    ( Insert Church here) by Choice and Why Thread

    That's very true. Mind you, in certain areas of the world, only certain churches of a particular sort are available ( because of the historical presence of such churches) and really only moving to another geographic location would be a theoretical option to those who would worship in a way...

    Sinners Prayer in the Bible?

    Amen to that. It is God Himself Who graces us with faith the pray to begin with. The only " sinner's prayer" that counts is a prayer of Confession, followed by the words of Absolution given by God through the mouth of one of His pastors.

    The Lutheran version of the Rosary

    Meditating on the life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ while saying the Lord's Prayer, ten recitations of the Jesus Prayer and then the Glory Be is quite different from praying to one's dead ancestors. One is praying to the Living God.

    The Lutheran version of the Rosary

    To be honest, this Lenten Lutheran prayer bead set that you mention is entirely unknown to me. I do appreciate the meditations offered by the Lutheran ( if not a Rosary, then what should I call it? Meditative Prayer?) beads that are arranged in a similar style to the Dominican Rosary. Yesterday...

    The Lutheran version of the Rosary

    I keep mine in my top dresser drawer. I spoke to my Lutheran pastor before I started using it and he said it was all right, as long as I didn't try to claim it was " essential" for Salvation.

    Gift of Tongues

    Tikka Shaka Zulu haole aloha wahine what?? What language is that, man? Speaking in another language you didn't previously know, but which native speakers of said language understand perfectly? That's what happened on Pentecost and as far as I can tell, that hasn't been replicated since the...

    The Lutheran version of the Rosary

    It isn't terribly widespread. Some regard it as an adiaphora and use it on occasion ( really High Church Lutheran types) and others consider it " Too Roman" and fiercely disagree with its use.

    The Lutheran version of the Rosary

    This isn't often done by Lutherans, but there are some Confessional Lutherans who see these meditations on the Life, Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus Christ as an aid to worship. How to Pray the Rosary as a Lutheran Many within the Lutheran Church encourages members to pray the...

    True enough. Thanks be to God for the Internet. Christians who are orthodox in a certain belief system can find conservative alternatives to the large, mainstream ( and flatlining) denominations that make certain labels famous.

    Indeed. Of course, now there will be people who will try to make political capital off of this.

    USA National Tragedy

    The Holy Gospel. Jesus Christ came to earth to save such as these. He died and was resurrected and reigns with the Father. When the Lord returns in glory, the dead will be resurrected. Jesus had His forty days in the wilderness, His Gethsemane and we were warned that these things would surely...

    Again, interesting. I just don't live in a part of the US where I can see a lot of Word of Faith churches. I'm sure they must have a thriving membership, though.

    WOW. Okay, so you're Nondenominational ( I gathered that much) and you've dealt with Word of Faith congregations? That is interesting, because I always thought that WOF people just watched church on television on Sundays.
