As I mentioned in another thread, I'm going through the Augsburg Confession, and I'm struggling with a few of the articles. This is one of them. For reference, it reads: [/FONT] I've bolded the part I'm having a problem with. What this seems to say to me is that churches in which the...

Lately I've been studying up Lutheran doctrine. And I can't figure out the difference between the WELS and the LCMS. They both hold to the Confessions being an accurate description of biblical doctrine. Is it primarily small things such as evolution and the like? Or, are there bigger issues...

Calvinists believe that God chose people (or elects them) before the creation of the world. And that He irresistibly draws them to Himself. A site that describes this very well can be found here. Specifically, check out the link called Irresistible grace (Effectual Calling). A relevant quote...

I'm beginning to wonder why there is so much hate and fear on the part of some conservatives towards the liberal Christians.

This is a discussion that I started to have elsewhere, but it didn't go so well. So, I thought it would be a great one to try for our first discussion here. ;) I've been thinking a lot lately about when life begins. I know that the default position of many Christians is that it begins at...

Saving this post for the club rules and for the membership list. For now, let me specifiy that the purpose of this club is for conservative Christians who welcome ecumenical fellowship to get together and talk about stuff. Da Rulz Love the Lord with your heart, soul and mind. Love your...
