exactly what do we claim that is not true?

one thing we claim certainly is true about 70 years ago this conversation would have never taken place
we were like two peas in a pod what one was like so was the other where one did not go so to the other.
which one changed?

remember i am a old fellow and have old

lc_ms resources

i also have most issues of pastor Ottens Christian news

so be sure of what you say.
I don't know anything about CLC but if you have Ottens publications there must be a reason. I also subscribe to CN and like most of what I see.

It's just that both the CLC and the WELS have made statements about the LCMS that we do not believe are accurate.

Also, Herman Otten does not represent the LCMS in any way.

My post was not meant to be an attack or argumentative. While the WELS do claim some things about the LCMS that we believe are not accurate, we still get along and we honor their confessionalism.

My previous post has been edited.
Herman Otten has a large following in LCMS/WELS/ AALC and many other Lutheran denoms so he does represent many people in those synods.

All they do is badmouth the synod they left, though, so what's the point? They moved on, so they need to let it go.

If they think they are going to have any impact with the tactics they're using, from the outside looking in and criticizing, they're sadly mistaken. It's far better to work from within.

I was glad to hear my new pastor discount their opinions for what they are and he's been ordained for 30+ years.

Which is truly sad since he's the king of bashing the eight commandment.
I'll I've ever heard is your OPINIONS. Prove Otten bashes the eight commandment and don't YOU break the eight commandment doing it.

Can't do it can you.

All I've ever heard from this board is OPINIONS and no one has EVER proved ANYTHING. Heresay doesn't count. I get tired of hearing unfounded ideas.

DaRev your insidious slandering of this man is unfounded and is passing on judgement which is not your job. I would think that gossiping would be beneath you.

Ever seen Sach's cartoons? How is that putting "the best construction on all things"?

You're tired of hearing unfounded ideas, yet you read Otten's rag? That's a contradiction of terms. :doh:

The papacy is antichrist, according to the Lutheran Confessions.

But more importantly according to the discription holy scripture it self gives of him .
who else but

"Papam ipsum verum Antichristum esse."

Scripture is the justification given in the confessions.

Upon a more thorough review of the CLC website, I am not impressed. There is definately something I don't trust. I can not quite pin down yet, but I am closing in on it. I will post again in this thread when I know.

Yeah, let me know, too...because that's been bothering me for some time now, especially because I couldn't put a finger on why.

Hubby might've mentioned something about legalism, but don't quote me on that.

Question:

Why are you asking about this? I ask because I am a member of a Lutheran body that is not on the list either, but I have no reason to make a request such as this. Is there a particular reason you feel a need to make this request?

I would ask if the LC-MS was omitted or over looked also.

Why? because no one else has.And since being on this forum does not imply religious fellowship is observed by those here of different Lutheran faiths
we certainly can welcome all confessional Lutherans here.
