    Being Christian

    I know from first hand experience - not in prison but from living in Sweden - that Scandinavian countries do have prisons like that. I imagine a search of youtube will yield the Norwegian prison guards and prisoners singing independent of Michael Moore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB037gVIpJc

    Confusion over Lutheran teaching on Salvation ... they come by it honestly

    Slogan theology - like Once Saved Always Saved - is always going to fall far short of the mark. Nobody really understands a slogan the "right" way because slogans are not really coherent. They are supposed to be short pithy summaries of some more complex thing. If Calvinism is reduced to Once...

    Confusion over Lutheran teaching on Salvation ... they come by it honestly

    I admit to rejecting Calvinism regarding its TULIP formulation of soteriology (maybe TULIP covers other things too but it appears that its theme is soteriological) and I never warmed very much to John Wesley's soteriology and now that I look at a Lutheran (Missouri synod) view of the same topic...

    Five Reasons Why Babies Should be Baptized...

    I did and you said That's my response to you and it won't change, the response you gave was entirely unrelated to my question. I asked "who ought to expect forgiveness without repentance" and you told me about "Those who receive the gift of repentance ..." I thought the adamant statement "That's...

    Five Reasons Why Babies Should be Baptized...

    I am unsure of the meanings that Lutherans attach to words. I haven't managed to get a comprehensible response to this statement "No one ought to expect forgiveness without repentance". When I ask "who ought to expect forgiveness without repentance" the reply didn't attempt to answer the...

    Copyism

    Scandinavia is wonderful - they have a registered religion called Copyism (Swedish spelling is kopimism) - in which the central act of worship is file sharing. I believe the religion was started as something of a joke. Somebody applied for registration and because it met all the criteria for...

    murdering ideas

    It's been a few months since I wrote the original post in this thread. If I try hard I may remember the context that encouraged me to write it. Let's see how I go ...

    I wonder if friend atpollard missed the reply shown here Honest answer. In our baptismal liturgy the parents and God parents of the child are asked "What do you ask of God's Church for <name of child>.?" and the normal answer is "baptism" but alternatives are available and for your question...
