all
Most Protestant apologetics assumes that everyone who read the Bible before 1500 AD is a complete and utter moron
Applying John's style to the Synoptic Gospels is a mistake
Jesus said “I am the door.” Therefore, Jesus is a literal wooden door.
Hot take maybe but I think it takes a little longer than that
If you need the tea app your intuition is broken You should be able to know whether someone is good or bad within 2 minutes of meeting them
The theological implications of this are fascinating. Apparently, only Abby married Josh so its not polygamy? Could Brittany marry someone else? What does it mean to be one flesh with your spouse when you literally share one flesh with a different person already?
I honestly find Abigail and Brittany Hensel fascinating and a testament to human adaptability. I'm really glad they are leading happy lives with Abigail getting married
The earliest Church actually rejected them until Jerome included them in the Vulgate. In which he stated that they weren't Scripture... Believe it or not, church leaders can make mistakes
Protestants literally rejected 7 books of scripture to become protestant.
We took over that city 😊
Me yesterday, when I happened to be in New Orleans, not knowing there was a huge LCMS youth event there:
Harrison had an excellent sermon. He also said: "I need 1000 of you to enter church work now!" He wasn't holding back 😊
Westboro Baptists: “You have sinners in your church!” President Harrison: “Well, duh!” 🤣
Couldn't Christians have made the same claim about the organ when it was first used in the 7th century? "This doesn't sound like church!" No, Church worship "sounds" like Word and Sacrament
They don’t prefer organ because they don’t want church to sound like church. It’s the same reason people “don’t prefer” a pastor wearing vestments.
I don't even prefer music with guitars. I am a hymn-guy 100%. But that's my preference. Others have different preferences. Is there room for all of us in the Synod? I believe so - as long as the words we confess and sing are faithful to our theology.
Guitar is great for camp fires, Pastor. Respectfully, can we stop being held hostage to the 1960s?
💯 We need to put more resources into writing different genres of (faithful) music in the Lutheran Church The guitar is not evil
Lutherans complaining about modern church music invading your youth. You are the church of Bach...instead of complaining...WRITE BETTER PRAISE MUSIC THAN THE NONDENOMS.
Very happy to be meeting a lot of you on X at the Gathering 🙂
I am currently being reminded how nice Midwest people are
This is a Mormon's argument. Yet the Church Fathers believed this verse was sufficient "He commands them to baptize into the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost, not into a unipersonal God. And indeed it is not once only, but three times, that we are immersed into the Three…
It does not follow that sharing one “name” is sharing one divine essence. I can say that it refers to one authority, that the Son and Spirit are not the same being as the Father but operate under the same authority, like delegates. This verse is insufficient to prove the trinity.
A morsel of attention
why is everyone mean to the kindest people for absolutely no reason
