You have no idea what my Church teaches and it seems you could not give two shouts about it either. The Confessional Lutheran Church is all about the fulfilment of the law and the atonement won for all mankind through the sacrifice of my Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. The Sacraments and traditions of the Church handed down by faithful Christians long before your self defined do-it-yourself church of one was even thought of, are a manifestation and expression of the living Word of God that dwells among us and we within it. Unless you can open your mind to these things that are our inheritance form the great cloud of witnesses spoken of in Scripture.Limits on God?
No my friend. Just taking God at his word.
God said ALL SCRIPTURE is inspired.
He did not hint or tell us that any other form of communication would be inspired.
That is what happens when we put the words of men above the word of God in scripture..
Nope. He sent the church out. What did he say was the churches mission?
Luke 24: 46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, 47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And you are witnesses of these things. 49 Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”
there is the mission of the church my friend. God into satan's domain, Go through the gates of hell which will never prevail. and teach the gospel of salvation to all nations..
see above.
When your church does not even teach the message of forgiveness by through the blood. You need all these things outside the word of God. because otherwise. people would read the word and your religion would be exposed (sound familiar?)
Yes, God will judge me.. Its not for us to judge othersJudgement is mine, says the Lord, so all will face it.
And you know this how?You have no idea what my Church teaches and it seems you could not give two shouts about it either.
My brother plays organ for a Lutheran church.

Maybe open your eyes to God and not religion.If you are so blind that you can not see it, then I will pray for the restoration of your vision.
And you know this how?

YepI have friends, co-workers, and acquaintances who are very knowledgeable about cars. I really don't know anything about cars. So when I talk about cars I usually end up saying things that make it obvious that I don't know anything about cars.
Which means... what exactly? I'm reminded of that scene in Space Balls where Rock Moranis' character Dark Helmet says to Bill Pullman's character, "I am your father's, brother's, nephew's, cousin's, former roommate."

Itchy ears and eyes only see and hear what they want to. I'm starting to really understand why you despise those of us traditional Christians who are resolute in our faith. Like Donald Trump, keep talking and someone will think you know what your are talking about. Have at it; but I am not buying it.And you know this how?

BTW, you just described confessional Lutheranism.Yep
so it is not all the things we see in our churches. the religious ceremonies. the customs. and the theater type plays we see every Sunday.
It is God. and people getting together in his name, and as Paul said
And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Thats the NT church in a nutshell. they met in peoples homes. Not glorious building. they studied the apostles doctrine, they Had fellowshio one with another. they Ate meals together which also taking the lords supper, and they prayed together
Yet you know so little of Lutheran belief and practise.My brother plays organ for a Lutheran church. I have been there many times..
