    The Literary Lutheran Reads the Book of Concord

    I might get an idol of his wife so he's not so lonely.

    The Literary Lutheran Reads the Book of Concord

    Lutherans aren't animated people. We don't even laugh. We just smile loudly. [emoji4]

    Water Baptism

    I've given you Scripture and you deny it. I give you plain teaching from the man who freed the Scriptures from Roman hands, the Scriptures you deny, and you ignore him. I'm not the one following silly teachings. I used to believe as you do. Then my eyes were opened to see the truth. One day I...

    Water Baptism

    So you didn't dodge the question I asked you? I asked you a question, you didn't answer it and instead talked about other things. Everyone can see that's what happened. The only liar here is you.

    Water Baptism

    It's Jesus' promise of the forgiveness of sins connected to the physical elements of bread and wine. I have not created a mystical fantasy or whatever you called it, I have cited a mystery found in Scripture. Perhaps this excerpt from Luther's Small Catechism will help you to see the truth...

    The Literary Lutheran Reads the Book of Concord

    [emoji342] Happy Friday! It's time to watch this week's final episode of The Literary Lutheran Reads the Book of Concord. https://youtu.be/vTmXP26fxtA

    Water Baptism

    Neither of those Sacraments are symbolic! Christ delivers forgiveness of sins through both Baptism and the Lord's Supper. You're the clueless one who doesn't grasp these truths of Scripture then has the audacity to act like you're intellectually superior. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] But please...

    Keep telling yourself that I'm the problem. [emoji23]

    Water Baptism

    Is that what you tell yourself about everyone in this forum? I asked you one question and you dodged it. I'm really not the "stumped one" here. If my opinion about you is SO worthless, why validate it with a response?

    Water Baptism

    Well which is it? Either it's not required, as you said in a previous post or it is required as you're saying now. You can't have it both ways.

    Water Baptism

    Water Baptism not required? Then why did Jesus command His disciples to do so in Matthew 28:19-20? Matthew 28:19–20 (NASB95) 19) Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20)teaching them to observe all that I...

    Water Baptism

    What is Baptism then if not Water and Spirit working together? How are we born again, so that we may enter the Kingdom of Heaven?

    Water Baptism

    I know the truth, already. The questions I ask you, I already know the answers to. Until you understand the whole Bible, you can't help anyone else understand it. Again, your post is focused on human deeds, not on God's work in the life of a sinner.

    Water Baptism

    My interpretation is poor? [emoji23] Please, just stop now. There's nothing to interpret in John 3:5 since Jesus is speaking plainly and not telling a parable or speaking metaphorically. Baptism is exactly what is being discussed. Being born of water and Spirit is what Baptism is! You are...

    Water Baptism

    That isn't an answer to the question I asked you. Since you can't or won't answer the sole question posed to you, I'll address the works-righteous trash you have posted, again. You can't know what sin is until you know what the law is. Paul gives an example of this here: Romans 7:7 (NASB95)...

    Water Baptism

    Who reveals your sins to you? Who shows you that you have sinned against God and are in need of a Savior? Who reveals Jesus Christ as the Savior you need? When you repent, you are responding to all these things being revealed to you. You do not have an active role in your salvation. The Holy...

    Water Baptism

    Water and the word of God are combined in the rite of Baptism. We use water because Jesus said one can not be born again, unless he is born of water and the Spirit. He didn't say water OR the spirit. You say the latter and create two baptisms, instead of the one baptism that Jesus Himself...

    Water Baptism

    How does God deliver forgiveness of sins to the sinner?

    Water Baptism

    It was more humor than a serious theological statement. [emoji4]

    Water Baptism

    Repentance is a fruit of faith, not a cause of it.
