Synopsis

""Why Should A Lutheran Not Join Any Sectarian Church?"" is a book written by V. W. Richter in 1913. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the reasons why Lutherans should not join any sectarian church. It delves into the history of the Lutheran Church, its beliefs and practices, and compares them to those of other denominations. Richter argues that the Lutheran Church is the true church founded by Jesus Christ, and that all other churches are sects that have strayed from the true path. He cites various examples from history and scripture to support his claims. The book also discusses the dangers of sectarianism, including the risk of losing one's faith and the potential for division within the church. Richter emphasizes the importance of unity within the Lutheran Church and the need to resist the temptation to join other denominations. Overall, ""Why Should A Lutheran Not Join Any Sectarian Church?"" is a thought-provoking and informative read for anyone interested in the history and beliefs of the Lutheran Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

No harm is intended, much less done to you, kind reader, nor to anyone; for we come to you in the spirit of fairness. We are here to show by comparison the various teachings of denominations from their own writings, and compare them with the Scriptural doctrine of the Lutheran Church. The basis for all arguments is, that the Bible in its every word and letter, all Scripture, 11. Tim. 3:16, is inspired by God, therefore not capable of any error. As such it is, above, and cannot be corrected by human tradition, scientific research and human opinion in general.. It is not our object to enumerate all heresies ever hatched, nor to note every shade of error within the various church bodies ndw existing, but to examine on the most generally accepted, and therefore most conspicuous false teachings now in vogue. We wish -distinctly to render a service, not only to those that were reared in the Lutheran faith and wish to guard against backsliding, but to every earnest seeker after the truth. We are convinced that only a close and careful investigation of existing differences in doctrine will satisfy such a person. In fact, we wish to be understood as offering peace, not by setting aside the differences, but by submitting them to the proper court of appeals. And we heartily believe that all those differing from distinctly Lutheran teaching, do not believe that part of their tenets which is not Lutheran, for two reasons: First, because any tenet not based on Scripture cannot be an object of faith. Faith as distinguished from superstition or illusion, grasps a clearly revealed knowledge of Bible facts. A gain, because every Christian at hart will give and ascribe all glory to God for his salvatipn, as does the Lutheran Church. May the good Lord bless these efforts to convince a goodly number of the fact that the Lutheran Church remains in the Word of Christ, where others
