about your Church? I am posting this in the various denominations forums, to see what I could not 'get' from each denominations or churches, because I often judge according to what I expect to find. I could ask, but again my questions could be guided by what I expect to find, so surprise me!
Well, so what's the so differnt about the Luterans? :help:

Lutherans are extremely Christ-focused. Lutherans know that God uses both Law and Gospel and each has purpose. Lutherans believe that forgiveness of our sins was won at the cross and that salvation comes from God 100%. Lutherans believe that in baptism, God washes away our sins and clothes us in Christ's righteousness that was won at the cross. We believe that in the Lord's supper, the body and blood are in with and under the bread and wine.
The Lutheran Church service is one that focuses on God's gifts to us and in return we give praise and Thanksgiving.
Lutherans look forward to His second coming so that we may have eternal life.
I know there's more, but those are some general statements.
