    Trunk or Treat

    Is anybody else’s church doing a Trunk or Treat? This Sunday will be my first time going to one, I might volunteer at concessions or the bean bag toss, or just hang out at a trunk and hand out candy. I don’t really know anybody at my church beyond being acquaintances. A friendly acquaintance...

    Attention LCMS, The Old Testament

    Among the LCMS here, who believes that the stories, and the details of the stories in the OT, are literally true? Like Methuselah living to almost 1000 or Enoch (or was it Elijah?) flying into heaven in a chariot etc? if you do believe it what evidence do you have for their truth? Besides Jesus...

    Let’s Talk About New Age Metaphysical Stores

    My friend, a staunch Catholic, was telling me about this neat Protestant store that’s similar to a Catholic run store but it’s geared toward non Catholics. I thought that since I’m a fairly new Lutheran and we often still shop at the Catholic store, this would be helpful to my spirituality...

    JOSIAH

    I’m going through my typical worrying about religion again, in particular, the LCMS teaching of a young earth. Since you were at the convention that they decided to uphold a young earth teaching, did they make an educated decision? Did they do their research on SCIENCE, or did they just decide...

    Lutheranism and Job

    What is the Lutheran belief on Job? I’m reading it now. Do Lutherans believe Job was a real person? Do Lutherans believe that all the long winded speeches Job and the others said we’re actual, word for word what these men said?

    Lotus Flower

    I think the Lotus flower is pretty and had one on my Facebook page cover. But then I started thinking about how the Lotus is associated with Easten religions. Is it wrong to display the Lotus on fb, or on a permanent tattoo or other ways?

    Enoch and Elijah

    Where does the LCMS teach that Enoch, Elijah and the chariot are? Floating around in space or what? And how could an earthly made thing like a chariot fly off into the sky? Only LCMS answers please.

    Volunteering

    Does anyone here do volunteering for their Lutheran (or other) church? I’m trying to get to know more people at mine and so I helped our head pastors‘ wife decorate our annual flowered crosses and she recently called me and asked if I wanted to help a small group of church members decorated for...

    The RCC Claim

    Currently on the Catholic board and really, anytime I read a Catholic position, they claim that the RCC was established by Christ, Himself. Is this true? I know Martin Luther started out as a Catholic priest but disagreed with the RCC on several things, particularly indulgences. So was the RCC...

    UFOs and LCMS

    Another question for those LCMS posters in the know. I just saw something VERY weird on Lester Holt’s Nightly News. They had a story about UFOs and showed video footage of them. They were cone shaped. I also watched a video about this online...I think it was shown on the Today Show where an...

    Josiah

    Josiah did you say you believe in an old earth or a young earth? And why? Evidence? I tried sending you a PM but there’s some tech difficulties.

    Snopes, Creationism and Conspiracy Theory

    Why Creationism Bears All the Hallmarks of a Conspiracy Theory | Snopes.com I probably should stop looking at the Answers In Genesis site. They rant on about this article, above. And rant so much that I don’t even know what to think. I tried to fact check Snopes and all I keep getting is this...

    LCMS Services

    For those who are LCMS or have visited one recently, what are your services like? I’m curious to know if any are at all like mine. Our worship services are similar to ND services. Praise band with contemporary Christian music, or hymns done in a rock/pop sound. Screens with the prayers and song...

    LCMS Church Service

    For those who are LCMS or have even recently visited one, what are your services like? I’m wondering if anyone else has services like ours? Ours is, I guess, you’d describe as being similar to a ND service. It begins with music (contemporary Christian, sometime hymns with a rock/pop sound) from...

    How?

    How can this be explained since us Christians believe that life came from God and as described in Genesis? Every time I start to feel good about my faith, some scientist comes along and ruins it. https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/lightning-origin-of-life-1.5952917

    LCMS, Demons and Mental Illness

    Back in Biblical times those afflicted by mental illness were probably described as having demons. People were ignorant of the symptoms of mental illness. Since the Lutheran LCMS views The Bible are free from error, how can this be?
