Im 26. I work for a firm, and my location I will keep private because it is irrelevent for this discussion. I am not here on behalf of my firm, so I prefer not to discuss.

Leviticus 19:18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
Leviticus 19:34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

It's funny, I'm called unsaved trash under my s/n and am also "under investigation". Most forums just refer to recent sign-ups as "newbies" or "apprentices" or the like. You make the presumption that the Lord speaks to, and through, you. You are also "under investigation". And so far, you seem to be lacking. Humility, for one. I recognize that in the eyes of the Lord, I am but dust, not worthy to take the vengeance The Holy Father claimed for himself.
But I detect an anger and viciousness here. I hope to learn more about your culture of superiority to others about whom you apparently know nothing.
Many of the posters here display an absolutely astounding ignorance. But we are all ignorant of many things, and this God-fearing man is no exception. What I find remarkable is the willingness to display this towering ignorance, as if waving a banner with "ignorant in the name of Our Lord" on it. Does anyone study anything other than the "Good Book"?
If this is the only book the LBC members pass before their eyes, it explains much. Even at that, though, the outright hatred and unreasoning fear that can be easily seen in the posts of many is hard to reconcile with the teachings of Our Lord Jesus.

You certainly display a great deal of hubris for questioning the policies of God's One and Only True Church™ on this planet, in addition to proudly proclaiming your humility.

There is an introduction forum that you might want to avail yourself of, and the Pastors here are eager to answer your questions.

Praise Jesus!

What you call hubris, I call intelligence. An open and questioning mind is both sword and shield against evil. I need no introduction forum. Just reading the posts of the Pastors and moderators is sufficient. Funny, though that God chose both the LBC and the Jewish people. How do you reconcile these claims?

Would you proudly march into your local Jewish Temple and proclaim that Jesus was the true Messiah and that Judaism was false? Would you then start hurling insults against them while waving a sarcasm sign?

You are being boorish and ill mannered. You came here, where it plainly says "Unsaved Unwelcome". We did not come to you.

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

Acts 8
Philip and the Ethiopian
36-37
As they travelled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, Look, here is water. Why shouldn't I be baptised?

38 And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptised him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing.

And i know some of you may be saying, well he broke the first commandment by being a eunuch therefore not being able to be fruitful and multiply.

Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace you are saved through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”

So, why wouldnt he be saved?

Another thing is I fail to see why us Lutherans are under your hit list, why am i unsaved when i believe in Jesus

Jesus saves ALL who believe in him

This is in the KJV
4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

I agree with some of your threads and disagree with others, we are here to save all not unwelcome them into the kingdom of God and shun others away like you are promoting by the content you are claiming on this website

You attend a false church that teaches from a false Bible. Your founder Martin Luther was one of the worst racists and anti-semites of all time. Your false church came directly out of the papist cult. I could go on and on.

Take a look at THIS.

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

And i will enlighten you with a website

http://www.biblebelievers.com/jmelton/BaptistBrider.html

I do announce my sins only to God in a open conversation the way my church teaches is MUCH different than any church ive been to, and ive seen methodist catholiscism AND baptist.

This is poppycock foolishness, not founded upon the Word of God. The Lutheran church prefers to call it the "Sacrament of the Alter" (holy communion) this is what the site you recomended me said, wrong wrong and wrong again!

My church has NEVER called it a sacrament, we define it as the Lords supper and ive been to 5 or 6 other Lutheran churches who call it the Lords Supper and use it as a time of remembrance not of using it as a Sacrament

[X The Steve X]

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

I do not know how to edit my last response so another thing i would like to point out

http://www.lcms.org/pages/internal.asp?NavID=2219

The main highlights :
Simply stated, The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod believes, teaches and confesses that in Christ alone is there salvation -- by grace alone, through faith alone, on the basis of Scripture alone. To share this message with the world is the mission of the church and the reason for its existence.

So with your http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False...n_religion.htm that you gave me it says that we hold worship to mary and hold worship to the saints, if you were to read the website i pointed out to you it clearly states that we do not. We hold them to value and recognize them but not EVER do we pray to them.

"I am a Christian, plain and simple. I do not pride myself in being part of any denomination or religious camp. I am a Christian! Why do nearly all religious people have a dyer need to wear a label of some sort?" a quote from your website you gave me, he is pointing to all denominations and is pointing towards yours as well, might not want to give me sources to use against you.

[Pastor Ezekiel]

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

Riiiight.

The mary worshipers say the same thing. No one believes you.

[X The Steve X]

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

So, i love how you ignore everything else i say and dont even take the time to make a valid argument of my caliber. This shows how stubborn you are in saying im a mary worshipper.


John 3:16 (King James Version
16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:16 (New International Version)
16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Now, since im lutheran i have to be misguided!!!! but where does this differ?? Please explain how you are set away from ALL others maybe it is YOU who is living the lie.

Acts 10

44While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. 45The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles. 46For they heard them speaking in tongues[b] and praising God.
Then Peter said, 47"Can anyone keep these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have." 48So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days.

The gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on EVEN THE GENTILES, with which we are from. Both jewish and gentiles is what the WHOLE christian church is from. Making pokes and brash comments towards every other denomination when we are from the same one.

Are you referring to the Last Supper? Or the supper of some other lord? What difference does it make what you call it?

well obviously it matters towards ezekiel because

whatever he thinks must be right
