    Snake Handling Churches

    Thank God it isn't a part of my community. I did kill a snake in the backyard of the church one time years ago. I guess I handled it then. I threw it into a empty lot next to the church for the birds to eat after I killed it

    Trump recognizes Jerusalem

    Rather than being a symbolic act and leading to a lot of violence I'm not sure what difference it really makes to me.

    the fruit of the Spirit

    Galatians 5:22-25 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live...

I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them...

    What do Lutherans believe?

    I'm curious. If a person who did not grow up Lutheran expressed a desire to become Lutheran would he or she have to attend classes and acknowledge or endorse that they believe this? If they did not would it exclude the person from taking part in communion?

    What do Lutherans believe?

    That is my understanding of what Catholics believe. But he is saying that Lutherans reject that. So i'm completely confused about in what sense it is presence? is God hovering over the elements? Is he more presence when the elements are shared because my view is that God is present...

    What do Lutherans believe?

    I find the belief to be illogical. I hear what your saying, but in what sense is it presence? If the bread is bread and the wine is wine in what way is it presence?

    What do Lutherans believe?

    No, I don't understand either. I read it over several times. It can't be bread and wine and also body and blood. It's not so much a mystery as it is a contradiction. You can't really have it both ways. That makes no sense at all

    What do Lutherans believe?

    No, it makes no sense to me at all. When Jesus first celebrates the Lord's Supper with him Luke 22:14-19 NIV says 4 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. 15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell...

    What do Lutherans believe?

    I was quoting from a web site you gave about Lutherans earlier in this thread. I didn't just google it. https://www.lcms.org/about/beliefs look it up under Lord's Supper. The quote I gave is on page 1.

    What do Lutherans believe?

    Under the Lord's Supper the pamphlet about it says "The Lutheran church believes,teaches and confesses that the Lord’s Supper is the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ,under the bread and wine,given to us Christians to eat and to drink. We hold that the bread and the wine in the...

    Taking Thoughts Captive

    Well, that's interesting. Romans 12:2 is a command to renew your mind. So why would it ask you to do something that you don't do? I'm not trying to be a smart aleck. I struggle with some negative thoughts sometimes and would like to do better at this

    Why I Gave Up

    I wanted to do the same thing this year and told my wife this, but she talked me into putting it up. We use to go all out for Christmas with lights and everything, but the tree is it this year.

    Taking Thoughts Captive

    We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV The Bible says a lot about controlling and renewing our thoughts. The verse above calls it taking captive every...
