When we talk about the lutheran dition in the reformation, it's like saying, evangelical lutheran. And so obviously your dad doesn't call you any more, non toe dalkd in ears, noa. The image that luther always had in his mind is the image of christ that you've ever seen it, where he's got kind of a sword coming out of one side of his mouth and a lily coming out of the other side. It just just terrified him. He took god very seriously.
When it comes to discussing our differences, there is a lot of value in a genuine conversation. Rooted in humility, we have much to learn from each other, and we may find we have more in common than we realize. In this episode of White Horse Inn, Michael Horton interviews Pastor Bob Hiller about the distinctives within the Lutheran tradition. As they discuss the great debates that often arise between Lutherans and Presbyterians, they also explore the pastoral nature of Lutheran theology. Holding firm to the promise of Christ’s forgiveness. the Lutheran tradition aims to combat theological systems threatening to destroy the Christian’s comfort—an endeavor esteemed by all Reformation traditions and joined by all who sit around the White Horse Inn table.
