    The war of 1812

    Doesn't count if the combatants don't even know the war's over. The Americans didn't battle themselves, you know. :P

    The war of 1812

    Neat. Well, you certainly ( and quite understandably) have the British point of view of that particular affair and I thank you for sharing that point of view here. :) It's always good to have more than one perspective on a certain event.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5

    I attended Sunday School and Church and now I'm eating some cheerios with bananas and getting ready to go to work. Got called in early.

    Now, For Something Completely Different

    It's a legitimate concern, you know at Sunday School today, the topic dealt with prayer. Part of Pastor's lesson made it absolutely clear that we Christians are to pray to God in all circumstances and for all whom we encounter. He also made it abundantly clear that God hates false doctrine and...

    How about the letters penned by God through St. Paul that Christians accept as canonical Scripture?

    Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World, by Eric Metaxas

    You know what, I've often wondered that, too! Of course, you can't relax with the more uptight people who ( I don't know, don't believe that God works through His Sacraments to increase the faith of a believer and lead him or her to salvation) would sooner have grape juice than a shot of...

    Now, For Something Completely Different

    Quite right. I am thinking of the general, " canonical" Christians who accept the authority of Holy Scriptures, the Apostle's Creed, the Nicene Creed and the Athanasian Creed. Many accept the contents of these even if they don't recite them every Sunday ( as my own tradition does).

    That has its own threads.
  16. Confessional Lutheran

    Now, For Something Completely Different

    Yes, definitely regard for the Sacraments ( Baptism, Holy Absolution and the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper) and mutual love. Isn't that what Jesus said: " they'll know you for My disciples, if you have love for one another?" Faith is the root from which love grows and good works are the fruit...

    Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World, by Eric Metaxas

    No, we are not fond of pietism. The closest thing we ever came to a pan- Protestant Council was the Colloquy of Marburg and that kind of exploded in everybody's face ( except for Luther's): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marburg_Colloquy.

    Now, For Something Completely Different

    We are brothers and sisters in Christ and to that end, I'd like to spark a conversation dealing with our common Faith and what unites us as Christians rather than what divides us: #1: The Holy Trinity #2: The use of the Holy Bible ( 66 or 73) #3: Assembling with like- minded brethren on Sunday...

    Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World, by Eric Metaxas

    They most likely were, at that. Of course, as Martin Luther worked on his translation, he also needed to distinguish between the canonical and the apocryphal. If there really was to be a " Council of Mantua," settling the Biblical canon probably would have effected what Luther considered...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5

    Yes, of course! I don't like everything they put on the gyro, so I have them leave off the tomatoes, onions and pickles and keep the lettuce and tzitziki sauce ( together with the lamb and pita bread). It's awesome!
