The Book of Concord and Lutheran Confessions can also become an idol. The LCMS can become an idol. The church building can become an idol. Our faith can become an idol. The Bible can become an idol. for most people money is an idol. Whatever you put your trust in becomes an idol. Our God is a jealous God. Thou shalt have no other God's before me.

I don't disagree with you, but I don't see that in our church today.

I don't disagree with you, but I don't see that in our church today.

I, however, have seen it first hand. I used to be blind to it. At one time I thought the only people saved were the members of my own Lutheran congregation. Even sister churches were suspect. I was very comfortable in my pew.
