Contuinuing on.... Because one is saved at Baptism, the Lutherans believe that you can lose your salvation....it is very hard to lose but it can be lost. The baptist does not believe you can lose your salvation because the salvation/repentance moment is a sealed contract (covenant?). Losing ones salvation is a bad thing - but the Lutherans must have it in their doctrine because of the infant baptism thing.
HMMMmmm…
Where did I miss THIS fact??
1 Corinthians 1:17
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel--not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
Dang; Paul!
Do you wanna SAVE souls or NOT??
Lutherans are not saved by baptism. They are saved by the Blood of Christ atoning for their sin like every other Christian. Baptism is an actor faith and obedience not salvation .
