Be careful on what you think you know
Lutherans are Protestants (in fact, the original Protestants); Lutheranism is a subcategory of Protestantism. There is no significant doctrinal difference that I'm aware of as a Lutheran from most mainline Protestant denominations, other than the emphasis on salvation by grace and not works.
Lutheranism traces its history all the way back to Martin Luther, the father of the Protestant Reformation. The beliefs of Lutheran Protestants stem from Martin Luther's rejection of central teaching of the Catholic Church

Lutherans believe (or did when I was young) that it is the body and blood of Christ. Not that it was transformed by a priest.
when the dust settles and the smoke clears all that matters is I hear the words " well done my good and faithfully servant "

When you finish throwing stones, you'll just have to forgive me of my lack of religious indoctrination, because I've forgiven you of false judgment on me. You put words in my mouth. Tamatoes or Tamatoes, it's all the same to me. When I take communion the bread I eat and the cup I drink IS His body and blood at least in my mind. There's even more to communion than that, it's intimacy with Him, partaking of the word, written and rhema, but there's no need for me to go into that with you.
Is it possible that religious indoctrination has stopped the ears and hardened the hearts of them that study it to a point they have missed the whole reason God gave His Son, intimate relationship. I think so, and it shows.
You keep throwing stones son- WHY
You have made 2 contradictory statements!
"He's wrong according to his statement, "not one passage says it's symbolic". He's wrong, unless your just trying to be funny, because it's actually 2 passages.

So which way do you believe?

So here's a question. What exactly was the Last Supper? Was it just a meal that he happened to discuss some hidden never before revealed information? Or was it something much bigger? I'll let everyone think on it for a while and I'll be back.
Done with reminding myself how ignorant we all are and tired of tasting blood.
Guess I'll stop biting my tongue and just think about how this part of castboolits shouldn't be turned into Gehenna Mk.II.
Bright spot of my week... unpacking a box I found my big old KJV companion study bible and the equally big Strong's Concordance (pre-Nelson thank you very much). And the Greene's Interlinear four volume set and the Englishman's Hebrew Concordance.
I'm about like Jethro Bodine, "HOT DOG!" Already dove head first into a new study of the "third day" and three days.
And to top it all off I got a little batch of .393 x .87 long hollow bases cast, 15 of them patched, they're drying and will be ready to size .399" diameter and try out in the .40 bore Great Plains Rifle. Trying to come up with a light weight low inertia boolit that will seal off the rifling with a light charge.
Sweet dreams. G'nite yall.

So did he not have to follow the law just because he was the Son of God? And why are you preaching or trying to teach? I thought that was your priests job?
Me preach/teach? Heaven forbid, don't twist what I say into that. Just telling it as I see it, if you can't handle that, it's your problem, not mine.
BTW, yes my Priest teaches and does a very good job of it, you might try a Catholic service sometime, might open your eyes.

Put me down as a guy who believes the bread and wine are symbolic (like a "door" or "vine"). Communion was meant as a memorial rather than taking an actual part of Christ into your body as least if you go by Jesus' words.
"Do this in remembrance of me."
I'm sure I changed no minds.
Who are these prophecies warning against?
1Ti 4:1-4
The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.
They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth.
For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
I asked this back in post 50 and still haven't gotten an answer? What Christian religion forbids marriage, or what you eat?
