REFERENCED IN HOW LUTHERANS WORSHIP – 5: FROM ALDENSWAN.COM As I’ve mentioned recently, I was raised Lutheran. Since leaving the Lutheran Church, I’ve attended and visited a number of different churches, from Greek and Russian Orthodox to Evangelical Free to independent charismatic and “third wave” churches, to post-modern experiments. I can say from experience that [...]

How Lutherans Worship – 3: Confession and Absolution
Moses was told to take off his shoes because he was standing on holy ground. Even so, we must cast away our sins to stand in the presence of God, as the Psalmist reminds us, “Who shall stand in his holy place? He that has clean hands and a pure heart” (Psalm 24). The Didache [...]

Individual Confession and Absolution
Christ comes to you and me through the means of grace: the Holy Scriptures, Baptism, and the Lord’s Supper. He offers forgiveness of sins to us not only through these means of grace, but also through individual confession and absolution.
