Texas Youth Gathering??? LCMS or non demon?

[RadMan]

What do we learn of the LCMS from her own words based on the website of the LCMS Texas Lutheran Youth Gathering? Of the six speakers and worship leaders described above, four are not from the LCMS. The two that are from the LCMS have been shown, in the LCMS’s own words, to have problematic doctrine connected with their home congregations. What's even remotely Lutheran about this gathering?

A Woman Pastor from a Charismatic Church as Conference Lead Worshiper

Speaker Denver Moore is a Baptist Pastor

Speaker Ron Hall is a Member of Union Gospel Mission

Speaker Fred Lynch is a Non-Denominational Pastor

Pastor Peter Luedemann is the worship leader for the Texas Lutheran Youth Gathering. The statement of belief for his home congregation does not mention the sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s Supper.

The DCE who is Teaching the Gathering Bible Study is Described as a Bishop of His Congregation’s Satellite “Ministry"

I haven't heard one word about there being any such gathering, so is it really aimed at LCMS youth at all?

 

[RadMan]

Good question, but it was sent to me through the Concordia University System of LCMS.

Looks as though the Texas District is going to hell in a hand basket.

So anyone not in LCMS or practicing incorrect LCMS doctrine is going to hell?

Disappears again.

Yep

I don't think it's unreasonable to have proper LCMS doctrine taught by LCMS pastors at what is supposed to be an LCMS youth conference. But since you appear to think that that is unreasonable, why do you think so?

I don't think it's unreasonable at all. I just don't like it when people say that no one other than their denomination is saved.

I know what DaRev meant. I just don't like how he worded it.

What do you mean "not exist on CF"? We can see you are here.

What DaRev used was a figure of speech. You see a lot of that type of talk amongst adults. We know what was meant by it. He didn't say that any other denom wasn't saved. It would be akin to a Baptist youth gathering being taught by Catholics. It makes no sense, and is confusing to those in attendance. I would never have let my kids go to something like that.

I don't know why you took DaRev's figure of speech as a condemnation of all those who aren't LCMS. His statement doesn't even make sense if you apply a bit of logic. Just how do you fit an entire district into a handbasket? And how does that handbasket survive the trip from this world to the next?

 

[Radiata]

That was just me being dumb.


I realized later that it must have been a figure of speech.


I haven't made a post since Ben's death.


I'm not over it yet.


I don't know when I might be regularly posting again.

Last fall, when I was able to access a computer while in the hospital...I said some pretty awful and dumb things. I said unkind things to people who surely did not deserve my wrath. My mind and heart were in so much pain. I learned a lesson in that.

It may be best to wait a couple of days, during your grieving, and then come back here. Just some words from one who's gone before you.

Then don't read it.

It's linked from the home page of the Texas District, so it seems to be legit.
