Hi guys,
I have been learing about Lutheranism and though I grew up Baptist, there are parts of it that I do appreciate and admire. I'm not necessarily wanting to convert, but depending on what I read and if I find a church I like, ya never know.
In my reading, I haven't come across the significance of saints. I know Catholics have this process of "canonizing" a person as a "Saint"... But I wonder what the Lutherna perspective is. Aren't we all saints? What makes someone get the title "St. whatever" vs. just their name?
Thanks,
Michael
