Lutheran Identity? – a conversation starter

In the heady early days of Lutherans blogging I had just opened the predecessor of Blog My Soul for business and regularly participated in discussions on other’s blogs. One of these discussions ended up in a personal exchange, both in blog comments and in e-mail, with Andrew, a student at one of the seminaries who, at the time of the conversation, was serving as vicar. The purpose of posting the conversation is not to evoke a defense of the Scriptures or the Confessions, but to get you thinking about what is it that defines a Lutheran identity (vs. a Christian identity)? Is there a difference? And if there is, what does this mean for us as Lutherans?
