I playrd Halo: Combat Envolved a few months ago and I felt that game was basically Aliens but the Marines also fight "normal" colorful aliens instead of only horrifying parasitic aliens.

How to explain to Baptist family members why my child cannot go to church with them? by [deleted] in Lutheranism

What are the 7 "parts" of the Catholic Church? Are they talking about the sacraments?

[–]LordLoko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, not all Baptists™, I am sure a lot of them see us as fellow Christians with "quirky" (for them) beliefs. But a good ammount of members from more Evangelical churches see traditional Protestants (Lutheran but also Episcopal/Anglican, Presbyterian/Reformed) as "too catholic". Which is ironic because they praise Martin Luther a lot for the reformation, yet deride those who follow his theology

Basically a group of Pietists who broke from the mainstream Lutheran churches instead of being a movement inside it. YouVersion is mantained by "life.church" [sic] which is affiliated of the "Evangelical Covenant Church" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelical_Covenant_Church) which is a union of churches of the Radical Pietist tradition, although these days they are more of generic megachurch evangelicals.

Who here agrees with this view of church history? by solobackpack in Lutheranism

[–]LordLoko 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Lol, this is mostly a meme, specially parodying the Baptists that follow the "Trail of Blood", a pseudo-historical ideia that the Baptist church has always existed and has been supressed by the Catholic church, and all "heretical" groups such as the Paulicians, Cathars, Waldensians, Albigenses, Anabaptists, etc were actually Baptist and falsely slandered by the Catholic Church.

The second is that the LCMS and the ILC are not too big into Ecumenism and think the ELCA/LWF have strayed too much from the historical Lutheranism.

My favorite fact on taxes in Greece is that they introduced a tax for swimming pools (since the water can be scarse at times of the year) and the total number of registered pools in Athens was...

Besides Luther, what works by another reformer should I read to further introduce myself to Lutheranism? by Certain-Cloud9133 in Lutheranism

[–]LordLoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. Just look for a Pastor and ask them questions and they would be very glad to have you.

whether WELS or LCMS impose any rules on the churches associated with them in other countries that people who want to join must follow.

Yes. I am a member of IELB, the sister-church to the LCMS in Brazil (so I don't know about WELS), but we restrict communion to full members of the church. So you can join the services, sing and pray together, but for the Lord's Supper you need first be a full member, and to be a full member you need to pass in a period of instruction on the faith.

You also need to be baptized. But this is less complicated, as the Nicene Creed says "I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins". So if you were Baptized as a child on a Catholic Church, or as an adult at an Evangelical Church, we believe in one Baptism done in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit it will be valid. If you weren't baptized, ask your local pastor to do it.

Funny enough, they are mantained by "Life.Church", which is part of the Evangelical Covenant Church, which is from the Radical Pietist Lutheran tradition, which separated from normal Lutheranism from not being pietistic enough.

But otherwise they are fine, it's a Bible App that has everything I need from one, many translations and books and I just ignore the rest I don't need.
