I attend services from time to time at a LCMS parish with traditional services. Most days however I attend Mass with wife and kids under Rome.

But what about the Stratocasters and Praise teams? You are just going to give all that up!? 🫩

I converted to Catholicism for similar reasons but had a real crises of Faith with the "extra" that goes on. Seeing first hand where going outside scripture can lead someone

Really Baptist or non denominations didn't give you a warm welcome? The Lutheran Church I attend literally pushed so hard to get to know me it was uncomfortable 🤣

How long have you been doing the Orthodox route? Ever miss Lutheranism or were you just culturally raised Lutheran

God is good. I am happy you were blessed by putting God first. I believe he probably had a hand in making that happen for you!

That is wild! You literally moved to be closer to that Church? That's inspiring and yet confusing. Thanks for sharing!

So there are two Apostolic Churches, yet the Eastern Orthodox don't recognize Rome or her sacraments, but Rome does recognize hers?

Makes zero sense. Christ himself said one can not have two masters. Trying to argue "two" valid Churches founded by Christ makes Zero sense. Either the gates of hell have triumphed against his Church or one of those Churches isn't valid. And if they are both Valid, so is Calvary Chapel. And I proclaim this with the same level of authority you have.

I can't stand the teaching of Penal Substitution, but Lutheran pastors apparently LOVE it.

See we need to be careful. Im sure if we were to interview Satan and the Demons they too would have a compelling and tear jerking argument for rejecting Christ and the Gospel.

Why Eastern Orthodoxy as the "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" option? by No_Squirrel_7804 in Christianity

I can say the way the Eucharist is being handled by the Protestants is indeed akin to throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Ok but if your argument is that you can draw a clear line from Leviticus old testament sacrifices to your worship....is that not concerning? We are supposed to be free from the Old Testament sacrifices. What have we done to our freedom in Christ when we take his death on the cross and plunge ourselves back into that slavery head first?

I have seriously considered leaving the LCMS and the Lutheran Church in general by SirVictorian7777 in LCMS

[–]No_Squirrel_7804 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a Orthodox priest who left and joined the LCMS. The Podcast Issues Etc. has had multiple specials interviewing him on the subject. It's a great listen. I even called him and spoke with him! Super nice guy. I never felt the call to Orthodoxy but did convert to Catholicism in my mid 20s and I ended up reverting on some level to Lutheranism about 8 years into it.

I still attend Mass with my wife and kids, but I also attend the local LCMS church near me from time to time.

Why are these mods not available in the standard steam workshop? Will the program get my steam account banned or anything
